Transgender Runner to Compete Against Women in NCAA Division I
Breitbart ^ | August 30, 2019

Posted on 08/30/2019 9:08:47 AM PDT by lowbridge

If Juniper Eastwood is feeling particularly motivated on a training day, she’s up at 6 a.m.

She eats a banana and plugs in a podcast before taking off on an 11- to 12-mile run. She should stretch, but is often short on time. After a shower and getting dressed, she heads to work as a camp counselor for a youth empowerment program.

Eastwood’s routine is similar to that of other college athletes practicing in the offseason. She has to prepare for grueling cross-country practices while balancing work or school.

The difference between Eastwood and her teammates on the University of Montana’s cross-country team is the testosterone-suppression and estrogen pills she takes as part of her training regimen.

Eastwood was assigned male at birth, but identifies as female. She’s transgender.

On Aug. 31, the 22-year-old will compete in a cross-country meet in the women’s division for the very first time. She’ll be the first Division I trans athlete to compete in her sport.

“(I’m) nervous and excited. Nervous for what that means and how people will react, but excited because I haven’t competed in 15 months, and excited to get this started,” Eastwood told the Bozeman Daily Chronicle.

Eastwood was assigned male at birth ....

He was "assigned" male the moment the Y-carrying sperm hit on the X-carrying ovum. Everything else is a charade.

Frankly, I have no problem whatsoever with this left-generated stupidity.

I think it is hilarious...the left have forced into culture the concept that there are multiple genders and they must be recognized.

The far left created this problem, now they must live with the product.

Boo-Freekin-Hoo.

> XY Runner to Compete Against Women in NCAA Division I <

Seriously, that will be the only way to save women’s sports. Rename them XX and XY sports. But will the NCAA even consider that? No way. Because it might upset some LGBT person. (I hope I didn’t miss a letter just there. I don’t want to get in trouble.)

"Y" Chromosome = he

It ain't rocket science.

Sadly,there are very probably at least a few,if not many,actual women who will be denied the recognition...and awards...that they've worked so hard for because of this delusional sissy boy.

LOL, women athletes are complaining that they don’t earn as much as men. Now they won’t even get to the professional or top level of paid athletes because the trans will make up the women’s teams.

The following sentence is from the article and one reason to have a problem with this entire freak show.

Can’t wait to hear how “stunning” and “brave” it is when “she” reaks the record by a ton.

Excellent point!

Although, nothing much surprises me that comes from the U of Montana...or Moscow in the Rockies as we Idahoans say.

The women athletes could take care of this nonsense if they all refused to compete against any male runner.

Sit down at the starting block when the gun goes off. Let the fool run by himself.

How can there be any division by sex anymore, women’s sports could be eliminated if carried to it’s logical conclusion. Then the foolishness of pay equity for sports that don’t generate the same amount of income [ie:women’s soccer vs. men’s] would be a moot point.
