Biological male competing as female wins two gold medals in women's competition

Transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard — a biological male from New Zealand who won two silver medals in a women's world championship two years ago — took home two gold medals and a silver medal in the recent women's competition at the Pacific Games in Samoa.
Hubbard bested all opponents in the women's +89k snatch — for participants weighing 196 pounds or above — and the overall women's +89k, the Pacific Games site said. Hubbard won silver in the women's +89k clean and jerk, the site also said.
After Hubbard's medals Saturday at Apia's Faleata Sports Complex, the 41-year-old — who's trying to qualify for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics — is now the Oceania senior champion, the Commonwealth senior champion, and the Pacific Games senior champion, Stuff reported.
Mohamed Hosnytaha, coach of the Egyptian national team, wasn't happy about Hubbard competing as a woman, either, after the women's world championship two years ago.
"We didn't agree with it, with somebody who was a man for so long, who has different hormones, different feelings," Hosnytaha told Stuff, adding that the situation "is not fair."

Muslim sounding name cancels out the bigotry.

Since you asked.

United States Women's soccer star player Megan Rapinoe was widely criticized over the weekend after a viral clip showed her autographing a soccer ball for a young fan — yet somehow managing to never make eye contact with the boy.
Video of the incident, which happened at the ESPYs last week, showed a young boy walk up to Rapinoe with a small soccer ball. He hands the ball to Rapinoe, and she autographs it.
However, she never made eye contact with the boy, nor acknowledged him. Instead, she signed the ball while talking to others around her.
By Sunday morning, the 7-second clip had amassed more than 20 million views and generated widespread outrage.
Piers Morgan said Rapinoe's actions proved she is an "arrogant piece of work."
David Dunn, a former professional soccer player, said: "The more I see her the more I dislike her ! The kid should have volleyed it back in her grid!"
"The one kid in America who doesn't think that game sucks and she acts like a stereotypical movie star from an '80s movie in front of him," another person added.
"She's vile. That was disgusting there's people more famous than she will ever be who don't behave like that. Who is she? I don't know her full name and not many will, she's the USA player who won the World Cup," another critic said.
"The window to the soul is observing how someone treats someone powerless who can do absolutely no good for them. She's a piece of s**t. Her actions over the last 3 weeks confirm it. Making eye contact and acknowledgment of a fan costs 0," another person said.

Is she wearing a jacket with nothing under it?
(except her flat 10-year-old boy chest, of course)

Age.
Shim’s 41. Eventually a young woman will beat an old man physically.
