When I was in high school, I ran track. My best event was the long jump. I set a school record when I was 16.
My best jump was 21’11”. Not great, but not bad for a 16-year-old who spent more time surfing than practicing for the long jump. That jump would have put me in the Olympics...if I was female. My hair was long, but I wasn’t a girl.
This year, in my home state, a boy pretending to be a girl took the spotlight and took medals and memories away from hardworking girls. The girl who finished “second” to that boy will never get a chance to get that moment back. It’s lost, forever, like tears in the rain.
