“This is yet another slap in the face to women,” Riley Gaines, a University of Kentucky swimmer who was also nominated for the award, tweeted in response to the news on Friday.
“First a female national title and now nominated for the pinnacle award in collegiate athletics. The @NCAA has made this award worthless.”
Thomas — who won the 500-yard freestyle at the 2022 NCAA Women’s Division I Swimming and Diving Championships earlier this year — is one of 577 graduating female student athletes nominated by their schools for the prestigious award.
The 22-year-old’s record-smashing season this year has been mired in controversy with some critics claiming competing in the women’s division gave her an unfair advantage because she was biologically born a male.
“This award combines athletic performance with academics, service, and character. What character has Thomas shown other than sheer selfishness and entitlement?” Gaines continued, accusing Thomas of showing “disrespect” and “disregard” for other female athletes.

“What is wrong with you?!!!!!!!?” she tweeted at the NCAA.
Former NCAA swimming champ Marshi Smith, an outspoken critic against transgender women competing in women’s sports, said UPenn is “doubling down on their anti-woman campaign” by deciding to nominate Thomas for the honor.
“@RileyGaines deserves “NCAA Woman of the Year” for sheer guts alone!” Smith tweeted.
Tennis legend Martina Navratilova spoke out against Thomas’ nomination, as well.Hector Vivas/Getty Images for WTAIn May, Thomas acknowledged the criticism against her in an interview on ABC’s “Good Morning America” and said she had been prepared for the backlash.
“I knew there would be scrutiny against me if I competed as a woman, and I was prepared for that,” the star athlete said at the time.

“I intend to keep swimming … It’s been a goal of mine to swim at Olympic trials for a very long time, and I would love to see that through,” she said.
Thomas has faced backlash from the swimming community and others for her choice to compete in the women’s division.AFP via Getty ImagesLast month, the controversy surrounding transgender women in sports led to the world swimming’s governing body, FINA, effectively banning them from competing in elite women’s events.
UPenn did not immediately comment on the criticism over Thomas’ nomination for the NCAA.

Economic/Political 'Yin/Yang'-Critique of Establishment NWO/TRUMPIAN Dogma
Trumpian, aka neo-Libertarian, dogma relies too much on the economic forces being the leveraging determiner of the politics [See the economic analysis of Michael Lind (2012)]. This view disregards the emotional energy of the humanistic ethos of individuals and their collectives. Equally flawed is the Neo-liberal NWO that relies on a political framework in which a preferred economic system exists [The fatal flaw of neoliberalism: it's bad economics by Dani Rodrik (2017)]. This also discounts the provincial and individualistic aspirations of the contrarian niches.
Governance is more the Yin of collective composition of economic arrangements-for their own sake, sorted for a manageable cohesive social order.
Both the Neo-libertarian (Trumpian) and Neo-liberal (NWO-Establishment) dynamics infringe on the integrity of the individual for either economic or political expedience. Because of these infringements the Right and Left extremes are the inherent, consequential and balancing dynamics when the societal order becomes ossified in its non-responsiveness to those L/R-populist objections.
Since the populist dynamics is more an intangible virtue, plus rare and anecdotal social-pathological militant actions by comparative small collectives, they are disregarded until they reach a threatening critical mass of asymmetric action against the authorities in-charge. Even the present-day Trumpists with their political State-rights leverage and martial gun-culture comprise by some estimates less than 25% of the populace. The cohesiveness of that 25% makes them formidable, but not overwhelming without another 15-20% who favor any sort of order for their cultural "well-being".
It's for that extra marginal percentage of people to obtain the political will for either of the competing claims that gives politics its venue of importance. For the unorganized 40% of the remaining 55% only their narrative interpretation of 'in the course of [cultural] events works as the obstruction to the aspirations of the Neo-libertarian/Trumpists and the Neo-liberal/NWO-ist.
[Ed. epilogue-WE are in that 40%. Without a martially-maintained and aligned, political land base that's more than scattered metropolises, we're provincial enclaves of diverse (not bad, per se) cultural expressions as vulnerable to the whims of external forces as any formerly ransacked and plundered economic entities, such as Tulsa of June 1920.]

This article isn't too long but I find it interesting, in my opinion I think certain people are trying to date themselves to give themselves more credibility.
