Swimming’s world governing body, Fina, has voted to bar transgender women from elite female competitions if they have experienced any part of male puberty, in a seismic decision that sets it apart from most Olympic sports.
The decision, decided by 71% of the vote of 152 national federations at the world championships in Budapest, followed a report from a Fina scientific panel which found that trans women retained a significant advantage over cisgender female swimmers even after reducing their testosterone levels through medication.
A step in the right direction. The rest of the world will be asking what took them so long. Now all it needs is the rest of the sporting world to catch up.
However this vote means that Thomas will no longer be ab
Good. Lia Thomas is a cheat.
Hope that this is the start of the push-back against the woke garbage.
Problem I have is, it appears far too long before those in “charge” get the message we are not happy about it?

Lia Thomas is a cheat
Yes, and All the M-F trans athletes are cheats as Caitlyn ‘Bruce’ Jenner says too
If I was M-F trans I would not do it, it is morally unfair and I would know I was not the real winner
That’s because you aren’t a raging narcissist unlike most of the vocal TG activists. His ego tells him he’s always the ‘real winner’ in everything.
“cisgener females”? WHAT? That would be real or biological women. Cis and trans belong in chemistry not in the context of human beings. A trans woman is a bloke. XY forever.
“cisgender”………needs an edit button
There is one. You have several minutes to edit before it disappears.
