Sex is in DNA

Dear Editor,

I just read the result that the judge ruled against the snowboarding coach.

What world do we live in? Boys cannot be girls and girls cannot be boys.

They can pretend, change clothes and mutilate their bodies but that’s it.

This is mental illness disguised as compassion.

You don’t humor an anorexic by agreeing with them that they are too fat.

These people’s skeletons are dug up thousands of years from now and they can still tell the sex. It’s in the cellular level, DNA and unchangeable. Come on people, get real!

Boys should not be competing with girls in athletic events.

It’s cheating.

That is why a women’s category was invented.

Thank you for your consideration.

George de Luna,  New Jersey and Killington

Protect SNAP—because no Vermonter should go hungry

June 25, 2025
Dear Editor, As a longtime anti-hunger advocate, a former SNAP recipient, and a proud Vermonter, I am deeply alarmed by proposals moving through Congress that would gut the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), known here in Vermont as 3SquaresVT. If passed, these cuts would devastate thousands of families across the Green Mountain State that rely…
