Yet another one of these.
“Tiffany Newell” new Canadian Record in Masters Women Indoor 5000m run for the age group 45-49. More than a stolen award from women athletes, this is a record that's been ratified because “Tiffany” apparently has “met all the World Athletics requirements to compete as a woman” pic.twitter.com/aCUCi7NPpr — Amy E.

“Tiffany” of course is not a woman.
This is Paula James, who held the Canadian F45 record before Newell. https://t.co/e76VOAshaa pic.twitter.com/AHSgaUWszH — Emma Hilton (@FondOfBeetles) December 31, 2022

Sucks for Paula James, doesn’t it.
We know that female athletes lose performance between the ages of 45-55. We know that this is the effect of peri/menopause. I know how hard it can be to try and manage tiredness, erratic biology, anxiety, soreness. To have to battle with the weights to protect your bones. — Emma Hilton (@FondOfBeetles) December 31, 2022

When the IOC first said it was OK for males to compete in female sport, they justified it by saying it was only recreational/Masters categories likely to be impacted. Because to them, women like Paula James are collateral damage. — Emma Hilton (@FondOfBeetles) December 31, 2022

Agree 100%. I am 49. Life, never mind running fast, is hard for females in this age group. I am also the British marathon record-holder for 35-40 age group. If a male stole this record from me, I swear I cannot put into words how my blood would boil with fury. — Mara Yamauchi (@mara_yamauchi) January 1, 2023

How are these cheating men so devoid of shame? And why aren’t more decent men calling them out?
Sigh.
