First transgender athlete June Eastwood to compete in women’s DI XC this fall, has pbs of 1:55/3:50/14:38

You are 100% correct.

In fact, it’s clear that he “threw” the race to pick up 7th. Now, he’s hoping people who don’t know any better will day, “I guess it is fair.” He’s only trying to advance the cause.

Case in point: Look at the comments of the Liberal tool “Truth Matters” below the article:

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/08/after-losing-on-mens-team-for-3-years-biological-male-runner-will-now-compete-against-women-in-ncaa-race-as-transgender/#comment-4600779766

This tool couldn’t wait to do the very thing we knew would happen.

Only once women refuse to compete against men will this stop.

Biological males are now destroying females in virtually every sport, breaking world records & humiliating the best female athletes on earth. This is a deranged exercise in forcing a falsehood upon the innocent masses. The sad thing is that there have been young ladies who have worked very hard at their sports and ended up missing out on scholarships because they came in third in races behind two guys. It's just sick.

Stop the madness.

These are all dudes. End of story.

I believe that graphic is in error: the picture on the top right shows Texas HS girls's wrestling champ Mack Beggs, a biological female who IDs as male and for several years now has been injecting high levels of T to more closely resemble a biological male physically.

To the young athlete's credit, Beggs tried to compete in boys' HS wrestling, but Texas rules say students must compete in the sex category shown on their birth certificates. However, the sameTexas rules allowed Beggs to compete in the female category while taking exogenous T to bring T levels into the male range on the theory that since the T was prescribed by a licensed physician for purposes other than performance enhancement, the T in this case did not count as a PED.

Beggs graduated from HS in 2018, and is now an undergrad at Life University in Georgia, where Beggs is now on the male wrestling squad roster. But Beggs has not yet competed as a college-level male, because since having a double mastectomy in the summer of 2018, Beggs has found the recovery to be more difficult than anticipated, partly because the surgery injured the pectoral muscles. Young people today breezily call MtF double mastectomy "top surgery" as if it's no big deal, but some are finding this major surgery to be much more traumatic and difficult to bounce back from than they were led to believe.

While still in HS, Beggs reported receiving a scholarship offer from a DI uni/college, and press accounts at the time assumed the school was in the NCAA. However, Life University is a DI school in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), not the NCAA. In any event, Beggs never revealed which school offered the DI scholarship or how much it was worth.

When Beggs was trouncing all female competitors in Texas HS wrestling, some female athletes and their families spoke out, saying it's unfair to allow a female pumped up on high levels of T to wrestle girls not on PEDs. Some in the stands booed Beggs, characterized Beggs as a cheat, and used other unkind descriptors that struck some as offensive and uncalled for. In the MSM and on social media, those who objected even in mild and fair terminology were castigated as transphobes, haters and bigots intent on persecuting Beggs for simply wanting to be true to Beggs' "authentic" inner self "as the man he really is."

As is the case with CT HS sprint champs Andraya Yearwood and Terry Miller, Beggs has been hailed as a trailblazing human rights activist, received numerous awards as a result, been lionized by the press, and been the subject of a flattering documentary.

Like Yearwood and Miller, Beggs is also backed and advised by a number of powerful organizations, such as the ACLU, the Human Rights Campaign and Athlete Ally. Earlier this year, Athlete Ally denounced and kicked out tennis champ Martina Navratilova, one of its cofounders, for objecting to males who identify as female being allowed to compete girls and women's sports, and for believing that sports governing authorities should not permit females jacked up on T to compete against females who aren't doping - positions that Navratilova's longtime friend and coach Renee Richards and many other "old school" transsexuals heartily agree with.

In January 2019, Beggs obtained a new birth certificate stating that Beggs' natal sex is male.

Who are the transgender females who are humiliating women in virtually every sport? No TF has gotten anywhere near a world record. June running 5:50 pace for 4K wasn't a blow to women's sports. There is one TF running distance in the NCAA this year and she only has one year eligibility. By next year, the number of TG distance runners in the NCAA will return to the historical average of none,

Who is this female athlete that finished 3rd and didn't receive a scholarship? You're just making things up.

Hey man. Recycle old newspapers and soda bottles not classless jokes. Maybe cleverly funny the first time but now that we are 8-9 times in to the same joke...

Unfortunately you are leading with your chin on this one.

Identifying as something they are not, did help Elizabeth Warren in her schooling and career.

As For June Eastwood REGARDLESS of how he did in the race, he still should not get to compete against REAL Females.

I am not a Psychologist/psychiatrist, but wouldn't it be better if these people who are not happy with who/what they are to see a Therapist and find out the reason for their self hate? And Help them be Happy with who/what they really are? There was a song by Teddy Pendergrass/Harold Melvin and the Bluenotes, And Whitney Houston had a famous rendition of the song, Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all, It does bother me that men are stealing Sport awards from Real Females like the 2 Boys who went 1-2 in the Connecticut State meet The Division 2 400 Hurdler CeCe Tefler and Eastwood, but after I get past being mad, it is also sad that they hate who they really are.

On a kind of related note, 2 men were convicted of pretending to be military heroes, though they were never in a war or the military, I think The term was stolen valor and the judge fined them and had them do community service, If everyone is allowed to Just Identify as whatever they want to be, How can they be Convicted? Maybe they Identify as war Heroes, Heck I bet there is Thousands of posters who would like to be The World Record Holder in The Marathon (Not Including the REAL World Record Holder Eliud Kipchoge for Men and Paula Radcliffe for Women) what if they Identify as The World Record Holders, Wouldn't it be UNFAIR to Kipchoge and Radcliffe, the ones who really are, They did all the Work and someone who did NOT, but identifies as World Record Holder, gets to claim the same accomplishment?

Such BS:

"June had a decision to make: quit running or compete on the women's team."

Bald-faced LIE. I don't care if you want to transgender (after age 18), but don't LIE in the process to force acceptance.

His mom's tear's tell the real story here.

In time, all significant double standards shoot themselves in the foot and die off. Why? Because humans are stupid, but as a whole, we’re not THAT stupid. Survival demands a respectable amount of efficiency. Double standards by nature are laughably inefficient.

In a few decades, transgenderism in sport will be comical, much like hippy culture from the 60s is today.

Well June just competed in her first college 6k. She took second overall, with a 20:18. That would be equivalent to 16s in the 5k. Afterward, the coach was interviewed and said “June took it out hard.” He went on to say that it was a pace Bea had never experienced. So June is now pushing the runner who was beating her earlier to paces she has never experienced. Frizzell was 20:33, right on the cusp of 16s, but the gap between the two has continued to widen all season.
