Social Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas out of Olympics after losing legal battle

[lsa]

"The US swimmer Lia Thomas, who rose to global prominence after becoming the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA college title in March 2022, has lost a legal case against World Aquatics at the court of arbitration for sport – and with it any hopes of making next month’s Paris Olympics."

"in a 24-page decision, the court concluded that Thomas was “simply not entitled to engage with eligibility to compete in WA competitions” as someone who was no longer a member of US swimming.
The news was welcomed by World Aquatics, who hailed it as “a major step forward in our efforts to protect women’s sport”.

I felt we needed a new tranny thread.

Trump HAS to be able to fund raise off this.

 

[USA!USA!]

Fully support this.

If you want to be transgender, that is great.

However, men who switch to women should not be competing against women in any sport - ever.

 

[CantCucktheTuck]

imagine writing 24 pages just to tell that dumb bitch to sit down and shut the fuck up.

 

[Scerpi]

lol... The Olympics had to be worried that in 8-12 years, every women's sport would be dominated by men.

interesting to know America now officially worships lgbt.
As in, that's the state religion, and lgbt flags, in any form, are the most sacred objects in the entire country.

Maybe the tide is turning.

Why aren't they being "converted" is my question.

 

[deviake]

Makes sense to me. The categories weren't separated based on gender identity, it's physicality.

One thing people don't mention is that it sucks for transmen too but in reverse. They're gonna be disadvantaged competing against men.

It sucks for trans athletes. I don't know of a solution.

Don't worry, they're still a maligned minority fringe group.

Your precious worldview is safe.

FWIW, this is clearly the right call.

You can burn the US flag but can’t ride over a pride flag lmao

The left hates Christianity so LGBT, race issues and the government have become things leftists worship.

 

[Rob Battisti]

I’d uno reverse them and say I was adding my own gender identity to the flag

That case is insane and it must have been so hard for them to not laugh at the Judge... One bitch on the news called it a "Hate Crime".. The Transformers surely are a spoiled and privileged bunch.

What precious worldview are you attempting to swing and miss about? I'd love to hear all about it.
