Thomas asks CAS to halt ban on trans swimmers
Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas has asked a Swiss sports court to overturn rules imposed by World Aquatics that stop her from competing in elite women's races, saying they are discriminatory.
She?I'll give her credit for one thing and one thing only. She made people actually care and discuss women's swimming. Nobody gave a shit about it until they got mad about her.
Quite the take.I'll give her credit for one thing and one thing only. She made people actually care and discuss women's swimming. Nobody gave a shit about it until they got mad about her.
Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.Quite the take.
Any guesses as to why that might be, genius?Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.
I think that's more accurate.Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about some dude who wants to compete in women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.
Because it wasn’t women’s swimming anymore.Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.
I'm solely stating that nobody talked about college swimming until ol Lia. I don't care enough to debate anything that has to do with it. I'll let you bump an old thread and bring it back if you're wanting to do that.Because it wasn’t women’s swimming anymore.
That’s odd, because you sure jumped into the thread quick.I don't care enough to debate anything that has to do with it.
True.Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.
"Hey, hey, hey, hey! I'm not sayin' nothin', except nobody was tawlkin' 'bout college swimmin' until ol' Lia "Swinging my cock 'round the locker room" Thomas started swingin' his cock 'round the ol' locker room.I'm solely stating that nobody talked about college swimming until ol Lia. I don't care enough to debate anything that has to do with it. I'll let you bump an old thread and bring it back if you're wanting to do that.
Fvckin' fruitcakeI don't care enough to debate anything that has to do with it.
Hey sometimes some extreme things have to happen in order for something to get into the limelight!True.
But there weren’t dudes swimming against women either.
Thass me, butt 4 cosplay, yoI got into swimming because Lia Thomas inspired me.
I'll give her credit for one thing and one thing only. She made people actually care and discuss women's swimming. Nobody gave a shit about it until they got mad about her.
Nah. I don't think anybody cares. They just like this debate. I only posted this because I saw it at the top of the ESPN story columnI'll give her credit for one thing and one thing only. She made people actually care and discuss women's swimming. Nobody gave a shit about it until they got mad about her.
"When misguided public opinion honors what is despicable and despises what is honorable, punishes virtue and rewards vice, encourages what is harmful and discourages what is useful, applauds falsehood and smothers truth under indifference or insult, a nation turns its back on progress and can be restored only by the terrible lessons of catastrophe."His name is William Thomas. He’s a dude with male genes and a penis & testicles. I think he is insanely selfish and inconsiderate to compete against women.
There is absolutely nothing brave about deceiving yourself and everyone else for undeserved glory. Just truly shameful.
I don't care enough to debate anything that has to do with it.
Yeah, I wasn’t being serious about her making people care about the sport.Nah. I don't think anybody cares. They just like this debate. I only posted this because I saw it at the top of the ESPN story column
The truth?Just an incredible amount of bigotry in this thread. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Oh and not that you will read this, but here's the truth to all the handwringing you're doing over this.

Do you think that matters? No matter what place she gets she is taking that spot away from someone else unfairly. It doesn't matter one teeny tiny bit that she's not breaking records.Just an incredible amount of bigotry in this thread. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

Well it kinda does since the unfair advantage argument is the justification for her not being able the compete.Do you think that matters? No matter what place she gets she is taking that spot away from someone else unfairly. It doesn't matter one teeny tiny bit that she's not breaking records.
Do you believe biological males have built-in, inherent advantages when it comes to body build and muscle mass when compared to biological females?Well it kinda does since the unfair advantage argument is the justification for her not being able the compete.
But I do give you credit. And least you call her a she. I guess we can disagree with the competition part. But I am happy you call her and her.
And HROT history......Gonna go out on a limb and guess we've had more threads about women's swimming on here over the last couple years than in all of HORT history combined.
Do you have any studies to back this up?Do you believe biological males have built-in, inherent advantages when it comes to body build and muscle mass when compared to biological females?
It's not that hard to be respectful. If you want to be called purple flingbow, then you are purple flingbow to me. It's not clever or helpful or respectful to call her a he.Well it kinda does since the unfair advantage argument is the justification for her not being able the compete.
But I do give you credit. And least you call her a she. I guess we can disagree with the competition part. But I am happy you call her and her.
The “breaking records” thing is such a ridiculous way to look at it. All you have to do is see where she placed against men, and where she placed against women.Do you think that matters? No matter what place she gets she is taking that spot away from someone else unfairly. It doesn't matter one teeny tiny bit that she's not breaking records.
