Transgender runner to complete ‘big six’ marathons as three different genders

[quote] Glenique Frank, who apologised after last year’s London Marathon following criticism for running in the female category, is calling on race organisers to now introduce a specific category for transgender athletes.

I think this is a great idea.

Something that should have been done from the very beginning.

yawn

Yup, not mentally ill at all!

Attention! Attention!

OP you couldn't exist without your hate. Sadly your father waited too long to transition. Pity.

Girl Power!

How dare you don’t validate their delusion. Trans women are women! Putting them in their own category is literal violence. They’re dopers.

There will be 2 runners in a tranny race.

Glenique? Sounds like a cheap knockoff of Clinique

How will this proposal work? “Governments” will have to do genitalia checks and then break it to the people with penises that, sadly, they are going to be considered men and will have to compete against other men, when their entire identities are formed around the premise that a penis does NOT make them male?

Or do you just take a competitor’s word for whichever sex they feel they are on race day?

He/she/they is AMAZING

No, R8.

I'm not sure this would solve anything, since Daventry would wipe the floor in the transgender category against female born runners who identify as men.

Just make two separate categories, R12.

Trans male and Trans female.

That would account for biological differences.

Which proves that men who complete as women have an inherent advantage r13

Why are some of you so obsessed with transgender folks?

What in fuck does it matter to you?

I sure as hell know you’re not running in a race.

oh I dunno, maybe the added expense and administrative burden of organizing events for 1 or 2 mentally ill people?

National Review, r6? You trolls *love* your far right rags.

Your only post, r16?

You know what my mother would say: "I wouldn't brag about it."

Let’s take a major invitational road race. You fill out your app and you check boxes.

Male Female Trans for instance. Then you show up and race.

And don’t get caught cheating. It’s an approach that makes a lot of sense.

Agree completely. Women are the ones hurt by trans participation in sports, not men. Let trans have their own sports category.

Gotta load up on all the anti-trans threads, right OP?

My only question is always what part(s) were they born with and what’s under the hood now? Other than that c’est la vie & god bless. Or unicorn 🦄 bless or spirit 🕯️ candle bless

Tranny fucker alert at r23

Surely only professional runners care about a marathon position. If you're not in the top 20, no one cares.

Any long distance runner I know only cares about their time. Which they'll get regardless of category. Once again, it's much ado about nothing.

Gurl needs to wear more Sunscreen and Moisturizer. Such bad facial wrinkling you could dig for gold in them.

R26

I have known 100s of non professionals who competed in various sports. The operative term being competed. We worked hard to be able to compete, to make the medal round. We worked hard to win those states or nationals. And we took those age, weight, belt, and sex catagories seriously.

Lots of non professionals compete most not in marathons.

R28 But the OP refers to the Boston marathon. Only professional runners will come anywhere close to the top.

I'm not against there being a trans category (and I'm not sure who would be really). I just don't think a non-professional trans woman competing in a female category in a marathon is anything like a trans woman competing in, say, the Olympics.

R17 You cannot just change something that's real and factual by ignoring or refuting it.

Can you prove this story is untrue?

R16

The recent Gallup survey showed more Gen Z identifying as Trans than identify as Gay males. Its not out of the question to assume the percent of trans will grow and this competing in sports will become a larger issue.

R30 the trannies and their tranny fucker beta cucks handmaidens always use the “attack the messenger” strategy rather than engage with the facts, because reality is transphobic and the entire transgender identity is based on a lie.
