  1. Should create 2 additional category for transgender

  2. He is a man, swimming with the long thick muscular arms and legs of a man, with a man's large heart and lungs, and he could father a child with his sperm and his male appendage today. Why aren't the so called feminists angry that men are putting on women's clothes and destroying what women have sacrificed and worked so hard for? Feminists are hypocrites, liars and cowards just like William. When SCOTUS' don't know what a woman is and Bruce Jenner and Rachel Levine are named women of the year; this world has been handed over to Satan by the Marxists Satanists NWO liberals and democracy is over.

  3. those shoulders bruh

  4. That’s a man….it’s not an attack on the trans community when people state the fact that HE IS A MAN who wishes to live as a women…HUGE difference but so hard for the nuts to understand.

  5. That’s a dude wearing woman’s swim bathing suit. Will cheer when HE is brought down.

  6. I totally support Trans-people's rights but this shouldn't be allowed at any level in sports.

  7. This should not be a debate she is a he nuff said.

  8. Never seen a woman built like that man all the way a hard side without the hard

  9. There is nothing to debate. She is a man.

  10. That’s a man sir

  11. says it all when the news reader says assigned at birth ffs

  12. Man beats women. Who´d have guessed that would happen. This is cheating, period.

  13. How do we know that Thomas is faking being a trans girl just to win ???

  14. It's funny that the transgender man, that is a woman that is transitioning into a man still wants to compete with the women 🤣 cheat

  15. Y’all are the issue. She literally won by 1 second. She beat 5th place by 5 seconds. It is not domination. Please. The amount of transphobia online lately is so dangerous. Tons of trans* women will be targeted bc of the sensationalism on this

  16. What happened to this country's moral compass? A man is a man and a woman is a woman. Why is the science of this being ignored and/or denied? Gender isn't how you feel… it's what you manifest chromosomally.
