Stories of Protecting Women’s Spaces
Real stories from real people fighting to protect the opportunities, privacy, and safety of girls and women.
Featured Stories
View MoreSociety has created spaces so that men and women can not only thrive together –– but also apart. These single-sex spaces are based in biological truth and objective truth and are crucial to protect us, not hold us back. When we blur the lines between men’s and women’s spaces, women are at heightened risk of sexual violence, assault, and injury because men, generally speaking, are stronger and more capable of overpowering women.
Unfortunately, women are now told they must sacrifice their opportunities, privacy and safety as the laws created to secure equal rights for women –– like Title IX –– are walked back by gender ideology. We’re spearheading the movement to protect sex-based rights and honor each sexes unique contributions to societies.
After a traumatic brain injury ended her athletic future, Payton McNabb has become a bold advocate for protecting women’s sports, turning her pain into purpose.
