I think Blaire's a little late on this.

What has driven women to having to start shouting for hard lines and clear separation between sex and gender was the utter refusal of the TQ+ lobby in the name of TW to tolerate even any mention or discussion of female need, and to show a really quite concerning lack of ability to care about female harms, voices, issues, exclusion and accessibility. Which really made a complete nonsense of saying this was about equality and inclusion: evidently no, it was purely about male needs getting met and fuck the impact on females as lesser beings. Even females being raped is openly derided as didn't happen and if it did, whatever, the male need is obviously much more important than the destroyed lives of females left in that male person's wake as they live their best lives.

Blaire has been vocal and making videos for years though - this one is about Lia Thomas and the wider impact of "TWAW" and Lia Thomas has emerged only recently, but Blaire's position in general has been consistent for a long time.

Perhaps leading women cyclists could set up their own Association for biological women. Virtually all women would support it and it would attract sponsorship soon enough. There are precedents like Rugby League and others.

Thank you for the list of displaced women. Let's not forget all the other women who were not robbed if medals but qualifying. The woman who came 17th in the Lia races. That woman didn't even qualify for the heats as you had to come 16 or above. Many many women displaced just for ONE.
