An American expert on transgender rights and politics says the participation of New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard at the Tokyo Olympics could inspire other trans athletes.

He needs to compete with men. He is a cheater.

Silver is Gold this year.

Could inspire more bullshit, you mean

I wonder why we almost never see trans-men competing and dominating men's sports? 🧐

I can't wait until fake women take all the medals from real women so that real women get back to the kitchen where they belong. And it will be fun watching the crap get beat out of fake men every day of the week if they ever decide to get inclusived too.

Just another step in reducing the number of biological women from sport...everything's fine

how does the tweet say inspire and the headline say polarize. I know you know the difference

New Zealand are cheating

Hubbard has about 4 - 7 times more testosterone than a healthy woman.

Maybe it should inspire getting rid of all gender speration. Everyone competes against everyone. It should also inspire getting rid of the lower physical standards for women in the military. Mental things, aside, that's a male body competing against female ones.

“Science only works when it fits your narrative”… someone that actually believe is science

Does the AP as a member in good standing of the propaganda ministry support the end of woman’s sports?

Thats just wrong. I’m a regular 50 something old dad who works out regularly at the gym and in no way can go up against even crappy competitive male weightlifters but I can definitely break many of the women’s world record power lifting records. That just no fair.

At the end of the day she was born with the strength of a man.

Not fair… ridiculous!

Its the Olympics, who gives a crap anyway

This person took a spot from a female athlete. Shame on Mew Zealand. SaveWomensSports

This is fkg ridiculous

Men beating woman how far have we come LMAO

No one challenges the participation of trans-gender athletes in the sports of their original sex.

RIP women’s sports.

Inspire?

heavy weght man vomen

Unfair competition for other competitors. Won’t be surprised if she wins gold

It's nonsense to divide people by the sex of their minds when they are competing for physical ability.

We are going to witness all Women's top champions be men. Patriarchy wins again.

But what does it mean for biological females? We are potentially witnessing an erosion of women’s rights and equality.

At that time, women's sports will be a world of transgenders. At that time, sports will be more inclusive than ever before. Let the teams of countries against LGBT go to hell. There was a great political victory for the left wing fighters

Should the Olympic Committee set up a new group called 'alternative group'?

You misspelled the headline 'Allowing men to play women's sports will encourage more men to compete in women's sports'

Are any of those trans competing in the men's Olympics? No! Because this post is about cheating!

There is no such thing as “transgender”! It is nothing more than a made up term by liberals for some one denying HIS biological reality! BELIEVEINSCIENCE!

'Expert' lmfao

LoL downfall of US is not far away. It may not be in the line of USSR but certainly a small America will have a America with suicidal thinking. 😋

No worries, we’ll create the Trans only Olympics!

If the women athletes do not stand united to protest this and fight for their right to fair competition then who are we to complain? If they care, it's their fight. If they don't give a shit why should we?

Literally that south park episode

Should be completing in a transgender category or non binary gender

The end of the Olympics as we know it. So much hypocrisy from the Olympics committee.

I'm going to post a cis female competitor of Laurel per day once the Olympics are underway. Follow along

so why not to give back all medals to DDR swimmers?

This is so wrong. Love who you want to love. Cross dress if you want to. Remove your penis/vagina if you want to. BUT, it is unfair for someone who was born male to compete in sports/w someone born female. It is wrong & women have no chance of beating a big ass man weightlifting.

Yes. Just as women's sport is taking off around the world let's let the men in to crush them. Progress everyone, wooo!!

Transgender women are being scapegoated by bigots to push a regressive and hateful agenda. The Olympics is about competition. Let the best person win.
