A two-time Olympian has ripped rules that allowed a transgender runner to beat nearly 14,000 women in the female category of the London Marathon.
Mara Yamauchi — who finished sixth in the marathon at the 2008 Beijing Olympics — lashed out after trans racer Glenique Frank, 54, gushed to the BBC about using “girl power” to run the key UK race on Sunday.
“Males in the [female] category is UNFAIR for females,” Yamauchi tweeted alongside a clip of the mid-race interview by the sports bra-wearing runner who also gushed about soon becoming “a gran.”
“Nearly 14,000 actual females suffered a worse finish position [because] of” Frank, wrote Yamauchi — who said that even when she was “ranked second in the world” as a woman, “at least 1300 men ran faster than me.”
She noted how UK Athletics applied World Athletics’ rules on the exclusion of transgender women from elite female competitions at the end of March to make it “fair for athletes who have gone through male puberty to be excluded from the female category in athletics.”
However, it allowed those who had already entered races to still compete in categories that were not their biological sex.
“This male competed under UK Athletics’ transitional arrangements, but it is still wrong and unfair,” Yamauchi told Telegraph Sport.

I just think how most of humanity sees their body today is disturbing. From skin bleaching to plastic surgery to the extreme. There seems to be no end to disfigurement these days....
Many women don’t think or want protecting....and women look down on those who might think that way.
Just when the left thought they had everything their own way, this comes along to show them the law of unintended consequences did not go away. Sort of like when the enviro-maniacs slash the SUV tires of a good solid Democrat voter in a big city, or rioting black anarchists burn down a leftist hangout. Friendly fire.
Frankly, it’s like rape in broad daylight, no matter which sport is involved.

HAHAHA. Enjoy the suck girls!
Hmmm....so far it hasn’t been too many women who have come out and done the dirty work-—Riley Gaines (already the champ) and a few others. Men should have taken the initiative as MEN, the fact that they haven’t has made it a lonely struggle for the women involved. It’s representatives of their own “gender” that are causing all these problems, and acting as agents of whatever Social Agenda is at play here....I guess that’s the frightening thing, in that case, for men to go up against their own.

more male supremacy
just rack his nuts
that should slow him down

He said in the future he will register as male or other. I hope that is true.
The headline should read.....
“Man lied and cheated so he could unfairly win a race by competing in a category he knew he did not belong in because it gave him an unfair advantage.”
The guy won nothing. He only proved what a big loser he was to the whole world because he has such ego and manhood issues that he needs to destroy others lives to try to feel good about himself.
So he could beat a woman. Big deal. He still couldn’t beat another man.
I remember when women were "liberating" men's rooms, invading them and blocking men from entering, because they said that there weren't enough women's rest rooms.
I remember when women were invading men's spaces -- men's clubs, men's gyms, men's high school sports, the military, the police, etc. -- at first demanding equal access, and later special treatment.
I guess we’ve all become too wussified.
Nope. Men are simply stepping aside and giving the ladies the world they wanted.
Saddens me to see women having to do all the work.
Gladdens me to see men refusing to "white knight" for women as a group. Unless I know the woman, she's on her own.
I hear woman complain about trannies invading their spaces. I don't hear any women apologizing for invading men's spaces.
Learn to post for crying out loud. We got your point.
I hope you get help. Sick.
Quit.
This is the same scenario Decent blacks face with crime. They are the only ones who can stop it but wont for whatever reason.
black pride,
woman pride
Neither has enough guts to talk about it. if they did they would find out theres more decent folks than sickos. but the sickos are much more violent and loud.
