Australian Swimmer Emily Seebohm has weighed into the trans debate saying there’s nothing worse than training for years only to have it thrown away because “someone was biologically fitter, stronger faster than you”.
The Olympic gold medallist agreed there should be a section for trans athletes to compete as an effort to include them into the sport as well as being “fair to every other athlete”.
Journalists should be culled every year like other species of invasive pests in order to keep the volume of these kind of takes at a sustainable level 😊🌏

For all of those people who think Alia Thomas is right where he belongs, in women’s sports, why not get rid of any gender division? Put all the boys with the girls and the trans in one competition since there will always be someone who is better than you.
On the Drum - nonsense that bio boys have no sport adv over girls till puberty. If pre-puberty kids play non-contact together, fine. However, I was playing Rugby age 10. Even then girls against boys would have been injured. Bio girls should not have to play against bio boys.
The blatant transphobia and misogyny in the comment section
I don't think anyone who believes this is fair in this comment section *actually* believes it. They just like arguing to virtue signal how woke they are lol.
Isn't that the point of sport? You're meant to be beaten if someone is faster and fitter because it means they worked for it? Like, if you're that salty about being beaten by a trams woman, maybe you should re-evaluate yourself.
No lies detected here emcbomb
There is not one bit of fairness or righteousness in allowing men to compete on a physical contest against women just because said men chose to live and act as women they are still born men it is actually insane.this goes to show how determined society is to create a fake woman.
Some are commenting on Michael, in his case that argument is futile, he was that way. But in Emily case competition with a trans woman born male is wicked wrong. Though he/she took hormones to lower testosterone, does not make them equally biological.
Whilst we are at it, let's ban exams and qualifications. No matter how many hours I spend studying, someone naturally more intelligent will just come along and get higher grades than me.
It's an absurd argument. I could train all the hours that God gives but I'd never ever be able to run faster than Usain Bolt. We are both male. He has physical advantages over me. The same that some women will have over some men and vice versa.
This has got to be the DUMBEST SHIT I've seen outta this lazy good for nothing generation since they started crying about everything........u guys would cancel yourselves out if it was doable ....Jesus Christ!!!
Eventually the WNBA will be taken over by people other than women.
Society on fire, the purist forms insanity emerge
Hmm...Well, geeez does that mean we should start stripping the black USA male 🏀 players since supposedly, 'White man can't jump'? Cthu. People want equality, yet there's always an issue. 🙄
You were beat because someone was faster than you. Yes *virtually taps on Seebohm's head to see if anyone's at home* you see it is called a race. You race to see who is the fastest.... it isn't a hard concept to grasp...for most people.
This is by far the silliest notion I’ve seen. I can’t believe it’s even getting attention, even on Twitter.
Just do like pro boxers...break into seperate weight class no matter the gender...problem solved
Men should compete against men and women against women. Transgender individuals either have to compete in the gender God gave them or create a Transgender Category in any sport for them to compete against each other.
That's how sports work ma'am, try training better and maybe even you can beat Lia! Besides, Lia probably had to take a ton of hormones for a year before they even let her on the team.
It's obvious the way men competing as women are just mediocre against other males but when competing as women they excell. Might as well end sports separated by sex and lump everyone together.
Should Lebron James be stripped of his titles?
MEN should only be in men's sports. Stop killing woman's sports it's disgusting.
Call it what you want but men should only compete against men and women against women end of discussion this shit has gone to far if you're a transgender you shouldn't be allowed to compete period
Someone is always stirring up shit
It is simple, men compete against men, women against women and transgender against transgender, problem solved.
This whole idea that a man calling himself a woman and competing in women's sports is the most fucking warped thing I've heard in my life!!! We are doomed for giving this attention
I can't believe ANYONE would have the gall to even bring this up! Some people are have genes that make them more physically geared for sports and some do not. We take what we get in life and use our best potential to do something positive!!! Leave Michael Phelps alone!
Make it a all gender competition and no more gender competition. Solved
If this continues then special and Para Olympics would have to let any athlete that identifies as disabled compete too. This would never be allowed. Stop the nonsense!
Always? Then how did I a female cisgender swimmer beat male cisgender swimmers in the pool? Biologically Phelps had an 'unfair' advantage too, should he be stripped of his medals? No? Thought not. Include transwomen. Don't be transphobic. Stop the hate. TransWomenAreWomen
... Its weird to see so many people mistake the word 'Biologically' with 'Anatomically'. Shows how much people wanted to learn nowadays..
LEFTISTS ARE INSANE
no shit
So what you're saying is the men's field is for only men, and the women's field is for women and the 'B Team Men'. Looks like the trans athlete's are gonna get all the women's scholarships. Not hating, if I was back in highschool I would fein trans to get a full scholarship..lol
His natural gifts gsve him an advantage. That ended the story for me.
So leave it at that.
CattyArt1 I know what you mean remove any threat of competition to ensure she always wins
What a stupid conversation. Theres 2 categories, men and women. End of story. One has balls, the other doesn't .
🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡
It's humorous to see all these people misinterpreting her statement. She isn't referring to cis biological attributes, she is referring to male transitions. I mean it really wasn't difficult to figure that out....🤦
Males shouldn't be robbing girls of their achievements. Stop the hate 👍
HomoLittlest These comments are diabolical. How is there not a meteor headed to us right about now?
From here on out there should be only one category...'all'. No more men, women, masters, trans, Para, etc. Just compete and enjoy the sport.
Soft ass people. This is what happens when you don't get a trophy for trying. Been a musician for 20 year's there's people better than me and that's okay
Everyone seems to be assuming she meant athletic prowess in your own gender. Perhaps she was taking a stand against Trans women (biological males) competing against biological women.
The only people who say this are the WEAKER,SLOWER AND LESS PHYSICAL. you want to squash the competitive advantage because it's not yours. What happened to the 'dynamite comes in small packages'? If you can't live up that's on you not your competitors..grow up
There is a biological sex category in sport. We literally separate competitors into male and female. Estrogen alone does not eliminate these differences. There should either be more than 2 categories or there should be no categories.
This quote from is taken out of context. She also said“Biological males are always going to be stronger, fitter, faster than biological females”Is Sky News deliberately trying to make her sound stupid? It's about racing against people who've gone through male puberty
So many stupid ignorant people biological males should never compete against women.
Phelps had no surgeries, Nor most athletes, but surgical inhancment is no different than chemical inhancment!
Isn't that what happens in every sport, every year when someone new wins regardless of sex ? But it's not like sky news to take what people say out of context to fit their own agenda ... Women don't care about trans people in sport... We care about rape and the pay gap
Why can't they just create their own league? Trans league I mean
Not like Lia's times are better than Katie Ledecky's - should she be disqualifiedas well? Seems you're all more concerned about what may or may not be between a competitors legs right now. 🤔
Um, God made men the way they are and women the way they are..
Is this THE ONION, really? Why not take away Serena Williams trophies and wins because she is obviously a superior athletic specimen
The guy who wrote this article is an a****** is a****** welcome to Twitter
There should be 3 categories, male, female, and transgender. Males race against males,females against females, and whether you're a M2F or F2M transgender vs transgender. Give everyone their own race or competition. That's fair.
Totally agree with her
She forgot to go fast. Tsk tsk
With this logic female sports will be done in short order. Effectively removing sports as an option for biological female athletes. I'm sure nobody wants this outcome
If you noticed there are no transgender men (biological women) winning anything in mens sports. I think that says it all about biology and unfair advantages of trans women competing against biological women. SaveWomensSports
Women's sports are done. Can't wait to see 30 year old pedo files to join a tee ball or flag football team, sounds reasonable as long as they identify as children of course.
I agree, we need genetic screening to exclude mutants like Michael Phelps. only baseline humans allowed!
That's the point of a competition, you donut.
Well spoke Emily. You are a role model to all females who need to stand up to the 1 in 5,000 men who want to cheat women from their deserved success.
So many stupid people in the comments that don't understand gender. Choosing gender is no different than choosing your race. Otherwise I'd have chosen to be a rich white man a long time ago. . .
Followed to its logical conclusion, this would be the end of sports competition. Good luck with that.
That quote didn't quite hit it's mark. Lol we all know now what she meant but man that's one of the worst ways to exhibit displeasure 😂 The easiest way to address this is to require the decision be made before puberty. In elementary boys and girls are naturally even.
Trans men to female SHOULD NOT be able to compete in women sports!!! Get your own classification
That's how genetics work! You work with the body God gave you. Do your best! There is always going to be someone stronger and faster. Records are meant to be broken. Just make sure it's boys against boys, and girls against girls. None of this transgender crap!
Why is this even a debate? I'm definitely positive that Phelps has trained just as hard for years to be what he is today. Maybe those who spend time complaining should better use their time training.
That quote is ridiculous. Getting beaten by someone fitter, stronger, and faster is basically the definition of sport 🤷
...that's the point of sports. That's most sports in a nutshell
That’s literally how sport works
transphobic athlete begs and pleads for participation trophies because she doesn't understand how sports work
It's a ridiculous argument. If you want Trans competition then make it a separate class. You can't compare the biological advantages of Trans 'women' to the natural biological advantages. Show me a Trans 'male' that can win a competitive men's event and u might change my mind.
Everyone wants to be validated. Give everyone a chance. Have two groups of competitors, those who are comfortable competing with transgender and a group who prefer to compete without having to deal with the Michael Phelps of the world, ie, transgender women.
The thing is, like in basketball, most of the players are taller than average so they are on a level field. Sure some are taller then teammates, but very few 5 ft players are in professional teams.
You are describing sports. That is how sports works.
Isn't that like literally 'all' of sports?1
Article for below
Your absolutely correct. 100 per scent. If you born male compete with male sports if you are female compete with female sport. You can only be a female if you have a ovary to have babies 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That's life! Sometimes you compete against athletes that are bigger and stronger...it is genetics.
I don't follow sports but isn't the whole idea basically about seeing who's biologically fitter, stronger and faster?
Transgender need their 'own'
Every one competing against Michael Phelps (basically half fish) be like
Your tweet was quoted in an article by Essentially Sports
Don't sniff the chlorine kids
Isn't that the entire point of sports? People who are physically fitter and better will win?
emily hate to break it to you but that is literally just sports.
Sport. You've just described sport.
Emily, if you don’t already understand the reality of elite sport then all we have left is to consider you a hate-monger. Is that what you want your legacy to be? Not your incredible sporting achievements?
Trans women have been able to compete in the Olympics since 2004 Not a single qualifier Emily is talking about something that literally has never happened
Could not agree more
Isn’t this all of athletics?
I want to know her definition of Sports.
that is LITERALLY the fucking point of competitive sports
Are you all seriously pretending not to know what she means by this comment 🤯 You're all just being mean 🤨🤨
insane take
Then train harder, Jesus Do these folks think an untrained out lf shape medically transitioned trans woman is gonna destroy them at a swimming race? Because if so, these folks sure do have a problem
That's how sports works, champ.
Wait has she just worked out how sports work?
Olympic swimmer finally realises what the Olympics are about.
welcome to? fckin sports? i mean?
Sooooo ... the entire concept of competitive sport then?
Some people are suggesting that sports should stop being divided by sex at all. This is the stupidest fucking thing ever. It would make it next to impossible to complete and win in most professional sports as a woman.
Good on you Emily. Keep speaking the truth. !!
'being physically inferior' has also kept *me* out of professional sports, but I didn't realise I could get on the news by mentioning it
Ban sports 2022
Thats how sport works?
Did she try swimming faster?
Find me a fitter, stronger, faster female tennis player than Serena Williams, especially in her prime. Was it unfair to other women for her to compete on the WTA? Or maybe that's just how sports, you know, work? (racist clowns don't interact)
Is she implying that all women are biologically at the same level? Does she know about natural selection and racial structual differences. Does she know about doping, enhanced swimming suits, drugs not yet discovered/classified, etc? Maybe she's just being actively ignorant 🤷♂️
Rich girl who bought her gold medals complains about trans privilege 🤦
Hmm that’s just sports though. Should Michael Phelps be banned because of his abnormally long arm span? It gives him a biological advantage other swimmers don’t have. This is not a strong argument.
I would like to see a time when the girls line up for a start and all refuse to dive in when they have a trans in the race. Might make the authorities wake up.
Australian Swimmer Emily Seebohm has weighed in on sports
👏👏👏
Lol What the hell Did she think sporting competition... Was exactly? 🤨
Reality check everyone. Would this even be up for discussion if a bloke who identifies as a man demanded to play in a women’s sport?
wait 'til she finds out the definition of 'sport'
This issue needs to be taken out ofpolitics! Listen to the women that spend all their lives training only to be run over at the finish line ! A panel of specialist doctors physiologist and Sports specialist need to be appointed to manage this issue no political-voices
Maybe she should just get better This is how sports work. You either lose to someone better than you or win because you were the best.
Meanwhile;
Honey, that's called competitive sports
Co-Ed ALL sport so it is inclusive and everyone can play… give medals to everyone too… once these professional athletes expire from a sport… really what’s their worth 💁🏻♀️ Again, a first world problem… there is a war happening and people are dying 😳
Did have a reporter at this fiasco last night. No media allowed at a public event in an RSL club. Even a club member was removed. This is a joke candidate installed by Morrison to give him a sexist platform. I hope those in the target electorates are aware.
so many people here miss the point. in some professional sports like swimming, running a biological male will be faster than a female. the missing the biological bit in the statement.
Do you mean sports
This issue is barely an issue at all but let's not forget the massive advantages that have been afforded to Emily seebohm and other elite swimmers. Born in Australia for a start. Where access to pools and training are the norm from an early age. NoBalls
Seebohm has taken the “if you win then you don’t get to play again”defense.
Is sky news saying men are better 🤔😏
How about interviewing a trans athlete? Someone who knows what they're talking about?
Only people who are biologically less fit, strong, or fast have a right to win sports. Anyone who wins should be automatically disqualified.
That's literally what sports is - competition. Not everyone can win. Trans women are women. There are many actual issues quashing young girls' opportunities (pay inequity, lack of media coverage, lack of accountability for sexual harassment & assault, etc.).
Local women learns what sports are
Australia already has world's best practice laws around trans inclusion which include seperate guidelines for both grassroots and elite level sports & also an exemption in the law allowing for sports to withhold approval should an individual still hold an unacceptable advantage
So…a better athlete…?
That’s literally how sports work
Here's a pro tip for sports people like Emily and Emma. If you get asked about trans people in sports do not comment unless you 1. Truly understand what a trans person is. 2. Understand the process of hormonal transition...
This is just athletics, Emily.
' training for years only to have it thrown away because 'someone was biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster than you'.' Yes, that's called sports. It's what you chose to do.
Transgender women, as a group, don’t have advantages in sports. We all have different bods. The ones with strong athletic bods are the ones who do well in sports which is also true for cis women, so nothing here is unfair. Getting mad when a trans woman wins is just transphobia.
Wait until she finds out that's exactly how the Olympics have operated since it fuckin' started.
'it's unfair that someone who is better than me should take my place' Is that not the entire premise of sport? 🤔
That's called sport. Maybe you should train more, and get better.
100% correct. The power weight ratio in any endurance athletic is completely skewed. Not to mention hormone production, and or any suppressors that need to be taken, (or not taken)
this is just how sports work
Maybe she should get fitter, stronger and faster!
Is, uh, she familiar with the concept of sports? That's kind of their whole THING.
Australian Swimmer Emily Seebohm discovers how sports work
this is exactly why I never made the national swim team either. other people were fitter, stronger and faster than me
Can't believe I've trained for years to play volleyball only to find out the opposing team had people taller than me, how they they allow tall people to play competitive volleyball, they're erasing short people's sport 😡😤😤 /s
Maybe she should swim faster instead of bitching
welcome to sports?
The left is there to erode away all commen sense and normally from society.
sounds like she just doesn’t like international competition.
An apartheid supporting Aussie, colour me shocked. Opinions don't make credible science or regulations. Real world sport science data for trans women specifically does, and only that.
That's called sports.
Everyone's already got the obvious to the way, so: 'Biological males are always going to be faster' Emily, Katie Ledecky routinely breaks dudes at pools when she practices, stop hating your own gender.
Wait... she just described what sport is.
Um, that's literally just not being the best
BREAKING: Athlete discovers how fucking sports work. Or the hypocrisy of sport 'narratives'.
I've always objected to having to play sports with tall people - why should they get all the advantages just because they're different from me? It is an injustice that sports make us compete against others, I should simply be declared the winner.
So…sports?
What a ripoff - I said the same thing after I didn't make the Dream Team in 92.
isn't that how it works?
1. Not scientifically backed 2.thats literally just sport
The swimmer they’re referring to placed 16th
This is precisely why I only ever play sport against clones of myself.
That is how every sport everywhere has worked for like thousands of years now, how is she only just learning this?
Did she say this surrounded by her collection of vintage calipers?
They need to ban cis women from sports. They almost always win!
Great leapin’ wombats Batman! How much chlorine has this gal been swallowing?
That’s…sport. Always someone fitter, better, faster, stronger than you. Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps, Eliud Kipchoge, they’re just all of the above. In practice, the playing field is never fair.
That's what sports is Emily
“there's nothing worse than training for years only to have it thrown away because 'someone was biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster than you' This happens all of the time in sports. Bums will train forever, only to later lose to a Mike Tyson, or Khabib Nurmagomedov.
And I was the fastest runner in my school until I stopped growing and everyone else grew longer legs than me and started kicking my ass. I didn't use it as an excuse to be a bigot
She's biologically fitter and faster then me, so she shouldn't be able to swim again anyway. It hurts my delicate feefees when I'm not the best.
it’s so unfair losing in a competition of fitness to someone fitter than you i can’t believe i have never thought of it like that
'someone was biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster than you' Rupert Murdoch propaganda machine discovers sports.
That's literally how sports works, sorry
Damn, wait until she hears about Michael Phelps
So what about people born with enlarged hands and feet that are excellent swimmers? Or those with long legs that help them run faster and longer? Where do you stop with the 'it's not fair...'?
yep, that's loser talk
That's the truth and there's nothing wrong with recognizing it, it's crazy to think that in our current society the fact that women and men are different scares people.
Swimmer discovers how sports work, blames it on trans people
Unlike previously, when every competitor in a women's swimming race all finished in joint 1st place.
Nothing worse than losing a competition just because my opponent was better than me
That’s literally how sporting competition works. Literally.
By this logic, Micheal Phelp's freakishly long wingspan and naturally streamlined body shape should disqualify him from competing at all. Unfair biological advantage.
There are thirteen female swimmers faster than the fastest trans woman swimmer. What the fuck kind of definition of 'always' is she working with?
should have swam better
That's.. but that's sports for the majority of everyone competing.
Is... Is that not how swimming works? Is that not how MOST sports work?
Therefore I should win too
BREAKING NEWS: Athlete doesn't understand what 'Competing' is and wants to make it other people's problem Maybe she should try to Git Gud?
🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Maybe she shouldn't have gone into sport if she didn't want to experience the basic truth of life as an athlete, just a suggestion there
Have played sport all my life from running to hockey and now cycling; someone was, and is still, almost always biologically fitter, stronger and faster, that’s how sport works
Yeah think of all the 5'0' people who dream of being basketball stars and spend years of training only to have it thrown away because someone was biologically taller than them. How unfair.
Making up excuses for being a loser.
Competitive sport.
and you don't think Emil Seebohm is 'biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster' than the vast majority of women — both cis and trans?
Has she tried being better?
Emily Slowbohm
That's how fucking sports works.
it’s true. This is why no basketball player is taller than 5 foot 8 inches
Front loading your excuses for shitting it and failing to place. Picasso.
….so she wants to only compete against swimmers as good as her?
Isn't that literally what sports is all about?
Then don't do sport? literally what it comes down to
That's....how sport works. Nobody ever complained that Michael Phelps has massive arms.
Wait, did she just discover the concept of 'sport'?
Somebody get her a participation medal, STAT
I hate it when people are fitter than me. And that's why we must ban trans people from society
*Bans everyone over 6ft from the NBA
so she wants a participation trophy?
Well, that is sport 🤷🏻♀️
That's literally how sports work
Yeah. That's what sports is. Take your participation to little leagues.
Seems to me like you’ve kinda missed the fucking point
Is she only just working out what sport is? Some people have biological advantages.
I’d have a moment’s concern for their worries if any of them expressed genuine empathy or took even five minutes to learn about trans women, instead of treating their knee-jerk bigotry like it was valid debate.
You’re describing competition.
That is why trans women have been winning all the women's gold medals during the decades they have been eligible to compete. Right? RIGHT? 🙄🤦♀️
this is why tall ppl arent allowed to play basketball has she banged her head or had covid r somehitng
Isn’t that the definition of sport?
That's how sport works. Michael Phelps was 'biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster' than his rivals and I don't see them whining about it.
All sport is unfair unless everyone finishes at exactly the same time. 8 gold medallists in the swimming.
lol, I hate that too, she should be disqualified
God help us…finally someone is speaking comon sense on the topic at last
Tell us you don't understand transitioning without telling us you don't understand transitioning. 🤦🏻♂️ If 'unfair biological advantages' were a legit issue, Michael Phelps or Usain Bolt would never have been allowed near any professional sport.
Shows she has less of an understanding of what a 'trans' woman actually is biologically, and what the current completion rules are that I do. She should Google it, at least. Poor performers shouldn't blame their tools.
Isn't the whole point of sports that someone fitter, faster, and stronger can beat you? Also, trans women are not super dominant permawinners if you look at the actual data and not your gut feelings you mistakenly refer to as biological truth.
Wait... Isn't that kind of how sport works? 🤔
Isn't that literally how sports work
Isn't she the Harvey Norman ambassador?
🎩
Not the same. Will never be the same. Everybody knows this. Stop lying.
The casual assumption that trans athletes don't also put effort into training is symptomatic of the monstering and dehumanisation of trans people by these bigots, as well as their entitled certainty that they deserve to be seen as superior.
Professional athlete doesn't understand how athletics work... Literally the entire point of sport is that you train for years and lose to someone stronger, fitter, faster than you.
Born a man
That's sport. She is describing playing a sport.
A strange comment from an athlete. There'll always be someone biologically fitter, stronger, faster. Should those who consistently win more than others be banned because they're winning too much by being fitter, stronger and faster? Do they have an unfair advantage as well?
Tadej Pogacar has won the last two tour de Frances because he is 'biologicaller fitter, stronger, and faster'. Same for Anna van der breggen in the Giro Rosa. This is the fact of sports. The winner is the fittest, strongest, and fastest Otherwise just
Is that not how sport works? There will always be someone better that’s how sports aren’t always a drawer
so she's speaking from personal experience? Of knowing all her opponents so intimately before she races them? thinking about their genitals and endocrinology? No because that'd be perverted? Right well her opinion's as worthless as your sewer of a station.
Bobby wagner would replace derek carr as a linebacker because he's 'biologically fitter, stronger (and) faster'
I'm sorry, I thought that figuring out who's fitter, stronger, and faster was kind of the entire point of professional athletics.
So another female athlete speaks out honestly. Whom are we to believe? It seems that the reports of female athletes support for biological males competing against biological women may have been grossly exaggerated!
Good to see there are still genuine‘women’ left in this world, that admit men are better at certain things. Instead of feminists, who are triggered by undeniable facts. She isxa women worthy of defending.
so… She shouldn’t be competing I’m sure there are thousands of competitors for whom Emily is biologically fitter stronger and faster.
This is why I never even tried to compete in chess tournaments I didn’t want all the time training and studying to be wasted because someone intellectually smarter, wiser and more knowledgeable could just beat me and it would be so unfair.
I was never good at school sports because there was always someone biologically fitter, stronger and faster than me. ...plus Gillian always cheated at the egg and spoon race because she had a great big spoon that was really deep. WHY AREN'T WE TALKING ABOUT THAT?
That's what sport is.
That’s exactly my point. No issue with trans but it’s just unfair for them to compete with girls who have been training so hard for years inky to have their dreams dashed. Women are not physically built as men, period.
That's literally sport though. If she doesn't want that to happen she shouldn't be a professional athlete.
That’s…she just described sports. It’s like a footballer saying it isn’t fair that Renaldo is also playing football. Or track athletes saying Usain Bolt shouldn’t be allowed to compete because…he’s faster than most people?
Biological males should not compete against females! SIMPLE
The actual percentage of gender diverse Australians, per the 2016 census, is 0.00515343%: 1,206 people out of 23,401,892, or 1 in every 19,404. There were 100 M-F TG women (all ages) in that frightening number. Clearly, transgender athleticism is overwhelming sport as we know it
She is dead right. There should be an alternate competition
NeverTrustNewsCorp
Unfortunately, there's always going to be someone biologically fitter, stronger and faster than everyone else who finishes 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etcetera.
The great non issue being championed by the bigot news outlets as a distraction from the last 3 years of mismanagement and corruption
Fact.
Hypotheticals are fun. You guys are obsessed with genitals, its quite odd.
🤣FemiNazi won't like this!! You just [technically] cut there blls off!😆
So, how many trans swimmers has Emily Seebohm ever had to race against?
Completely Agree 👏🏼
Ditch the Card, pay the $12,000 to Pensioners instead of Indue. Stop treating Adults like kids with an allowance
It’s just facts
$12,000 per year per card in Admin fees so a private company owned by Libs can treat Adults like children
When was she beaten by a transgender. All hypothetical rubbish from SkyFakeNews
The whole “trans women can’t play women’s sport because they’re biologically stronger” argument is very flawed. Does that mean tall people shouldn’t be allowed to play basketball? They have an unfair biological advantage after all. Just saying 🤷🏼♂️
OMFG! Bluey defeats Sky again! What’s going on at Sky? Why is it so 💩?”
the anger at Deves is not trans playing sport... the anger is her portayal at them being Mutliated Sexual Predators and likening herself to standing up to NAZI's ... in what country is this rhetoric acceptable?
“I trained for years to run marathons really fast and some fucker from fucking Kenya fucking beat me I think Kenyans should be allowed to compete they should have their own competition they’re cheating!” DO YOU MOTHERFUCKERS HAVE THE SELF-AWARENESS TO LISTEN TO YOURSELVES?!?!?!
👏👏
Shame on you sky news for continuously pushing this story. It’s peoples’ lives not a debate.
Can she tell me how many times she has been beaten by a transgender woman, interested to know how much experience she has with it.
all those freak show 'guys' that are offended when ppl try to say no to trans in women sport should let the actual women in sport make the argument like this
About time the sports women started speaking up instead of letting men champion the cause of fairness and being on the receiving end of unjust vilification from the leftard feminazis politicians and media.
Trans Comedy? 2 minute video:
Well done for speaking up, we need more to do the same!! This madness needs to stop no more trans!!!
again I say,, a 1st world order 'dilemma' maybe 1/2 of 1% might identify/be transgender --- what r the odds of girls sport being dominated by blokes
BuggaThe Cancel her for such heresy.
How is this an election issue?
Ban transgender from women's sports
Honestly, I don't think transgenders should be allowed to compete with ladies, very devastating...☹️
Shouldn't even be up for debate. With elite swimmers, one who is a (biological) male will always be faster than a female.
