Kara Grouchy did that at a previous meet, as well. I'd presume it's an NBC editorial decision from their producers.
Heat of the 1500 with Hiltz running was interesting, lots of "she" pronouns used but Hiltz always referred to by her name, no pronouns. Imagine how awkward the commentary would be with pronouns not permitted at all.
*Semifinal not heat.
I completely agree with you. Kara Goucher should NOT have apologized. And if Nikki Hiltz wants people to believe she is no longer female then she should NOT be in the competition.
Nikki Hiltz is FEMALE, whether she wants to be or not. Stfu with all this LBQTBLTWTFOMG nonsense.

Don’t be intimidated by the name calling, those of you who are sane.
what exactly are you protecting future generations from?
leftist insanity is a very broad, subjective thing.
Protecting future generations from severing or excavating perfectly healthy body parts and "treatments" with hormones that suppress one's own sex and flood the body with opposite-sex hormones.

+1.
Good to see the conservatives are still railing against a strawman for pages.
Nobody was upset. Goucher apologized and Hiltz said it was fine.
12 pages of babbling broken brains. The culture war takes no prisoners.

You sound triggered.
Hiltz has a very good shot at making the team.
I had to laugh though in reading LR's summary of the 1500 semis. LR uses the mandated pronouns for Hiltz (they/their). However, her (uh, their) own comment uses singular ("I") rather than the plural ("we"). Is this how it is supposed to work? Or is the phase of the moon involved?

lol. read this thread and tell me conservatives are madposting left and right.
Our society is morphing into more than conservative vs liberal biases. There are conservatives that don't care how people chose to live their lives and there are growing number of liberals who are bent out of shape by the use of self selected pronouns. The same goes for mandated vaccines, corporate controls over citizens, education, etc., etc.
Personally, it's no sweat off my balls if someone wants to be addressed as binary/trans but I am off put by the need to apologize or cancel someone if a stranger gets it wrong. Salem witch hunts come to mind.
I can understand why there are other citizens who kick back when they feel pressured to do something against their sensibilities.
It reminds me of the days of conversion therapy, except we're attempting to mandate that anyone who isn't woke enough be converted via harsh means.
Them goes home DEVASTATED!!
I think they may try to q in the 800. I wonder if they can take more than 1 spot.

Unreal she felt the need to apologize.
It really is. But in today’s “woke” world normal people are supposed to cater to people who mentally ill.

You're joking, right?
Liberals didn't make a fuss for 12 pages. None of us care.
After 12 pages, the angry mob of right wingers on letsrun is still complaining about the angry twitter mob.

Exactly.
Except this liberal democrat ACLU member cares because this force-feeding of the "narrative" is going to eventually force a horrific cultural backlash that will make the current gaslighting, and that's what it is, look pale in comparison. Count on it.

Although I'm coming at this from a diametrically opposed ideological perspective, you are absolutely correct. The pendulum has swung so far to the left that the inevitable correction is going to be brutal. I don't look forward to it.
