Female skateboarder, Taylor Silverman, speaks out about transwoman winning woman's competitions

Sorry, that is March THIS year.

It would be interesting if a law was passed to say that if a transwoman wins gold the first bio woman behind them must also win gold and all placed winners would continue to be placed as if there was no tie in first place. So it would cost the awards bodies extra money to acknowledge the advantage.

Not surprisingly, ASRA (Australian skateboard racing association) has removed the women’s results from their Facebook page.

They know what they have allowed is not supported by the majority, but will have told themselves anyone complaining are the bad guys.

Here is an Australian skateboarding comp, where the female event was won by a male. I heard about this event, Yarra Downhill Festival in March last year but it had snuck under the radar for a while.

People are finally talking about it.

Ahria Everett took first place from a woman. Downhill skateboarding is relatively new. This event feeds into the team choice for representing Australia in World Roller Games in Argentina in November 2022.

Posie Parker was on Tim Pool's show when she was in the USA a couple of months

How anyone in their right mind would be proud of this achievement is beyond me. So very silly that I want to laugh but then feel gutted for the women putting in the training and devoting their lives to their sport.

Wonder if this is another case of being able to prolong a career well into your forties and longer? Especially as there is no pesky menopause to get in your way

And where are the ftm transitioners taking medals and prizes away from men?

Why is it only ever mtf transitioners winning women's competitions? What possible, possible reason could there be?

I see that Tim Pool could be considered "problematic" by many, but credit where it's due, his supportive behaviour in this case is to be applauded.

Thank you for posting.

Good for her.

The answer to the comments - ok, let's have two women's competitions. The mixed sex women's and the female only. (Cue howls of rage) However TW would also have their sex based option and an alternative, everyone would.

And females who believe it's more important to emotionally support a male person's dreams and feelings than to have a life or ambitions of their own can do so. Lets see who that mixed sex league is totally dominated by, how many female athletes would actually be prepared in reality to voluntarily play the service human part if they are not forced to, and how long female people really find this fulfilling to participate in. (And whether anyone male, or male supporting successfully manages to give a damn.)

Brave woman.

It is insane that anyone who is biologically a man can compete with women
They should compete with men

I left some supportive comments, she is (yesterday at least) getting seriously burned in the comment section, but it's Insta, so I wouldn't take the comment section too seriously. In some ways it's worse for performative virtue signalling than Twitter. It is inhabited mostly by a youngish gen z/millennial crowd, it's all quick soundbite look how inclusive/accepting/socially progressive I am.

I rarely see much in the way of critical thinking or opinions beyond the established msm, globalist narratives there.

If you've got nothing much original to say, but you still need to establish yourself as an influencer, start out on Insta.

She is very brave, considering the character of the platform and how young she is.

I see there is now a longboard surfer, Sasha Jane Lowerson, who has won both the mens and womens competition in Western Australia after changing their identity. It’s a big No Thank you from me.

Here is an Australian surfer taking positions from females at at least state level.

If we're having males compete against females and calling it a job well done, why stop there?

All those classes of boxers separated by a few mere kilos? Enough already. Such discrimination!

College students should play in middle school sports. They're all students, for heaven's sake. The middle schoolers can always train harder if they don't like losing all the time.

Etc etc etc ad infinitum et nauseam

The comments have made me really, really sad.

Another very brave young woman.

I believe there is a ‘free skater’ or something like that event where an Australian transitioned male is going to represent Australia in a world championships in Brazil. I have not been able to find anything about it except that I heard about it elsewhere.

It seems like skateboarding is one of this sports that might be slipping male inclusion under the radar. But of course, the ability for women to do anything like the same tricks as males on snow or skateboards is not possible due to physiology.

I hope she can get enough momentum that people actually start supporting her.

What a wonderful intervention by Tim Pool. I know prescious little about him (even after looking at wiki!) Has he spoken on this topic before?

Not just hate, but that entire comment section is a hot mess. Between the insults and ridicule, you have genderists spouting biological nonsense.

I am more and more convinced genderism is the new religion of the 21st century. I see no difference in how they believe in the idea and how they view anyone who does not.
