When I read the title, I thought, WTH. Of course, actually READING the article, put a lie to the headline.

Thanks. I had never heard of that.

According to Wikipedia, Ratjen was born with ambiguous genitalia and was raised as a girl, and he kept it up even though he realized that he was a man: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinrich_Ratjen

Given that he was found out to be male, and he returned his medal and had his records expunged, by 1939, it is absurd that Facebook won’t let you post that. That he was a man has been public knowledge for over 80 years!

Did the girls ever win against a boy? If so how long did it take for the biy who lost to die from shame?

Fast forward to today...

Do flamin' queer boys wrestle against straight ones?

Talk about SHAME if you lose THAT match!!

[Elsie]

ESpecially when we now pound it into boys’ heads not to TOUCH a girl without her signed, sealed and delivered ‘permission’.

[Elsie]

yup

Then there is this about the '36 games...

---

The 1936 Summer Olympics were organized in Berlin, Germany at a time when Adolf Hitler was in power. Hitler used these Games as a stage for showing the rise of the Nazi Germany to the world. His philosophy was that the whites, especially Germans, were a better and the only civilized race on the face of earth. Colored, weak and Jews had no right to live among the civilized people, that’s what he thought.

But, in Berlin, Hitler was left red-faced by Jesse Owens; a black, track & field sportsperson from the United States. Owens won four gold medals (100m, 200m, 4x100m and long jump) beating all his white and German competitors. Hitler was reportedly annoyed by Owens’ performance because it thwarted his ideology that considered black people inferior. Owens’ feat was one of the biggest blows to what Hitler preached during his lifetime.

The photograph shows Owens standing on medal podium in gold position and saluting the American flag. People appearing this photograph include (left to right):

• Theodor Lewald (Germany): Member of the Olympic Organizing Committee
• Naoto Tajima (Japan): Bronze medalist
• Jesse Owens (USA): Gold Medalist
• Carl Ludwig “Luz” Long (Germany): Silver Medalist

The Germans are doing a Nazi salute. It was reported that Hitler refused to shake hands with Owens (Owens later said that Hitler merely waved at him). Later Hitler expressed his views about blacks to his War Armament Minister, Albert Speer.

Speer recounted Hitler saying:

Each of the German victories, and there were a surprising number of these, made him happy, but he was highly annoyed by the series of triumphs by the marvelous colored American runner, Jesse Owens. People whose antecedents came from the jungle were primitive, Hitler said with a shrug; their physiques were stronger than those of civilized whites and hence should be excluded from the future games

Then allow no pretense.

You wanna play as a girl?

Then we chop off the parts that identify you as a boy.

Viola! Simple fix.
