Via the excellent Prof. Kathleen Stock:

At the 2018 Connecticut State track & field championships, of the 6 medalists in the men's and women's 100 meters finals, 5 were biologically male.

Some good comments in that Twitter thread:

It's as if someone asked the monkey's paw to find a way to get equal prize money for women's sport
“You have some people who believe men are stronger and faster” ... that’d be those people who’ve noticed that every single men’s record is faster/longer/heavier/higher than every single women’s record I guess.

It's incredible that things have got this bad. People need to push back.

Andraya Yearwood said even as a child, she identified as a girl.

"I had these pink and purple furry boots that I wore to school," Yearwood said. "I guess since I was always different I learned to deal with it and grow tougher skin over it."

Doesn't even realise how offensive this is.

Here's the news story

www.wkbn.com/news/national-world/transgender-track-stars-win-state-championship-ignites-debate/1238813951

The lengths that interviewees go to to suck cock and screw over natal women is unbelievable.

"You have some people who believe men are stronger and faster so I can understand if an athlete is born male but identifying as a female and compete as one, some females will feel a particular way about it," Clinton Baker said.

[but who cares about them - the cunty ones that is]

"If she identifies as a girl then I think she should be able to run in the race because she can use the ladies room, she can wear a skirt, why not run and stay active," Natasha Morgan said.

[so this born-male who has stubble for Goddesses' sake wears a skirt and has also invaded the girls' changing rooms - oh and wearing a skirt a woman maketh].

"The cream rises to the top," Baker added. "Athletes now will tell you if you put UConn women on the court with men, UConn men might lose. It's all in the spirit of competition, hard work and heart."

[Dicks rule ok - fuck the cunty types]

Yearwood says she's extremely grateful for the opportunity to be exactly who she says she has always been.

"I'm extremely grateful because I've heard of stories where some people don't get the same opportunities as me and have had to go through really hard times with this," Yearwood said"

[the natal girls don't get opportunities because of her - but hey - who cares? They are just the cunty types who don't matter].

This makes me so angry I could cry

SPOFS · 10/09/2018 12:34

I'm just surprised that it wasn't 6/6. It will be next year I bet.

ArtemisWeatherwax · 10/09/2018 12:54

I'm extremely grateful because I've heard of stories where some people don't get the same opportunities as me - by "some people" do they mean women?

Popchyk · 10/09/2018 12:56

But they could refute all of this in an instant by pointing to those events where 5/6 women take the medals in the men's and women's athletic events.

Because that would prove that men do not have a superior physiological advantage.

They just have to point to the incidences where women beat men in men's races. That's it. That's all they have to do.

VickyEadie · 10/09/2018 14:31

This is the saddest and most important comment for me: the world watches the death of girls sports and the silence of high profile people (that can help) is deafening.

Wow, rarely do you see male supremacy so unapologetically stated.

AspieAndProud · 10/09/2018 15:25

It's not just cream that floats.

Scum also rises to the top.

MsBeee · 10/09/2018 16:21

This has to stop. This has to stop . This has to stop.

Fucking fuming, i'm so fucking done with this shit. Rant ,rant.
I wonder if any men with selfID into rhythmic gymnastics, something that women actually might have an advantage in, due to generally having more flexibility in our ligaments.

arranfan · 10/09/2018 16:37

Oil pollution rises to the top.

Plastic pollution rises to the top

Hot air rises to the top

""The cream rises to the top," Baker added. "

This made my jaw drop tbh

Gronky · 10/09/2018 17:01

I read some really vile nonsense today (I won't even dignify it with a link) that equated the advantage some transgender individuals have with the advantage individuals of certain races are supposed to have.

SophoclesTheFox · 10/09/2018 18:32

Fucking hell, I could weep for girls with sporting talent in the USA, who may formerly have been able to get a college education with their talent, and who now have to compete with boys. Like Title IX never happened.

Tell me again how this isn't the most naked misogyny?

You are CHEATS.

That's awful. What a farce of an event.

FermatsTheorem · 10/09/2018 18:41

The thing that baffles me about the sort of women you describe, Materialist, is the sheer inconsistency of it.

"Pink brains and blue brains... no threat to feminism at all - oh, and by the way, that means men in women's sport is totes okay..." = progressive and liberal

vs.

"brains are just brains - they're not 'gendered', but there are physical differences between men and women..." OMG YOU BIGOT, YOU REALISE THE WHOLE EDIFICE OF FEMINISM WILL COLLAPSE IF WE ADMIT MEN CAN RUN FASTER THAN WOMEN...

Seriously, I have had a numpty say this to me on one of the past threads on transwomen in women's sport.

JellySlice · 10/09/2018 18:42

Apparently it's a very complex issue.

Hmm
FlippinFumin · 10/09/2018 19:29

I just hope the winners of the women's race are happy with everyone knowing they are not good enough to compete in the men's race. Because we all know, we all fucking know.

Oh and I never had pink furry boots, does that make me a boy. Twirl your hair all you like loser, we see you.

ErrolTheDragon · 10/09/2018 19:35

Maybe athletes whose claim to girlhood depends on pink fluffy slippers should run in them?

FFS.

jaynelovesagathachristie · 10/09/2018 20:07

What the actual fuck I've been fairly laid back but this is just insane . How are they allowed to compete surely scientists can argue similar advantages from doping to physical advantages. Call them whatever you like but if their biologically different of if like doping gives you an advantage it can't be equal they can't compete against each other. Like the paraolympics shouldn't it be like that
