Transcripts

well I for one have had enough of

this hi my name is Sydney welcome back

to hell and as per usual before we

launch in today's video is sponsored by

fume now firstly before we get into the

important stuff with relation to this

video I want to apologize for

disappearing for the last few months I

won't lie a bunch of things were going

on I guess they still are going on uh in

my personal life that uh that have not

been excellent such as familial deaths

and um really not epic medical diagnosis

diagnosis diagnosis the point is these

things have required my attention and um

being that I am a regular human being

they do affect me and sometimes you just

you got to take a break the other thing

that I would like to say is the biggest

of thank yous to everybody who placed a

lion te exchange order and then all of

the kindness and Pence patients that

went along with that while we worked

through some of the very unforeseen and

very annoying issues that we experienced

during launch because no matter how much

you try to plan and do everything

correctly life will still kick you in

the face write that down put it on a

shirt the point is thank you so much for

your support thank you so much for your

orders thank you the most for your

patience I mean I really mean that thank

you so much for your patience and uh

it's been really rewarding reading your

feedback now that most of you have

received your tee

I'm really really excited with how

excited you guys are and uh yeah I'm

looking forward to Growing this thing

and doing much more cool stuff all right

enough disclaimers onto the video now if

you've been here for any length of time

you will probably already know how I

feel about the Erasure of women you also

probably know that I know that you are

very burned out by this topic at this

stage and honestly that's pretty fair

enough it actually feels like every time

we turn around there is some new

component to the trans debate that is

dominating everybody's attention and

after a while and I think most of us are

here at this stage it's exhausting and

although it's no less important now than

it was when it initially started

cropping up there's only so much a

person can tolerate before you just want

to throw yourself into the sea I am

extremely scared of the ocean and at

this point I am ready to throw myself

into it but something happened recently

with relation to this topic that I think

is really important to highlight and to

discuss for a number of reasons and it

concerns the Australian Surfer brand Rip

Curl choosing a transgender male as one

of their new brand ambassadors now I get

it at this point it seems like every

single notable brand has decided to work

alongside a transgender person but the

reason this particular situation is a

complete train wreck is because Rip Curl

cut ties with a well-known Surfer called

Bethany Hamilton in November 2023 after

she publicly stated her opposition to

gender ideology policies that allow

males to compete compete in women's

sports and specifically that allow men

to compete in female surfing

competitions so I want to explain the

ins and outs of this situation because

honestly the more you get into it the

worse it gets but I also want to

highlight the reality that an actual

woman not only opposed a policy that she

believed to be unfair towards other

actual women but voiced her support for

other actual women and as a result of

that she lost opportunities and then the

brand in question went and brought on a

man who identifies as a woman to replace

the actual woman who is voicing those

exact concerns I hate it here and if

that doesn't illustrate the insane

amount of contempt that these Brands and

organizations have for women in the

first place I don't know what will so

that's what we're going to talk about

today the absolute stupidity that is

this Rip Curl situation and the

ramifications when women say enough is

enough and speaking of ramifications you

know what has really bad ones your bad

habit which is why today's video is

sponsored by fume it is a brand new year

children and you know what that means

there is no better time than now to

ditch your bad habit hello no more cold

turkey no more crying in your bed

because you la

willpower it is your time to shine and

what better way to do that than with

fume fume is this neat Innovative

award-winning flavored air device and to

be clear your fume is not a vape it has

no heating components so rather than

inhaling gross chemicals you're instead

breathing in all natural flavored air

which is great because fume has several

delicious flavors to choose from

including my two favorites crisp mint

and sparkling grapefruit because really

or crisp minty air I know which way I'd

go in addition to the yo flavors fume

dial and movable parts and magnets to

keep your fingers occupied and to Cap

posted a video to their women focused

Instagram page Rip Curl women that

featured a transgender Surfer called

Sasha Jane lerson this video has since

been deleted but the caption originally

described the 44-year-old lerson as a

West Australian waler woman who loves

the freedom found in surfing

disconnecting from the mainstream and

the feeling of dancing on constantly

changing waves and likely knowing the

push back that was on the horizon for

this post the brand locked their

Instagram comments in an effort to limit

blowback these companies are only

stunning and brave behind the comment

lock cowards as of recording this video

lerson is still present in another video

posted by ripc women that shows the

surfer amongst the other mostly young

female brand ambassadors now very

obviously but I have to add this before

lerson became associated with Rip Curl

the surfer had almost exclusively

competed in male competitions in an

interview with the protrans publication

them in February 2023 lerson said I've

been a professional longboard Surfer for

many years and in that time I hid in the

closet basically I tried to transition

at 19 and then again at 29 and now in my

early 40s I've been successful after

spending the majority of Life competing

as a male lerson began popping up on the

female scene around 2022 and because it

almost always goes this way lerson got

push back almost immediately everyone

wants to always act like my homeland is

so leftist which it is in a lot of ways

don't get me wrong but my people we we

suffer new fools unless it has to do

with something political then then

sometimes times fery has suffered I

don't know it's been a while since I've

been home don't listen to me I see you

guys with your Invasion Day protests

just put that away in March of 2022

lison placed ninth in the NSA Festival

of Surfing becoming the first transwoman

to compete in surfing at the

professional level two months later

loison placed first in the open women's

longboard and women's logger divisions

at the West Coast suspension state

championships only 3 years earlier lison

was competing as a man and and took the

top position in the men's category in

2023 when the world surf League updated

their guidelines permitting men to

compete in women's competitions if they

meet specific requirements lerson

celebrated the announcement brah

celebrating something like this kind of

feels like the equivalent of libertarian

politicians getting together to Pat

themselves on the back for the three

people who voted for

them I'm just saying I hate that we are

becoming that one South Park episode I

can't tell you how free I feel now that

I've started identifying as a woman now

with all of that in mind this situation

really doesn't seem too different to

other situations that include Brands

bringing on a trans identified

individual as a woman's Ambassador or

whatever and at this point I would say

that many of us women are used to

watching female specific spots and

opportunities being taken and given to

men who identify as women you need only

look at all the men receiving Woman of

the Year Awards because at this point

the one thing that you don't need to be

to be considered a woman is a woman no

specific chromosomes necessary only

feelings it's uh it's not great but like

I mentioned earlier this situation is

worse for a couple reasons and the first

and probably the biggest is Bethany

Hamilton Hamilton is one of the best

known Surfers the world over she has

also had a long-standing relationship

ship and partnership with Rip girlr

Hamilton who was already known for her

skill became the subject of huge media

attention in 2003 when at the age of 13

she decided to go surfing with her best

friend her father and her brother out of

nowhere she was attacked by a tiger

shark her arm was bitten off in the

attack and I mean that literally uh like

it was just taken off below the shoulder

and very nearly killed her this was of

course huge news especially in the

surfing community

and from what I understand but please

don't quote me on this Rip Curl was

actually Hamilton's sponsor when the

attack occurred the brand then went on

to become one of Hamilton's longest

lasting Partnerships in all the decades

that have followed that's more

consistent than Joe Biden's marriage but

in February of

2023 this changed the world surf League

released their transgender policy and

Hamilton took to social media to express

her concern in the clip Hamilton asked

the question of who is pushing for this

change in her sport who decided the

rules surrounding the level of

testosterone required to compete in

female divisions and why there is no

mention of trans identified women who

want to compete with men I personally

think that the best solution would be to

create a different division so that all

can have a fair opportunity to showcase

showcase their passion and talent and I

think it's really hard to imagine the

future of women's what the future of

women's surfing will be like in 15 to 20

years down the road if we move forward

um allowing this major change but we are

seeing glimpses of male-bodied dominance

in women's sports like running swimming

and others my hope is that if I ever

have a daughter who is competing in

surfing or any sport and also for all

the aspiring Young Generation of women

to have a bright and promising

opportunity in her ambition to be the

best of the best women in her sport I

personally won't be competing in or

supporting the world surf league if this

rule remains thanks in her reaction to

the new guidelines Hamilton also

threatened to boycott the world's surf

league and has been outspoken in support

of fairness in women's sports on social

media ever since you know it's kind of

funny getting her arm literally torn off

her body was not enough to get Bethany

Hamilton out of the water a shark

couldn't get her to stop her sport but

the unfairness of men competing against

women in her sport that has almost

caused her to leave and I feel like that

is pretty significant one might even

argue that means gender ideology is

worse than a shark attack yeah noodle on

that one although I will reiterate that

the ocean is terrifying and I don't know

why people go in it

you need help in a follow-up video

Hamilton noted how she knew she would

receive blowback after expressing her

opinions and questions on this matter

she said that many female Surfers feel

similarly to her but fear speaking out

publicly for fear of the same blowback

and backlash this is why she was

prepared to do so because someone has to

Hamilton's response reportedly didn't

sit very well with ripc who had included

Sasha lerson in their 2023 summer looks

good on you campaign and I have to

imagine that this didn't sit too well

with Hamilton either given that she had

been very vocal and made her opinions

about the fairness in this situation

very clear so by November 2023 despite

having several years left on an existing

contract with Rip Curl the two-p parted

ways now once again on the surface all

of this is pretty textbook woman gets

ousted for expressing her opinions about

men participating in female sports bran

brings on man who identifies as a woman

to appear inclusive and tolerant

everybody celebrates said brand for

being inclusive and tolerant while women

get sidelined but Bethany Hamilton in a

way had made herself a pariah in her

Sport and I think she's been punished

for speaking out way more than people

realize based on some of the things that

I found and read with relation to this

story it seems like Bethany Hamilton

made a bunch of people in the world surf

League extremely mad for example and

full disclosure I can't actually confirm

this story this is based on articles

that I read so just bear that in mind

after Hamilton's comments were made the

world surf League was hosting an event

as part of the 2023 Championship tour

that opened on March 8th this coincided

with International women's day to

celebrate professional Surfers were

encouraged to put the names of an iconic

female athlete on the back of their

jerseys for the event a woman called

Betty Lu Sakura Johnson as to wear

Hamilton's name the world surf League

reportedly banned her from doing so

Sakura Johnson was reportedly asked to

choose a different female athletes name

allegedly because of Hamilton's

criticism of the League's new

transgender policy and I am willing to

bet that this is not the only time that

Hamilton has been treated like this I

think for me the bottom line is that

these Brands don't actually care about

women and the sporting organizations

don't actually care about women either

what they care about for whatever reason

is appearing tolerant inclusive and

Progressive and I think the reason that

this particular situation is so

egregious is because the woman in

question epitomizes many of the things

that other women want to emulate and

that Brands apparently want to put out

into the world which is strength

resilience Bethany is a mother and she

seems like a wonderful one at that and

the these are old qualities that many

women want to have and yet she was

dropped by a brand and ostracized in a

way by a sporting organization because

she spoke up and defended other women

and the way that that brand and sporting

organization decided to proceed was by

integrating the very kind of person that

is undermining Womanhood to begin with

but perhaps the icing on the cake of

this story is that Sasha lon's social

media has since been made private but

prior to this happening people noted a

distressing pattern of lerson posting

racy photos in lingerie in suggestive

poses many of these images had captions

that alluded to surfing on this point

and I think this is important to note a

female athlete would never be taken

seriously if she did something like this

and many female athletes work incredibly

hard to not be sexualized and treated

like tokens of their sex and then you

have this person posting photos dressed

in bottomless lingerie and we're

supposed to act like this is normal and

or ignore it but unfortunately I can't

and if I have to see it so do you you

guys have been here for long enough you

know them's the rules I don't make them

I just enforce them because if I am not

torturing you are we even really on the

hell Gondola together no no we are not

and we are bonded together by disgust

the sad thing in what I am describing to

you is that of of course this is not an

isolated incident and there are plenty

of other transgender athletes who also

act provocative and sexualized when they

are not competing now for whatever

reason there is this weird convergence

happening across sporting bodies in some

sports the governing organizations have

finally started listening to female

competitors and have started dialing

back the insane policies that were

instituted to ACC accomodate people who

participate in gender ideology such as

the North American grappling Association

and the British cycling Federation I

think that's the name of it British

cycling Federation but on the other hand

for whatever reason there are sporting

buddies who are instead doubling down

like the world surf league and the

Canadian powerlifting Federation but the

one constant that remains in both

situations is that female athletes are

having to walk away from their Sports

from many opportunities from trophies

from all sorts of major accomplishments

in order to send the message that the

disrespect and the unfairness will not

be tolerated and as a result and

thankfully some sporting organizations

are waking up to the fact that they are

doing wrong by their female competitors

but often it takes these ladies

physically walking away walking out of

tournaments and competitions events and

saying no more for tangible change to be

made we saw it with relation to Lynn

pinches in the UK who walked out on a

championship pool match because she

refused to face a trans competitor and

with Jaden Alexander who walked out on a

grappling tournament because she didn't

want to Grapple any longer with trans

identified males it was only after these

women and several others walked away

from these opportunities that meaningful

change was made but in other cases

like those of April Hutchinson and

Bethany Hamilton this has gone the

opposite way April Hutchinson was

suspended by the Canadian powerlifting

Federation because she spoke out against

a male powerlifter who was competing in

female competitions and we obviously

know how Bethany Hamilton situation has

gone down watching these sporting

organizations Double Down is honestly

incredibly bizarre it almost feels like

gender ideology is a beast that's been

backed into a corner and as of right now

it's all nashing teeth and throwing out

claws trying to protect itself but

people keep advancing further and

further and getting closer and closer to

it in an effort to Snuff it out and they

do so knowing full well that they're

probably going to get hurt and the hurt

is real especially with relation to this

topic in order for change to take place

in these organizations female athletes

have had to suffer tremendously and not

only from the perspective of having

opportunities ripped away from them but

quite literally suffer getting their

heads caved in getting choked out ending

up with serious injuries and fear that

stops them from competing again these

women are expected to give up their

hopes and dreams to walk off the field

walk away from the tournament walk away

from the opportunities and the trophies

and the accolades because until these

sporting bodies actually do right by

these women it's the only thing that is

orchestrating any change women giving up

the thing they have worked so hard for

and maybe that's what the world of

Surfing needs one woman or maybe a bunch

of women to walk off the bloody Beach

and say absolutely no more I suppose the

facts that women have to sacrifice and

relinquish opportunities in order to

fight for their sport is insane to

reiterate a point I made earlier with

relation to Bethany Hamilton this was a

woman who was not dissuaded after

getting her arm bitten clean off by a

shark but it appears her Line in the

Sand is men participating in her sport

in the female category and I really

think that says something in the end I

firmly believe that the Turning Point

comes when enough women when enough

female athletes are prepared to walk

away and say enough is enough and for

once I am really happy to say that I

firmly believe we have finally reached

that place now on that note and before I

open the floor to all of you this is

just a reminder check out fume using the

link in the description go and check out

turning point do you think more women

no more I am done do you think that

nothing's actually going to change that

it's just going to be more of the same

what do you make of this rip Crow
