Always the plan
Another Lia Thomas looms into view.
Top women cyclists who have helped Great Britain to historic triumphs face losing their team places after a trans woman announced she would now compete in female events.
Emily Bridges has continued to race against men for the past year while undergoing hormone therapy, and her successes include a gold medal at the recent University Championships in Nottingham.
However, her testosterone levels are now low enough to meet the criteria set out by British Cycling, the sport’s governing body, for her to compete against women.
So he’ll be guaranteed to win everything in sight! Progress!
The 21-year-old recently spoke candidly about her transition and revealed it was ‘always the plan’ to compete in women’s events.
‘After starting hormone therapy I didn’t want to race in the male category any more than I had to,’ she told Cycling Weekly magazine.
And of course what he wants is all that matters. What those stupid women in the female category might want is of no importance at all – they’re mere fodder for his ambitions.
Team GB’s women cyclists, including Laura Kenny, the country’s most successful female Olympian ever, have enjoyed unparalleled success in recent years, including five gold medals at the last three Games.
Blah blah blah. She’s not stunning and brave, she’s just some woman.
What’s this about TERF Island again?
