Yet Laidley won, and my jigsaw puzzle lost. The fix was in, I guess.

Many social media users were outraged by Maxim Australia's "Hot 100" list after it included a transgender woman.
"Welcome to the 2023 Ultra Tune MAXIM HOT 100 – our annual, eclectic and definitive list of Australian women who have impressed, made headlines or simply had a huge year. The past 12 months saw an abundance of fine and fierce femmes who have wowed us with their aptitude, intellect, humour, attributes and overall incredible talents," Maxim Australia Editor-in-Chief Santi Pintado said in a statement announcing the list.
In the 92nd spot on the list, Maxim Australia included Dani Laidley, a transgender woman. Laidley was a coach in the Australian Football League before transitioning in 2020.
Laidley's inclusion on the list sparked criticism from many social media users.
"#92 of top 100 hottest 'women' in the world according to Maxim magazine in Australia," former college Division I swimmer, Riley Gaines, wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "How did we get to a point where companies/institutions/publications can do this with no fear of backlash?"
Conservatives have spoken out against LGBTQ+ and transgender individuals this year, with Bud Light facing a boycott after partnering with Dylan Mulvaney, a transgender activist and influencer. In the U.S., Republican state leaders have sought to ban gender-affirming medical care for minors. In Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis signed legislation that barred transgender women from competing in female sports.
A number of other social media users criticized Maxim Australia this week, such as the Libs of TikTok X account, which said: "Beyond parody. This male just won a spot on the top "Hottest 100 Women" list. They're mocking us."

I am happy about this shows who the enemy is and gives another corp to boycott. Goodness gracious when will these corps learn
Are you kidding me. Just damn.
“No such animal as a “transgender woman”. Idiots.”
You took the words right out of my mouth.
Thanks for ruining my dinner!

Godless Reprobates.
Just as prophesied in Romans 1:24:28.
TBH - I am very concerned about the next 20 years - I know old people have always been “kids today,” but isn’t it different *this* time??? This feels more - serious and the seams are popping and the stuffing is coming out.
Can’t wait to hear about their layoffs...
Yuck!
Didn’t even know MAXIM was still published. I suppose this lack of publicity weighed in on their decision for this outrageous perversion - bad publicity is at least publicity.
I’m sure there are some Maxim readers who find her really inspirational.
It is FUGLY!
Regarding this entire LGBQXYZ lifestyle taking hold in American society, right down to our little children, I have to say, that’s some sick effing 5h it and evil to its core.
This is It ?
A Toucan Parrot 🦜
It’s Shrinkage!
This is not the Maxim magazine that I used to buy as a young man. Smh
😳 wow, maxim’s idea of hot and woman,, is seriously gone down hill.
Reminds me of Gollum.
