Women are Being Forced Out of Their Own Sports

All the evidence shows that going through male puberty gives men significant physiological advantages over women. Bone density, physical strength, muscle mass, height and lung capacity are all hugely boosted by male puberty. For this reason, most people are able to recognise that allowing biological males to compete in female sport is profoundly unfair. But not the Canadian Powerlifting Union (CPU), it seems.

A few weeks after Hutchinson stated the bleeding obvious about Andres’s participation, she received a stern letter from the CPU. It told her that she could not refer to Andres as a biological male and criticised her for campaigning to keep women’s sport, er, women-only. The CPU is now said to be considering hitting Hutchinson with a two-year suspension. …

This bullying of female athletes has got to stop – both by the men unfairly competing in women’s competitions and by the sports federations who enable them. If we continue to ignore biological reality, and shame the women who are brave enough to speak up for fairness, we risk losing women’s sports for good.
