At Cromwell High, Transgender Athlete Competes With Girls For First Time (And Wins Every Time!)
Hartford Courant ^ | 4-7-2017 | Matthew Conyers

With family, friends and teammates cheering her on at her first high school track meet, Andraya won the girls 100- and 200-meter dashes, and helped her 4x100-meter relay team take second place. She ran 11.99 seconds in the 100 and 26.34 in the 200.

"I do hope I inspire people, but not only with track," Andraya said Wednesday. "I hope it inspires people to not hold yourself back just because you're scared of it or it is your first time doing it, or because of other people's negativity.

There's a solution to this-- those girls have just got to hit the gym and do some reps.

I worked with a girl in the Summer of 1965 who would have beaten his ass. She was probably not too far off the women’s world record tho I don’t think she ever competed.

I ran a 10.4 and she would make me run close to max to beat her. She was also a beautiful blonde.

Lol, there’s a lot more than “some reps” involved in that photo. Not sure what.

If any guy can claim to be a women now, then there’s no longer any protections for women.
Bears repeating.

I can’t wait until he/it is beating some liberal’s daughter week after week. Because now they have to suck it up. They own this mess.

Speaking of beautiful blondes-- you know who could kick your friend's ass? Caitlyn Jenner. Va-va-voom. That's what we're fighting for back home, boys! Now go kill some Syrians/North Koreans

I read the entire article. Not even the smallest mention of the problems with this. Not one.

You can’t do propaganda much better than that.

I'm sure the girls on the other teams he is cheating out of medals think this is just fabulous.

And what exactly is he being brave about? He's just a guy cheating girls out of medals.

Was your a 10.4 for 100 yds or 100 meters?

Back in ‘65 I would say 100 yds.

Jenner has to be really, really messed up.

He was a great athlete, not just a little great but the best in the world.

Bingo. Give him/her a full athletic scholarship to Stanford, for the womens’ team. That is worth at least $250,000.

It was 9.6 in the 100 yards. That converts roughly to 10.4 in the 100 meters.

You nailed it.

Well, the women champion this sort of thing more than anyone else. If they can life with it, erasing every girl’s name from the nation’s record books, I guess it’s up to them.

I’d tell the guy to get back out of the girl’s locker room.

I’d also prevent him from competing against women.

Start a cross gender team or something.

This simply isn’t fair to the women’s programs.

“She cut off her ‘male problem’ because it had to be tucked in.

How about those two protruding ‘female glands’? Don’t they have to be tucked in?

The latest on Title IX:

In February 2017, the departments of justice and education under the Trump administration withdrew the guidance on gender identity issued by the Obama administration.
