Report: All-Ladies Pool Makes Decision On Transgender Swimmers
The Spun ^ | March 6, 2024 | Andrew Holleran

A historical all-ladies swimming pond has held a vote to make a decision on whether to be inclusive to transgender women.

Hampstead Health's all-ladies swimming pond has been around for decades and it's remained a popular spot for women looking to cool off.

This week, a committee voted on a policy that would've rejected transgender women. The committee voted against the policy, meaning the pond will be inclusive to transgender swimmers.

The pond, which opened in 1926, is located in North London. It's one of England's biggest open-air swimming spots.

A "large majority" of the pond's members were in favor of being inclusive to transgender swimmers.

“The Ladies’ Pond is a space for women and girls. For some years the KLPA – a user group representing the interests of swimmers at the pond – has been committed to helping create and maintain an inclusive environment for all women, including transgender women,” a spokesperson for the group told PinkNews.

“In line with this policy, all women, including transgender women, are welcome to join the KLPA.”

Bet there'll be a noticeable drop in membership soon.

People who tolerate perverted schizophrenics in their midst deserve the consequences.

They did it primarily because they are afraid of the British government closing their pool and bringing charges against the committee. Pragmaticism takes priority.

I wonder how they’ll define transgender. How will they enforce the policy? What if a man claims to be a woman only on M-W-F and the only feminine thing he does is wear a bikini? What possible criteria could they develop that allows for “gender fluidity” but prevents that kind of obvious ruse?

Such morons! Actually, I apologize to all morons out there. You’re far smarter than they are!

Men who say they’re women are men with a delusion. Nothing to do with inclusivity.

AND they are mentally ill -- seriously mentally ill -- from the powerful drugs they consume. AND they are potentially dangerous to any normal person who doesn't pander to their illness or participate in and even celebrate their delusions.

Hopefully the anything-but=woke members of this pool club will learn from the hard lesson they are about to receive. Reality can be a real bitch sometimes.

If they're smart, they'll allow only the crazies who've gone all the way through the process and are now "post-surgical gender reassignment", or whatever the NHS calls it over there.

A "No More Penis" letter from the NHS would probably be a wise requirement as well. Otherwise, the path is clear for non-trans XY males to sue the club and crush what little remains of the "Ladies" identity - as they absolutely should.

Good choice! Didn’t the Murray character really like leering at the older women, in that movie?

So men who know they are men aren’t allowed, but men pretending to be women are.

Idiots......
