    @rancid-schnitzel I wasn't watching, but wasn't it her third attempt in the Snatch? That is what stuff is reporting.

    This might as well be Chinese to me, but based on the official website zhe got 120 for he he snatch after failing her 2nd and 3rd attempts and then got130 for her only clean and jerk attempt. Considering they only take the best result I'm not sure why zhe had to drop out.

    If that's the case then she's got two counting lifts and someone needs to go at least 137 in the C&J or she'll collect the gold.

    Reality of her lifting with the women is that she was in her own competition anyway - her first lift was 7kg more than the best lift of the next best competitor.

    How do you deal with all this if you're a sports administrator?

    I reckon you allow transgender athletes and blade-runners etc to compete with the other athletes, but you have extra medals. e.g. If Laurel wins overall then she gets a gold, but so does the first natural born woman. If she comes second she gets a silver, but so does the person who comes third. If she comes fourth she gets nothing - like everyone else.

    Participation medal. Nice

    Well if she can still do a clean jerk she should be asking for a refund.

    Nope , its only a matter of time till someone gets badly hurt by a tranny in a contact sport. My guess is wrestling or mma.

    @bovidae Agree, and pro women's rugby, even at the current pay, will destroy our national netball team if they aren't careful, as rugby will be more attractive.

    The origin of netball doesn't help either in modern society - netball was invented to be a non-contact, less athletic form of basketball that was suitable for women. Doesn't really play like that any more, but it's a rather limiting factor compared to basketball.

    Already happened in MMA with transgender Fallon Fox.

    Quotes from one of the poor girls that got badly beaten up:

    In a post-fight interview this week, Brents told Whoa TV, “I’ve never felt so overpowered ever in my life.”

    “I’ve fought a lot of women and have never felt the strength that I felt in a fight as I did that night. I can’t answer whether it’s because she was born a man or not, because I’m not a doctor,” she stated. “I can only say, I’ve never felt so overpowered ever in my life, and I am an abnormally strong female in my own right. ”

    Fox’s “grip was different,” Brents added. “I could usually move around in the clinch against…females but couldn’t move at all in Fox’s clinch.”

    Guest Post  /  Jun 10, 2015

    Transgender MMA Fighter Destroys Female Opponent

    Transgender MMA Fighter Destroys Female Opponent

    Fallon Fox, a trans MMA fighter, took down her female opponent and busted her eye socket within the first round.

    And Joe Rogans thoughts:

    I say if you had a dick at one point in time, you also have all the bone structure that comes with having a dick. You have bigger hands, you have bigger shoulder joints. You're a f***ing man. That's a man, OK? You can't have... that's... I don't care if you don't have a dick any more...

    Look, [Fox is] huge! She's not just huge, she's got a f***ing man's face. I mean, you can wear all the lipstick you want. You want to be a woman and you want to take female hormones, you want to get a boob job, that's all fine. I support your life to live, your right to live as a woman.

    Fight guys, yes. She has to fight guys. First of all, she's not really a she. She's a transgender, post-op person. The operation doesn't shave down your bone density. It doesn't change. You look at a man's hands and you look at a women's hands and they're built different. They're just thicker, they're stronger, your wrists are thicker, your elbows are thicker, your joints are thicker. Just the mechanical function of punching, a man can do it much harder than a woman can, period.

    Joelle King has won the first set in the squash final (eventually!) 16-14. Really really close between her and the English chick.

    Tense times at the squash. Joelle King won the first two sets, then lost the third and is down in the fourth.
