NBC News issued an apology after calling a female Olympic skiing competitor by her actual pronouns.

Elis Lundholm, who competed in women’s moguls during the Winter Olympics, is indeed a female, but she claims male identity and uses male pronouns.

The Swedish athlete also wears baggy clothing and has a masculine haircut.

[ConservativeStatement]

"Their" feelings were hurt.

[ealgeone]

Just one more reason I’ve not washed any of the olympics.

The 11th Commandment - Thou Shalt Not Mis-Gender.

[Waverunner]

Was “He” competing against the men?

[lgjhn23]

Whadda bunch of pure insanity and utter complete BS.....

[Secret Agent Man]

Just proved shes a female.

[butlerweave]

LOL

[Dilbert San Diego]

This is what we would have to know. If she was competing against other females, it’s understandable that she would be referred to as a female.

This pronoun business is such nonsense.

[jerod]

Maybe ‘it’ should compete in the ‘it’ Olympics soon to be staged on yearly basis in Thailand... Where the boys are girls, the girls are girls and the tourist and competitors are all perverts.

[Ge0ffrey]

Switch it OFF.

[Vaduz]

No more he’s or she’s just Thing 1 or Thing two or not yet Thing the crazy will still whine about it.

[ZOOKER]

If she's competing in a woman's competition, why does she insist on men's pronouns?

Guess I get it now --- if they let her do this, then they have to let actual men compete in women's sports, too.

“Just one more reason I’ve not washed any of the olympics”

Nor watched, not a minute, other than any after the fact reports during the sports segment on the local news hour. The first time probably since 1972. To many shitbird, woke, America hating / Trump hating punks on the USA Team. screw em’

“ Whadda bunch of pure insanity and utter complete BS.....”

A fiasco. Start to finish. I tuned out a week ago after giving it a tune-out-the-leftists try

It made me sick. All of it

[jmaroneps37]

Yes they should have called her skiperson

[econjack]

If she competed in the Women's event, it's she.

[reasonisfaith]

I take great pleasure in using the words he and she the way they’re supposed to be used.

[gibsonguy]

Ugh, yeah that’s great just keep enabling their mental disorder.

[Biblebelter]

Biology matters.

So do words.

She is a she.

Just like Butch Madcow is a she.

[Jane Long]

NBSC needs to apologize for kowtowing to this disorder.
