Swimming World Cup Does Away with Open Category for Trans Swimmers After No One Enters
Breitbart News ^ | 2023 10 03 | Dylan Gwinn

The Swimming World Cup has decided to scrap its plans to host an open-category event for transgender swimmers after no one signed up for it.

The event was to serve as a compromise after World Aquatice voted to ban male swimmers from competing in elite female events in 2022. The plan was to offer trans competitors the ability to compete against other trans swimmers in the 50m and 100m events across all strokes.

However, with the Swimming World Cup only three days away, it appears there are no takers.

The trannies don’t want to play if they can’t beat the girls.

They are trying to force their way into the women’s categories, hence the declines.

Guess the demented perverts only wanted to beat up on women. Some sick, sick puppies. But we knew that already, this just confirms it.

Obviously the reason no one entered was because of transphobia.

By dropping the category, the Swimming World Cup is giving into transphobic fascism, and thereby stating that they agree with it.

“Swimming World Cup Does Away with Open Category for Trans Swimmers After No One Enters”

Leftist Response: “Well, they don’t want to be stigmatized by entering a Trans category.”

I wonder if they’ll ever have a separate figure skating competition for Heterosexual males.

This is a big issue for me. 3 daughters, 3 champ swimmers. Years and years of hard work & practice to get there [and many hours/days/weekends on the pool deck and emptying wallet for old Dad].

I feel so much for those girls who have been shoved aside by the lefties without a care or thought of their sacrifices, hopes and dreams. Instead, they give the accolades, awards and scholarships to chicks with dicks who couldn’t win so they cheated to swim against the ladies. FU feminists. You are traitors. I’m the real feminist. I actually care about girls and women, support their endeavors, and am wowed by their achievements. You dropped these women as soon as you could. FU. FU again, can’t say it enough.

Not just to beat the girls but also to share areas that girls shouldn’t have to share with perverts.

The trannies didn’t want to actually compete in a category where they had to actually compete.

This is exactly how you take this BS out. Give them a league of their own. Same with the cheer leaders ect.

If that don’t beat all. I guess it’s no fun to compete on an equal playing field with competitors of equal advantage.
