This isn’t right. This sucks so hard for the girls who worked hard and trained to be the best they could be in their sport.
They were robbed.
Two transgender girls (AKA two biological boys) at Cromwell High School won big in the high school girls indoor track championships…again.
Yearwood, a 17-year-old junior at Cromwell High School, is one of two transgender high school sprinters in Connecticut, transitioning to female.
She recently finished second in the 55-meter dash at the state open indoor track championships. The winner, Terry Miller of Bloomfield High, is also transgender and set a girls state indoor record of 6.95 seconds. Yearwood finished in 7.01 seconds and the third-place competitor, who is not transgender, finished in 7.23 seconds.
Two boys took the top spots, but we’re not allowed to say anything, because that makes us “transphobic.”
Miller and Yearwood also topped the 100-meter state championships last year, and Miller won the 300 this season.
Biological boys have a physical advantage. I can’t believe that even needs to be said. Gender dysmorphia doesn’t change REALITY. It’s ridiculous that they are allowing biological boys to compete against hard-working girls. It’s unfair. Period.
“I have learned a lot about myself and about other people through this transition. I always try to focus most on all of the positive encouragement that I have received from family, friends and supporters,” Yearwood said. “I use the negativity to fuel myself to run faster.”
Cool. Run faster against the boys.
Yearwood doesn’t seem to think there’s a problem, because some girls are naturally more athletic than other girls, so there!
“One high jumper could be taller and have longer legs than another, but the other could have perfect form, and then do better,” she said. “One sprinter could have parents who spend so much money on personal training for their child, which in turn, would cause that child to run faster.”
Nope. Doesn’t matter. There’s a reason men don’t compete against women and vice versa. Across the board, there’s an undeniable FACT that men possess physical and physiological advantages. We’re even talking about advantages like higher oxygen carrying capacity. Men generally have that. They have a bigger bone structure. More muscle mass. The list goes on and on. Look it up.
Miller’s comment really irritated me.
Miller, who declined to be interviewed for this story, has said that if she felt a competitor had an unfair advantage, it would simply push her to try to improve.
You hear that? The other GIRLS need to get over it and work harder.
What a snobby thing to say.
Congrats, feminists. Look what you did.
