Biological Male Sets World Record For Women’s Cycling
Daily Caller ^ | October 20, 2019 | PETER HASSON

Posted on 10/21/2019 8:55:29 AM PDT by lowbridge

Biologically male cyclist Rachel McKinnon won a women’s world championship Saturday.

McKinnon, representing Canada, won goldfor the sprint event in the women’s 35-39 age category at the 2019 Masters Track Cycling World Championships in Manchester, England.

McKinnon set a women’s world record in the qualifying event, the BBC reported. McKinnon, a philosophy professor at the College of Charleston, won the same event in 2018.

McKinnon told Sky News in an interview that aired Friday that it would be unfair if the cyclist was kept out of women’s events.

“So, if we want to say, that I believe you’re a woman for all of society, except for this massive central part that is sport, then that’s not fair,” McKinnon said.

McKinnon said in a tweet Sunday that a “real champion” would accept biologically male athletes competing in female athletics.

“I have yet to meet a real champion who has a problem with trans women. Real champions want stronger competition,” McKinnon wrote. “If you win because bigotry got your competition banned … you’re a loser.”

So the only reason not to have biological males compete against women is bigotry. Okay.......

There you have it, the liberal view is that any concerns about transsexuals in sports is due to bigotry. End of discussion per the liberals.

The ‘woke snake’ is trying to swallow its own tail.

Perhaps it is time for a Y chromosome free cycling competition.

Can I self identify as the winner of the race even though I didn’t compete?

That would be a natural step FORWARD in a community reorganizing effort.

Well feminists, I guess it proves that men are better than women even at being women!

I wonder what the Left has to say?

What is insane passes for normalcy — that is the insane times we’re in. Men calling themselves a woman wins a woman competition. This would have been comedy back in the time of Bob Hope. Now it’s just standard news.

I am so disgusted by all of this I could throw up. If I had trained my entire life and reached the elite level of my sport, only to lose to a guy with a wig, I would be livid. I honestly feel sorry for the women who are paying the price for this absurd social experiment.

That said, it is going to be fun watching 2 of the left's "victim" groups: women and transgender go at each other.

It’s up to the real female athletes to stop this insanity.

McKinnon, representing Canada,

Canada is the home of PC, post-modernist fascism. Not surprised.

Let’s say that an 18-year-old person self-identifies as a 36-year-old person. Would this person be allowed to compete in the race? Based on how crazy the original story is, I don’t see why not.
