Former Olympic swimmer says her spot was taken by transgender swimmer

Gyorgy notes that she "respect[s] and fully stand[s] with Lia Thomas" and believes that Thomas "is no different than me or any other D1 swimmer who has woken up at 5 AM her entire life for morning practice." She notes that Thomas has been equally as competitive and likely put as much effort into her work as anyone else there at the event. However, she still took issue with the NCAA's decision to allow Thomas to compete in a women's sporting event.
"I know you could say I had the opportunity to swim faster and make the top 16," Gyorgy said. "But this situation makes it a bit different, and I can't help but be angry or sad."
Gyorgy then argued that "every event that transgender athletes competed in was one spot taken away from biological females throughout the meet.
Impossible choice meme come to life

These women need to stop sugarcoating their comments and call a spade a spade, or in this case a dick a dick.

It is so wrong to allow trans to compete against women.
If they don’t want to compete against men then they should have their own competition.

What’s going to happen when a trans makes say the USWNT after they’ve come out and publicly stated they support trans
Will they throw a fit because their spot is taken? Will they say oh well thems the breaks?
I know Semenya has to be thinking WTF.

For sure. First it's swimming. Wait till the next John Wall doesn't want to play against guys and starts averaging 70 points a game for UCONN WBB.

No different, other than the frank and beans in the skivvies, which has a little more testosterone than your skivvies. But keep proving that men are superior.
