Within cycling, the majority of elite women are all for trans racing when the cameras are rolling but the opposite in a private setting.
I agree, if women don’t care (or to pretend to not care) neither do I.

Serious question: has anyone every changed from woman to man and won, let alone competed?

I don't get it. Why hasn't this thread been deleted? The gall some people have to actually complain about testosterone laden men posing as females in women's sports.

Correct. OP was probably confusing the issue by pointing out the stubble (which, in fairness, a real woman might actually have -- not impossible anyway). But this dude is a dude and nothing he does will ever get him out of dudeness. Actually, you accidentally make a great point: people on the right side of gender sanity should cut all rhetoric about how transpeople look and just focus on the ultimate point: they are the gender they were born whether they like it or not.

Her biggest complaint on long stage races is the scrotum-chafing that she occasionally suffers from. Maybe she should apply to be the spokeswoman for some brand of jock itch remedy.

Is it a good thing that biological males are winning so many female events?
Yes. Women's sports are a waste of time for any reason other than looking hot in minimal clothing.

When are we going to be able to admit we had it right in the 50s and everything since has been a complete disaster?

You mean, when 90% of Olympic athletes were men, and women were not allowed to race anything over 200m?

The idea that people who disagree with you are "virtue signalers" is completely bunk. You are outraged and expressing your moral viewpoint here, which pretty much defines "virtue signaling."

The issues will be confused as long as people don’t (or won’t) correctly use the different and nonsynonymous terms “sex” and “gender.”

Or if we admit that one side of this issue purposely likes to confused THAT issue. They usually use "sex" in the "correct" manner but will let "gender" mean whatever is convenient to them in the heat of the point they're making or argument they're having.

What caught my eye was second place: Flavia Oliviera! Blast from my past.
Wouldn't expect many people here to know but Flavia is LEGIT. She's raced in multiple World Championships and was 7th at the 2016 Olympics while representing Brazil. Palmares too long to list.
Crazy times we are living in.

And Oliveira was the overall winner.

That there is a man. Didn't think Letsrun would have a lot of forum users who don't know what a woman is. Guess I was wrong.
