Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas' demand she be allowed to compete against women in the Olympics has been dealt a fatal blow after she lost a crucial lawsuit.

Thomas, 25, had asked the Court of Arbitration for Sport to overturn a ban on biological males competing against women in hopes of racing at the Games.

She first rose to prominence after becoming the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA college title in 2022 and has since been banned from competing against biological women in international events following a change in regulations.

He’ll be fine.

Young men gather wisdom by doing dumb stuff and learning from it.

When one can’t peddle one’s DEI nonsense to the IOC, one is a goner.

He…. HE. It’s HE. Only way it even makes sense is to make it read correctly.

It is amazing that a man (albeit pretending to be a woman) doesn't have enough pride or sense of shame to cease and desist his effort to blatantly try to bully women in a woman's sport.

Frankly, it looks like more mental illness...as if believing he is a woman isn't enough.

It's called psychopathy.

He’ll get rid of the dresses now, get legal help and write a book. His 15 minutes are up.

Fixed it.

He's a guy who isn't good enough to win against other guys, so decided to cheat women out of their chances for winning just to boost his ego.

Glad HE lost.

Does it still have male parts???

Parts or not, he still has a man's physique and that puts him at a HUGE advantage.

It's very unfair to women.

IT does - according to the women who were in the female locker room with HIM and he dropped trou.

No warning, nothing. His penis was visible and he had NO modesty.
