"It appears that an athlete who is biologically male and who now identifies as female competed in the Women’s Open category. Official Strongman officials were unaware of this fact ahead of the competition and we have been urgently investigating since being informed. An attempt has been made to contact the competitor involved but a response has not been received,’ the statement continued. The organization added that if they were aware of Booker’s alleged gender identity, ‘…this athlete would not have been permitted to compete in the Woman’s Open category.’ “We are clear - competitors can only compete in the category for the biological sex recorded at birth.”
From the article, ‘their’ social media post about winning is very interesting, given, you know..
‘You are all insanely bada** women and it was an honor just to even share the stage with you and to be there to cheer you on and be cheered on by you,’ Booker said, fighting back tears.
'I genuinely did not expect this outcome and I’m not saying that in a way to gloat or be prideful. When I signed up for this competition I did not expect to win - it was a pipe dream.’
She continued: 'Obviously everyone enters a competition wanting to win but I did not think this would be the one for me and the fact that it is, I’m genuinely lost for words.
I’m still of the opinion that all men should compete in ranked female leagues and take every single podium until women have had enough and they reverse course.
I cant stand feminism, but id take JK Rowling over the inconsistent babble coming from tranny-enabling women.
I find it comical that in hearings and debates with them claiming that there is no scientific evidence that males might have a biological advantage in sports.
I guess the decades of record keeping in track and field and others sports doesn’t count.
I’m not quite here yet. Simply because I think there is only a small group that are pushing this vs. a significant portion of left leaning folks. If this was a 30% strongly agree, 25% agree for dems, ~20% neutral, I’d agree and say tear it all down. Give them what they want so they can see how bad it is.
I live in a liberal stronghold and have never heard anyone say that they think men (trans women) should compete in women’s sports. I can’t imagine anyone thinking it makes sense who is not pursuing an agenda that has nothing to do with fairness in sports.
