[[The reason I point this out is to set a base line of what a failure Thomas is as a swimmer]]
But but but he beat a woman... he’s so proud of that!
Which was exactly the motivation behind Buffalo Bill in "Silence of the Lambs"; and Demme would not back down -- in his Oscar acceptance speech for Best Director, he called the script "extraordinarily moral".
"Here's something else I 'm not supposed to say, ain't but two genders. TWO GENDERS! Ain't nothin' but men and women. And I can already see WRAL out there, they lickin' their pencils right now trying to write fears of decay'... Get every word of this here. Get every word of this!You can go to the doctor and get cut up. You can go down to the dress shop and get made up. You can down there and get drugged up. But at the end of the day, you just a drugged-up, dressed-up, made-up, cut-up, MAN OR WOMAN. You ain't changed what God put in you, that DNA! You can't transcend God's creation! I don't care how hard you try.
It's time for us to stand up, I'm not afraid to stand up and tell the truth about that issue.
They're draggin' our kids down into the pit of hell, tryin' to teach them that mess in our schools. Tell you like this: that ain't got no place at no school! 2+2 don't equal transgender, it equals 4! You need to get back to teachin' them how to read, instead of teachin' them how to go to hell. Yeah, I said and I mean it!"

I was a pretty good ocean swimmer. Decided to see what I could do in the pool at the local Junior college. My fifty yards was two seconds behind the record. Two seconds is a lifetime. I think even the fastest woman beat my measly 24 seconds.
This guy should know better and just leave women to compete. This is destroying womens sports and as you said, they’re happy to get scholarships to schools and show their ribbons and medals to their family and friends.
It’s a tragedy what is happening. I remember the East German and Russian teams including the old Chinese teams but I think that’s the past? Now America plays the steroid/gender thing? It’s bad all around
No wonder everyone thinks Mrs Obamanation ain’t a woman.
You forgot your sarcasm tag.
I need to hear this, as I know nothing about swim speeds.
Hallelujah!
Ban them both forever.
“You forgot your sarcasm tag.”
Nope, not in my book. It’s people like Lia that GET THINGS DONE.
For example, within a few days of him(her) winning in Ohio, Kristi Noem decided that it probably is NOT a good idea to have guys take over women’s sports. If he/she hadn’t won, she would have never gotten off her ass on the issue.
Even more (or as) suspicious than the 3.4 second dropoff is giving up going under 50 so easily. That’s sort of a milestone in short course 100 free. It reeks of a competitor trying to throw a race who is not very good at making it look convincing. Alternatively, maybe somebody shot him halfway down the first length. Maybe severe cramping or some other injury. It’s about like a runner suddenly adding 3+ seconds to his 440 yards or 400 meters time.
I competed in the sport back in the Dark Ages and coached it for a few years only slightly more recently. This looks pretty suspicious.
