Transgender University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas was crushed twice in a women's swim meet by another transgender competitor who is transitioning from female to male - first in the 100-yard freestyle, where she placed fifth, and then again in the 400-yard freestyle relay.
Earlier, at the meet where UPenn competed against Dartmouth and Yale, Thomas won the first of four races by just two seconds - one month after she shattered two women's records with a 38-second margin against her closest competitor. She also narrowly won the 500-yard freestyle by just a second, with bystanders telling DailyMail.com that she seemed to be 'coasting' and 'barely trying'.
But stunned parents at the meet gasped as Yale swimmer, Iszac Henig, easily beat out his opponents in the women's 100-yard freestyle, with a time of 49.57 seconds. Thomas, who finished fifth, finished with a time of 52.84 seconds.

The vast majority of people I meet in life think this shit is weird. Though I work almost exclusively with white male engineers.
Gosh that was insanely confusing. I wish writers would start using quotes marks around the names of males pretending to be “females” and females pretending to be “males”. Can’t keep track of the craziness otherwise.
She-wannabe-he beat He-wannabe-she.
Doesn’t cold water come into play here somehow??
No, you aren’t.
Just about all sports are dead to me. Between overpaid crybabies who kneel for national anthem to this latest baffoonery, I’m done.
Same here.
How is this women’s sports? The world isn’t a prison planet, it’s an insane asylum. Beam me up, man.
I’m so confused ?

Is there a proper term from going to female to male ?

What is the term if one starts the trans but then changes their minds and starts the trans back?
There’s a moral somewhere in all this....
:-)
Like the east german women of the 70’s.
Wonder what the coach thinks NOW that he is NOT WINNING!!! Karma
It’s not really our fight so we need to stay out of it. We need to suffer the consequences of supporting liberal policies before we can actually find some sanity.
Too f’ing confusing for me to read past the title.
Shouldn't she/he/it be competing against the men?
"I'm so confused!"
