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 controversial enters the realms of lunacy. Regarding sport. I have a few credentials in that I was (need to renew) a fully qualified athletics coach, able to coach everything - including tug-of-war for...

Not for long.... quicker than I thought, tbh, but there is a huge backlash here. Not just from him, but several other examples.
People are finding out and I think this will change fairly soon.
It will have to change. It simply is not right.
It is insane. They are basically suggesting women are just "less masculine" males. No daily testing of progesterone and oestrogen to make sure they are in the right cycles. Or physiology.
Genetically, it is the wrong way around anyway...
And thats without the advantages of being well over 6 foot and with hands like paddles.

Ludicrous, the pandering needs to stop.
Bigger shoulders, straighter pelvis, more red blood cells, up to 3× more lung capacity, different musculature, bigger stronger heart... the differences aren't about testosterone.
This really is disgraceful.
If this travesty carries on it will end with the demise of women's sport.

Some people support it.

In answer to the question "Should women be allowed in womens cycle races"

sp1814 responded "Yep - she should. Best of luck to her". Unfortunately he didn't go on to explain why.

He isn't on, so we won't know. I have, several times, asked him about black-fishing, but never got an answer.
Until the vast majority of the other top female competitors refuse to take part, nothing will change.
They did refuse to stand on the podium next to him, Ken... don't have the photo here at the moment.
But- that's hardly fair on the female athletes. They have trained and trained for different competitions, and all athletes have a short shelf-life. They shouldn't have to miss out, due to cheating. That should be sorted by organisers.

HE love HE, stop giving the charade credibility.
...so Geezer beats women at swimming! the world's gone mad.
there is a very simple solution to all of this, if you have a "Y" chromosome you cannot compete as a woman, end of.
This is SO unfair on the real women swimmers and I agree totally with you TTT ...
I did think... even DD, with the best will, used "she" with quotations. We really, really need to stop this confusion, before we do any more damage.
Men can be however they are... no pretence needed.
Pixie, refusing to stand alongside him on the podium means absolutely zilch when they have already accepted his presence by competing against him. If the top female athletes, in whatever sports they represent, refuse to compete against men, the powers that be will have to rethink their attitudes. Either that or have their prestige events rendered meaningless.
If they want to compete then they should have a a trans competition where all trans people can compete against each other.You allow an able bodied person to compete against a disabled person in the para Olympics,then why allow this?
