Skateboarder says National Organization for Women wants to 'scare people into silence' over trans athletes

Pro-skateboarder Taylor Silverman listed the numerous holidays celebrating the LGBT community.

Skateboarder Taylor Silverman told Fox News Digital that the National Organization for Women's (NOW) claim that fairness in women's sports is White supremacy is a "desperate" attempt to "scare people into silence."

"I take the National Organization for Women claiming that fairness in women’s sports is White supremacy about as seriously as I take them claiming men can be women," Silverman told Fox News Digital, reacting NOW's statement. "They are blinded by this lie and desperate to scare people into silence. Men in women’s sports impacts all women, including minorities that the National Organization for Women seemingly want to erase to push their ridiculous narrative."

Silverman, the host of the skateboarding YouTube show "Boonies HQ," competed against biological males three times in skateboarding contests. On two occasions, she was pushed out of first place. 

Skateboarder Taylor Silverman slams Transgender Day of Visibility, calling it "ridiculous."

Silverman's comments came after NOW slammed an effort to sue the NCAA over transgender athletes' participation in women's sports as the work of "White supremacist patriarchy" rather than a concern for equality.

NOW responded to the news of former and current college athletes filing a lawsuit against the NCAA, accusing it of violating their Title IX rights by allowing transgender swimmer Lia Thomas to compete in the women’s championship back in 2022.

After NOW's statements, several people declared that the group no longer supports women.

This response faced swift backlash, particularly for women athletes
