I just bought a plane ticket. Why did it ask for my gender? I can understand it asking for my weight maybe or possibly sex, but gender should be like religion - none of your business.
The record is not Hiltz's personal record or what she identifies as but for American women. Changing the description of the event - which is for women and includes women - out of deference to how she chooses to describe herself is misplaced. It doesn't respect the women who choose to compete in the event, which is a "women's" event and not a non-binary or any other event.
Are there any actual women upset by this or just dudes on letsrun
Women don't get upset about a factually accurate tweet with no ill-will associated with it - that's a LR bro thing.
Citius Magazine is Nike's fake rag of volunteer NYC fan bois or so I hear. It's being shut down soon. Also Runnerspace, Flotrack, and other fan boys could be next. Nike is adopting supposedly Adobe AI Firefly image and 3-D video which is the rage now.
Tell me one person who knew who held the indoor 1000 meter record before the meet. You are being completely disingenuous.
You said a factually accurate thread is somehow inaccurate, the OP cried about it, and I am the one being disingenuous? Why does it matter who knew who held the indoor 1000m record before the meet?
Not sure if it's been posted but here are the details on Hiltz's time via RRW:
NOTE: The big highlight here was Nikki Hiltz running 2:34.09 for 1000m, the #4 USA mark of all-time (combining indoor and outdoor lists). Hiltz's time was also faster than Jen Toomey's USA indoor record of 2:34.19 set in Birmingham, Alabama, back in 2004, but Toomey's mark was set on a standard 200m track while Hiltz ran on a 307m track here --Ed.

Ask for sex or just my name, but no gender.
Obviously the aeroplane will fly differently depending on what gender you are.
