The tide is definitely turning!!! There is only one "she" pronoun in the article. It's all their, their full name and 17 year old athlete.

Well colour me surprised!!

A masked pro-trans protestor was also arrested at the event after being witnessed using a Progress Pride flag to attack a demonstrator.

The Mail has obviously been on it for a good while, so even the lack of pronouns is not startling - but this bit is definitely new:

"Lauren Matthew, who came second in the 400m, was pictured holding a homemade sign which crowned her the 'real' champion.

Before and after Garcia competed in the 4x400m relay, athletes from a rival school wore black T-shirts that read 'Keep Women’s Sports Female.'"

Well done, those girls for standing up.

It does look like it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep a lid on this. The bewildered crowd is starting to whisper ‘but the Emperor is naked’ . It will soon build to a roar.
