Russia's women's powerlifting and bench press world champion Anna Turaeva has told of her humiliation at being asked to prove she is a woman by airline employees while boarding an internal Russian flight recently. Turaeva is a six-time world champion in powerlifting, as well as a ten-time European champion and has held the world, European and Eurasian records in her discipline. She is also a bench press champion and record holder.
The stocky, skin-headed Turaeva was flying from St. Petersburg in the very north west of Russia, to the southern town of Krasnodar through Moscow when she experienced an incident she described as "humiliating" while boarding her flight.

I was giving her the benefit of the doubt until seeing the pictures. Man muscles, tats, shaved head, torso showing no boobs but masculine outline with no feminine waste and narrow hips. Is that a 5 o’clock shadow? Not one picture online wearing anything and posed anyway but male. Oh, yeah, that’s a man, baby. Or Russia has pumped a gross amount of steroids into it.
Why should she be humiliated? There are pictures of her kissing females. If it isn’t a male, it sure wants to be.
Crazy isn’t about how someone looks.
If some dude looked like the Swede (I seriously know absolutely nothing about the person in question) and thought he was a chick he’d be just as crazy as the weight lifter.
Frankly, if homosexual acts and “gender reassignment” (mutilation) surgeries had remained illegal everywhere as they should have we wouldn’t have to be putting up with so much of this crap.
Based on the photos, she appears to go out of her way to look like a man, and then she’s surprised why her ID causes confusion. Nope, I don’t feel sorry for her.
The only thing I might suggest is for the airline to question her privately instead of in front of other people.
No one would ever think the Swede was a boy
It is a man with a package
I didn’t say that I did.
“If some dude looked like the Swede” simply qualified a hypothetical on visual inspection less obviously a man compared to the guy this thread is about.
I wouldn’t mind “investigating” the Swede
