Maine school board meeting sees women undress in protest of trans athletes in girls sports, a growing trend

Maine teens Carrlyn Buck, Hailey Himes, Cassidy Carlisle and Lucy Cheney recount their chaotic high school sports experience in a state that aggressively protects trans athletes in girls sports.

Maine's trans athlete conflict reignited this week with residents taking action at school board meetings. 

During one meeting of the school board in the state's capital of Augusta Wednesday, two women undressed to protest the state's policies that allow biological males to compete in girls sports and use girls locker rooms. 

The stunt came while local parent Nick Blanchard delivered a monologue condemning the school board for enforcing the state's policies on the issue. Blanchard had spoken earlier in the meeting but returned to the lectern at the end of the meeting with the protesting women behind him to carry out the act. 

"I'm about to show you guys how uncomfortable it is for young girls," Blanchard declared to the board members. "You feel uncomfortable? Because that's what these young girls feel like when a boy walks into their locker room and starts unchanging in front of them. Yeah, you feel uncomfortable, right? That's what these young girls feel like every time a young boy changes in front of them."

The two women continued to remove garments as Blanchard's speech continued. 

"This is Maine's capital. We should be setting an example for the rest of the state. You know what example you guys are setting? That we do not care about the young girls in the rest of the state," he added.
