The transgender conquest of women’s sports continued over the weekend as a New Zealand weightlifter took home multiple gold medals at the 2019 Pacific Games in Samoa.

Laurel Hubbard won two gold medals and a silver in the three heavyweight categories, for women weighing more than 87 kilograms, or 192 pounds, finishing first in the snatch-lift and combined categories and second in the clean-and-jerk.

I can’t wait to see what the transgender movement does to “women’s” basketball at both the college and professional level.

The trans movement should kill professional women’s sports. Nobody is going to pay to see a bunch of second rate male athletics pretending to be women play one another.

Can’t wait to see this hit the US women’s soccer team.

Heck of a price to willingly pay to be good, for a few years, maybe.

Once again, we have men defining what it means to be a woman. This is an outrage.

This is ridiculous. Are you suggesting that 100% of the male population is Republican, and 100% female is Democrat?

It is a sad and terrible thing for women’s sports to be taken over and defined by men. For a people to survive, it is just as important for women to be physically fit as for men. It is important for women to enjoy and master organized sports as it is for men. Healthy and physically fit women handle the rigors of pregnancy and childbirth, and the demands of raising young children.

In our modern civilization, where men and women have all the benefits of technology, physical fitness is not a given. Therefore sports and games are important for both sexes, to help maintain good health and longer lives. To take away from women the inspiration and the fun of this, to make physical exercise a drudgery for which there is no reward, is stupid, even a little cruel, and should not be coupled with the desire for some sort of revenge because there may or may not be a slightly greater percentage of women voting for democrat candidates than men.

Why should women have their own separation of sports competition by gender? I thought they wanted true equality? Can't they keep up without artificial borders?

It seems to be too much sauce for the goose.

"Nice snatch."

Y'beat me to it. I was going to quote "first in the snatch lift."

The funny thing about all of this is that it's going to make women's athletics all about ex-men, who can't compete with the regular men. And as a consequence, there will be no place for elite women athletes.

The obvious solution... compete with your chromosome class.. is unlikely to be followed. Instead, we'll likely have a third gender class forced upon us, first in amateur sports (high school and college), with demands for more later.

Are you ready for the TNBA (Trans-)?

I wonder if women being routinely humiliated by tranny’s would knock some sense into them or if they will continue to vote for the gimmies from the dhimmies??????

Hoping for more and more transgender ‘champtions’ until the sane women and men of the world get together and put a stop to the insanity.

Fortunately, she did not have to contend with a visit from “the Cardinal” during the event.

finishing first in the snatch-lift

and second in the clean-and-jerk

Probably has just enough left over to clean-and-jerk.
