Young Girls ‘Terrified’ After Being Forced To Share Locker Room With And Compete Against 50-Year-Old Transgender


Apparently in Canada, the delusions of adults come before the safety of young girls.

That’s the only reasonable explanation as to why girls as young as eight-years-old were forced to share a locker room with and compete against a 50-year-old transgender female (biological male).

The transgender swimmer is Nicholas J. Cepeda, who now competes under the name “Melody Wiseheart.”

Parents are outraged after he was allowed to partake in a Canadian swim meet with girls between the ages of 8 and 16.

Worse yet, parents claim the 50-year-old man was allowed to change in the same locker room as the girls.

The incident occurred at the Trojan Cup in Barrie, Ontario.

“The girls were terrified,” claimed one parent whose teen daughter competed.

“It’s all so confusing for the kids,” said another parent.

“Everyone is accepting of all people, but them swimming against our kids and being in a locker room with them is not appropriate.”

The New York Post reported on the disturbing story:

A 50-year-old transgender swimmer was allowed to compete against teenage girls at an event in Canada — with horrified parents building a makeshift tent out of towels to shield girls as young as 8 in the locker room.

Melody Wiseheart, who once competed under the name Nicholas Cepeda, sparked outrage while competing during the Trojan Cup in Barrie, Ontario.

“The girls were terrified,” an unidentified parent of one of the teenagers told the Toronto Sun of having to share a locker room with the much older trans swimmer.

“It’s all so confusing for the kids,” another parent said. “No one is comfortable.

“Everyone is accepting of all people, but them swimming against our kids and being in a locker room with them is not appropriate.”

The Post Millennial has more on the backlash from parents:

The swimmer in question is Nicholas J. Cepeda who competes under the name “Melody Wiseheart.” He is a member of the Orangeville Otters Swim Club.

At a Swimming Canada-sanctioned swim meet for girls between the ages of 8 and 16, parents said that “Wiseheart” not only competed against young girls but changed in and out of his swimsuit in the women’s locker room, the outlet reports.

This incident occurred on Dec. 1 at the Trojan Cup which was held at the East Bayfield Community Centre.

“The girls were terrified,” said the parent of a child who competed in the competition.

Parents told the outlet that they were forced to put up towels in the changing room to act as a shield for their daughters. That way the girls could change in peace without being seen by Wiseheart.

How could any parent allow this to happen?
