And so I want to tell you, we hear what the left says. Actually, typically they don't have an answer for the question of what is a woman. Charlie can attest. It's always a circular reasoning, right? A woman is a woman. That's what it is. They don't have an answer.

But I do want to tell you how to answer this because President Trump just signed a beautifully and thoroughly written executive order declaring there are only two sexes and how he goes on to define woman in this executive order. is adult, human, female. And then it further goes on to define female as someone who does have, should have, or will have the capability to produce ova or eggs.

The thing is, I don't even, I think the other side understands that and is willing to admit that. And that's the problem, right? You're right. It goes back to the first book. Of course, we can speak about this all day long from an objective standpoint, from the standpoint of biological reality. Understanding that men punch 60% harder. Of course, they throw further. They run faster.

They can jump higher. We can talk about that all day long. But to your point, more importantly is what it says in the Bible. It goes back to the first book. He created them male. and female intentionally and uniquely in his perfect image. And to deny that or to attempt to alter that is to do is to deny God. It's as simple as that.

And I, the other side, I don't even think they have a problem admitting that anymore. They understand and they're totally okay with, with the thought of themselves being their own God, which I think is, is the scary part. And definitely like you're, you're referring to, it's the root of the problem.

Oh, gosh. We could spend the rest of our allotted time talking about this. I will say it's remarkable the shift that we have seen, again, when you compare now to three years ago. And that's across every realm of society, right? Even on... you know, watching the football field, you've got people like Nick Bosa out there doing the little Trump dance. That couldn't have happened three years ago.

He was fined over $11,000 for wearing a MAGA hat. They told him, they asked him, you know, do you regret this? He said, no, I would do it again. The next day he gets out there and does that little dance. And while that dance might seem silly, it might seem like it's, you know, just a silly little movement celebration.

Let me just tell you actually what my university did to me. Take you back to 2021, 2022.

I will never forget when we learned of who Will Thomas was, when we learned he was going to be competing in the pool with us, when we learned he was going to be sharing a locker room with us. My whole team opposed this, right? My team of 40 girls, none of us thought this was fair or safe or righteous or moral or just by any means. But our university, they sat us down in a room.
