More Good News For Female Athletes

Fairness at last – men should NEVER have been in the women's rowing category

Well done to all the incredible campaigners, who spoke out, highlighted the legal & scientific injustices, waved your banners – you made this policy change happen

Thank you @markxdavies @BritishRowing… https://t.co/50z7AVlgIO pic.twitter.com/O0Dtmfumf8

Kudos to the Brits for recognizing reality of biology! @oliverbrown_tel On my side of the pond @usrowing still blatantly discriminating against females. @icons_women @ICFSport @sharrond62 @Riley_Gaines_ https://t.co/23SubBoY0p

U.S. Rowing still allows ‘transwomen’ (men) to compete in the female category. Also,

This surfing mum on the left was pushed out of her place on the podium by a male. Really gets me because the ability to grow human life is the reason women's bodies sacrifice caloric expenditure on athletic capacity. No TW will ever go thru that. pic.twitter.com/OZICB84kUt

Preferred Pronouns Are A Slippery Slope

Costa Coffee Conundrum

"[N]o girl or woman should be encouraged to see such a radical procedure as normal or fun. Every procedure carries risk, this one is complex, dangerous and irreversible."

Well said. https://t.co/Rlf4wUuo3T

Can you imagine the corporate culture in which this gets signed off?

Someone thinks it is a good idea and then every level of management that might be expected to say "no" waves it through because they are terrified of the "transphobia" finger pointing at them. https://t.co/uusyGxYXPT

They have stores in some of our largest metro areas. And it is the biggest coffee chain in Britain. Do what you think is appropriate.
