Lia Thomas - Again. Are Sports Bodies Tying Themselves In Knots In Not Wanting To Offend The Tg Minority?

NCAA Ranking as a man - 554th.
NCAA Ranking as a 'woman' - 1st.
'She' beat Emma Weyant, a silver medalist in Tokyo, by 1.75 seconds, and if the report I read at the weekend is true, 'she' appeared to be holding-back, presumably to avoid the gap being even greater as it would make the absurdity of the situation even more absurd.
The gold in Tokyo was won by 0.68 seconds ahead of Weyant, so if Thomas had gone to the Olympics, 'she' would most likely be the Olympic champion.
Lia Thomas is taking the place of a proper woman.
Sharon Davis has commented:
"She has greater upper-body strength and significantly more muscle mass than a woman of the same weight and height. She has a greater lung capacity, better VO2 uptake, different bone density, she is nearly 6ft 4in tall and has large hands and feet that act like paddles."
And a teammate has commented:
"...that they feel ‘awkward’ sharing a locker room with her because ‘Lia still has male body parts [by which I take they mean a penis] and is still attracted to women".
Why are sporting bodies allowing this absurdity to continue at the expense of women athletes?

I do not even know where to start with this. Naomi is doing brilliantly at stating that women are women (I am one myself)- that this can possibly be considered controversia

Unfortunately, sport is not the half of it (bad as that is). Have a read of this:

In short, a woman in a single sex (female) ward in hospital was raped. Her rapist was a fellow patient – a man pretending to be a woman. It took a year before her complaint that she had been raped was believed. During this time she suffered severe mental anguish and verged on a nervous breakdown (unsurprising as I imagine being raped is bad enough without being branded a liar or fantasist when you mention it). However, some way to explaining why she was not believed lies in NHS policy on transgender. NHS staff are instructed to identify “trans” people only by their chosen gender, or the way the "present.". As a result the police were told that no males were present in the ward therefore the rape could not have occurred. Only when cctv footage was eventually revealed was she believed. But the lunacy gets worse – far worse. Under this same policy, staff are instructed that if (genuinely) female patients in a single sex ward complain about the presence of a man pretending to be a woman on the ward, they are to be told that their complaint is unjustified as there are no males on the ward. So perfectly sane and reasonable women are effectively being gaslighted by NHS staff.
This goes much further than a man winning a women’s swimming race (though, as I said, that is bad enough and has the potential to kill off much of women’s sport). Between 2012 and 2018 there were 436 reported rapes where the alleged perpetrator was a man pretending to be a woman. According to NHS policy these rapes could not have taken place because rape requires penetration by a penis and, according to their policy, there would have been no males present.
Women athletes need to take the bull by the horns and simply refuse to compete against men. Let the competition take place without them and the winning man can have bronze, silver and gold to himself. They shouldn’t have to do so, but whilst the lunatics are running the asylum they have little choice. Their sacrifice will be worth far more than taking part with no chance of winning. Meanwhile this lunacy has to stop within institutions such as the NHS. The Equality Act makes clear that the provision of services segregated by biological sex and not the now meaningless gender is perfectly acceptable in settings such as hospitals. But the NHS seems unwilling to accept this. Women (and men for that matter) are entitled to dignity and privacy in many situations and are entitled to have single-sex areas provided for them.
I was castigated by one of our fellow AB-ers a couple of weeks ago for referring to some people who insist on pretending to be a member of the opposite sex as enjoying experiments with the dressing up box. I don't regret that but in some respects I was wrong. This is far more serious than that trivialisation I constructed and it must stop.

There are loads of these examples, nj...

But it is "hateful" to tell the truth. Psychiatric hospitals, public toilets, and so on.... the argument being that "not all men" are dangerous. Obviously true... but how many do we want?

//OK here's the solution.//
That's not a solution, that's a fudge, worthy of any politician. The solution is to prevent men from competing against women. The fact that sporting bodies have capitulated to a noisy minority means that they need to be forced to make changes. The only way to do that is for women to stand up and be counted by refusing to participate in events against men competitors. Spectators can help by refusing to pay to watch such events. It's the only language they understand.
