More women athletes harmed by dudes playing dress up

The trannies strike again. I am suspect this will make the resident Tranny lovers her happy. But the victims are the woman athletes in America that have trained their entire lives” to lose out to transgender athletes". Leftists pushing this bullshit are destroying woman’s rights in America.

Article:

A transgender cyclist proudly said she felt like a “superhero” while winning her latest women’s race in New York — just days after a former champ quit the sport in anger at losing to another trans rider.

However, her win soon started a severe backlash — with an NYC cycling outlet that posted her podium pics disabling the flood of angry comments.

A fellow cyclist, using the hashtag #SaveWomensSports, said that Thomas had gone “from a total beginner to the elite level in just 5 years,” with the NYC crit at least her 20th win.

“Tiffany’s teammates are all between the ages of 24 and 32. Amazing that Tiffany can keep up with them at the age of 46 after only starting cycling at age 40!” she wrote sarcastically.

Thomas’ win came just days after champion cyclocross rider Hannah Arensman confirmed she was quitting in anger over the issue.

“I have decided to end my cycling career,” she said last Wednesday in a statement included in a Supreme Court filing over the issue.

She said in her last race, in the elite women’s division of the UCI Cyclocross National Championships in late December, she “came in 4th place, flanked on either side by male riders awarded 3rd and 5th places.”

“My sister and family sobbed as they watched a man finish in front of me, having witnessed several physical interactions with him throughout the race,” she wrote, in a statement also shared by the Independent Council on Women’s Sports (ICONS).

“Additionally, it is difficult for me to think about the very real possibility I was overlooked for an international selection on the US team at Cyclocross Worlds in February 2023 because of a male competitor.”

She said that it “has become increasingly discouraging to train as hard as I do only to have to lose to a man with the unfair advantage of an androgenized body that intrinsically gives him an obvious advantage over me, no matter how hard I train.”

“I feel for young girls learning to compete and who are growing up in a day when they no longer have a fair chance at being the new record holders and champions in cycling,” she wrote.


“I have felt deeply angered, disappointed, overlooked, and humiliated that the rule makers of women’s sports do not feel it is necessary to protect women’s sports to ensure fair competition for women anymore,” she wrote in the filing.

You're gender at birth should be the only gender considered for any sporting events at either secondary or collegiate level. I'd leave it to the pro organizations to set the rules for post college levels, but genetic males are not the same as females. It's the old apples n oranges routine.

exactly. the proof is clear, show me one adult female who is a top athlete in some sport that transitions to male and dominates the same sport. it never happens. what does happen is some male also-ran as an athlete in some sport transitions to female and is suddenly a champion athlete. it only works one way and only for men.
... The onley thing that will change this
is lads - actual MALES - just joining the Girls
secondary school basketball, football, and
volleyball teams... Make the PIAA or NCAA
FORCE them out... They should be able to
play on the Girls teams anyway - just 'cause
they feel like it.

.... Hire some barristers and have at it in court.

Let a few fellows surely wander onto the
US womans football team and start taking their
soccer jobs - or in the WNBA - and you'll
see just HOW FAST all this buffoonery
comes to a rather abrupt end!

And finally looks like some international governing body has some common sense:

World Athletics makes bombshell transgender move

Transgender women will no longer be allowed to compete in female track and field events regardless of their levels of testosterone, World Athletics president Sebastian Coe said Friday.

Speaking after a meeting of the global track and field federation’s decision-making body, Coe sad: “The Council has agreed to exclude male or female transgender athletes who have been through male puberty from female world ranking competitions from March the 31st this year.”

Coe said World Athletics had consulted with stakeholders including the International Olympic Committee and national federations about the issue of transgender athletes.

“The majority of those consulted stated that transgender athletes should not be competing in the female category,” he said.

Actually that now makes two International Governing Sport Organizations coming to their senses

World swimming bans transgender athletes from women’s events

World swimming’s governing body has effectively banned transgender women from competing in women’s events, starting Monday.

FINA members widely adopted a new “gender inclusion policy” on Sunday that only permits swimmers who transitioned before age 12 to compete in women’s events. The organization also proposed an “open competition category.”

“This is not saying that people are encouraged to transition by the age of 12. It’s what the scientists are saying, that if you transition after the start of puberty, you have an advantage, which is unfair,” James Pearce, who is the spokesperson for FINA president Husain Al-Musallam, told The Associated Press.

Now when will the idiots running the NCAA, High School Sports and other sporting events wise up and adopt similar common sense measures?
