A British rapper briefly identified as female in order to break a weightlifting record and prove a point about transgender athletes.
“I keep hearing about how biological men don’t have any physical strength advantage over women in 2019… So watch me DESTROY the British Women’s deadlift record without trying. P.S. I identified as a woman whilst lifting the weight. Don’t be a bigot,” Zuby Tweeted, attaching a video of himself breaking the record.
Much ado has been made recently about transgender females competing in women’s athletic events.
Two high school sophomores, both transgender females, placed first and second respectively in the 100-meter race at the Connecticut State Finals, causing outrage among biologically female competitors and their families. Both transgender athletes said that the biological females should “work harder” instead of complaining.
Tennis star Martina Navratilova recently apologized for comparing transgender female athletes competing in female events to “cheating.”
“A man can decide to be female, take hormones if required by whatever sporting organization is concerned, win everything in sight and perhaps earn a small fortune, and then reverse his decision and go back to making babies if he so desires,” she originally said. “It’s insane and it’s cheating. I am happy to address a transgender woman in whatever form she prefers, but I would not be happy to compete against her. It would not be fair.”
Zuby said that he only identifies as female while weightlifting. Given the new leftist rules on gender identity, one would suspect that Zuby has returned to identifying as male now that he has broken the records.
