In a heartfelt moment, Hunt expressed his gratitude to Paula Scanlan, a women’s sports activist and former collegiate swimmer, who was forced to share a locker room with a male claiming to be female. Hunt assured his daughters that they too would not have to endure such a situation. It’s refreshing to see a representative stand up for what’s right, regardless of party affiliation.
Rep. @WesleyHuntTX EXPLODES over radical gender ideology:
"My four-year-old and my two-year-old daughters WILL NOT change in front of biological men. This is RIDICULOUS…! If you think we're all equal and the same biologically, you've literally lost your mind!"

I have never seen this image before but it sent chills down my spine. I haven’t commented much about the locker room situation here on twitter, because to be honest I am still processing how challenging it was to change 18 times a week with a male present.

Hunt firmly believes in the biological differences between males and females, and rightfully challenges anyone who argues against this common sense understanding. After all, if we can’t acknowledge basic biology, what is our society coming to? It’s clear that Hunt’s daughters are lucky to have a father who will fight tooth and nail to protect their privacy and safety.
In addition to his concerns about gender-based facilities, Hunt raises legitimate questions about sports competitions. He insists that when his daughters train for sporting events, they should be competing against actual women, not men who claim to be women. This is not about discrimination; it’s about fair competition. It’s about maintaining the integrity of women’s sports and ensuring a level playing field for all athletes.
Paula Scanlan’s testimony further reinforces the need for these discussions. She shared a deeply troubling image of a young girl forced to change alongside a towering 6’4″ male. The guilt and heartbreak she experienced witnessing this are emotions that no child or adult should ever have to endure. It’s a societal failure that we have allowed such situations to occur, but it’s never too late to correct course and protect our children.
Rep. Wesley Hunt’s passionate stance on the “Dangers and Due Process Violations of ‘Gender-Affirming Care’ for Children” is commendable. He is a true advocate for the privacy, safety, and fairness of all individuals, particularly women and girls. We need more representatives like him who are willing to tackle these difficult issues, even if it means challenging the prevailing narrative. Let’s support those who are brave enough to stand against the tide and fight for what’s truly right.
