Now we can finally compete with the East Germans !!!   This is seriously going to destroy the women's side of the Olympics if this spreads to other events.

I personally like Binary.  The numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 are so overrated.

This person was female at birth and went through female puberty. Therefore per current rules this person can compete against other females in the Olympic track events. This person does not identify as male but as nonbinary they/them.  This person might be taking a small amount of certain male hormones, we don't know, but I think they removed all rules about hormones after it became clear that some athletes have wildly outlying levels of sex hormones even though they aren't taking supplements.  Keep in mind that anabolic steroids are not the same as natural sex hormones and athletes are still banned if they test positive for anabolics.

She's quoted in the article as using "me/I" pronouns regarding themself.  Shouldn't they be using "us/we" to stay logically consistent?

From the article

The International Olympic Committee updated its rules regarding transgender athletes in 2021 to defer to each sport’s governing body.

Hey, what is your problem?
I changed my sex to female in my recruiting process as well, just for the quota.
When I got hired I changed back to male just for better salary.
You'd have to take advantage...

Seriously, this gets out of control, not only in the US Confused

This woke Garbage has spread all over Europe. Atleast it's not a dude going into a Woman''s Sport this Time. It's insane to me that Women fought to have their own leagues and now many Support Men dressed up taking it back from them. Crazy

Would 'they' be offended if someone used 'it' as a reference pronoun? Asking seriously because I encountered this over the weekend at a Loop restaurant here in JVille.

Honest question, did you care?
