    What is actually funny is that Andres (right) mocked women for being "so bad'" at bench pressing right after breaking the women's record

      So a man pretending to be a woman is upset that another man pretending to be a woman broke his weightlifting record.

      But really, the league was asking for it since their rule is that if a dude says he's a dudette, then they can't challenge it or dispute it. They just have to take him at his word and let him compete.

        It's more a male who is super serious about pretending to be a female is upset that a male who isn't serious about being a woman broke his record. If being "transgender" were coherent, a mere declaration of being a woman would be sufficient. There would be no need for HRT or SRS. Therein lies the beauty of the mockery.

          Riley Gaines 'ambushed and physically hit' after Saving Women's Sports speech at San Francisco State

          Riley Gaines was barricaded in a room on the 3rd floor of a university building for nearly three hours after the protests began

          Former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines was barricaded in a room at San Francisco State University Thursday night after she was physically assaulted following a speech to students about saving women's sports at a Turning Point USA and Leadership Institute event on the campus.

          Louis Barker, Riley's husband, said he had brief conversations with her while she was barricaded in the room for nearly three hours.

          "She told me she was hit multiple times by a guy in a dress. I was shaking. It made me that mad. It makes me sick to feel so helpless about it," Barker said. "She was under police protection and was still hit by a man wearing a dress."

            I just appreciate the fact that she's now whining after she herself went out of her way to mock actual women athletes as being "so bad."

                  I tend to think that the right will bitterly contest the cultural issue over the next 10 years or so, will initially have some victories but then gradually lose on it as they always do when they take their positions on the wrong side of morality and history, spend the next 10 years or so being bitter about losing on the issue and continue to try to use it as a dog-whistle to activate voters, and finally will gradually forget about it as they move onto whatever new issue they invent in their immoral culture wars. So they'll probably eventually drop it, and regroup behind the issues of how much they hate Blacks and Latinos.

                  They might drop it sooner if elections continue to indicate it's not a vote-winner for them. Last election they went all out with anti-trans messaging in Michigan, and Dems picked up a trifecta of state control there. If that repeats, the conservatives might largely give up on the issue. Although it currently seems to attract the most conservative interest/$$$ online (e.g. Ben Shapiro has said his numbers go way up when he makes anti-trans content), so there is at least a minority of conservatives who seem to strongly like to hear anti-trans messaging over and over, so it's possible it will stay circulating in the far-right conservative echo chamber even if politicians find they have to avoid the subject to win votes.

                      So preventing men from dominate women's sports is the wrong side of history? Altering children with radical surgeries and puberty blockers is the wrong side of history? And though it took 50+ years the right won, probably, their single most important issue. They got Roe over turned. And please you have no basis for judging what is on the wrong side of morality or not.

                        I just learned that an old high-school friend of mine is trans now. I guess he (now she) had a sex change operation(?) somewhere along the way. What's weird is he had this huge crush on actress Donna Mills when we were kids, posted pics of her all over his walls. Maybe he figured since he couldn't have her that he might as well give up.

                          Just like in Europe, which seems to be putting the brakes on the trans train -- at least with respects to children -- we are starting to see more signs that the country is starting to awaken to the insanity. I believe this period will be looked back on and cause a lot of head scratching. For the next few decades, a number of various scientists will make careers analyzing all of this trying to determine how such a thing ever arose.

                          Most Americans, including conservatives, aren't overly concerned with trans until some of them started coming for the children. Before this grooming movement took off, who payed them any attention? I mean who was calling for the closing of gay bars and drag shows? Drag queens will always be with us, but they'll go back to being entertainment for adults, which is appropriate.

                          As for your laughable line about hating blacks and Hispanics, especially considering who the left placed in the White House and his nakedly racist views, once again the left accuses others of what they get caught doing. Hispanics in particular are waking up to which side sees them as nothing more than peons to be exploited -- a situation they thought they left back home.

                              Exactly, go back 5-7 years who gave a rip what drag queens were doing!

                                No, he apparently has a boyfriend. Then again, I am just getting info from afar. It's why I don't have Facebook or Instagram or any of that, because I don't want to communicate with people from my past.

                                Unless they're rich and generous.
