This is a very emotional and truthful telling of the negative
impact that transwomen are having on the sport of swimming,
and other sports generally, by champion swimmer Riley Gaines.

Her very valid points raise the issues of female swimmers having
to compete against transgender woman Lia (William) Thomas.

This is the 132-pound,  6'-4" Lia Thomas:

During the 2018–2019 swim season, Thomas recorded the top UPenn
men's team times in the 500 free, 1000 free, and 1650 free, and was
the sixth best among UPenn men's team members in the 200 free.  He
swam in the men's team as recently as 2020.

Not satire.

The biggest danger to trans people are the nutjobs actually pushing for unlimited equal rights in sports which will create a backlash against trans people.

People like Mothra the fake/fraud and Kat the pro child population ghoul will get trans people killed.

As a biological male, Thomas has had the benefits of more than 20 year's
worth of testosterone.

As we all know, testosterone is responsible for increased bone density,
fat distribution, muscle strength and mass, height and reach, and
increased red blood cell production.

These are body physics that take a long time to, or never, decrease
even with testosterone blockers such as spironolactone or cyproterone
acetate.

In short then:  No, Thomas should definitely not be competing in any
womens' sports.

And yet again (unsurprisingly) you lie.

Not only am i on record as opposed to all sorts of sporting contests pitting cis women against trans women, Kat is repeatedly on record as saying they are opposed to surgery on children.

All you have is lies.

And to try to actually blame possible deaths on us for having the ethical integrity to support other human beings in life choices that do not impact us, as opposed to on the likes of you who spend your days spreading hatred, misinformation and outright deceit ... and that's while you're not actively out proudly bullying people in real life with your family.

Sure. Deaths are on our hands.

In the 2016 Olympic women's 800m final 1st, 2nd and 3rd places went to trans/intersex competitors who refused to alter their natural hormones.  I think they were barred from competing in 2020 in Tokyo.

Melissa Bishop (Canada) came in 4th,  Joanna Jozwik (Poland) 5th and Lynsey Sharp (UK) 6th.  ALL biological women who should have been awarded 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

No-one was arrested for attacking Riley Gaines.  Men punching women used to be frowned upon didn't it?   What a ridiculous farce.  The vast majority of us are for live and let live but if this keeps up all Hell will eventually break loose. 

Make the trans/intersex all compete naked and I'm sure we'll start to see a change of tune from those with any semblance of common sense and integrity.

But once they turn 18, removal of healthy breasts is on, neutering is on (NB. It is neutering, not turning into a woman) because you are supportive of delusions about the power of medicine to change a man into a woman and vice versa. 
But it is not support, it is moving in and co-habiting with them in their castles in the air.
And if others refuse to also move in and cohabit in those fantasy dwellings with them, you call that hate and misinformation and bullying.

Butch Cassidy will be competing in the women's Shot-put, Javelin and Discus events.
Butch Cassidy was a 6'5 Man of 120kg who was formerly a European Strong Man runner-up who now identifies as a Woman.

Women need to stand up to this bullshit.
