Transgender weightlifter wins international womens competition, sets national record

New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard has won an international powerlifting competition, raising questions about her participation and the new International Olympic Committee policy on transgender athletes.
Hubbard won the over-90kg division at the Australian International in Melbourne, lifting a combined total of 268kg, according to the New Zealand Herald. In doing so she set new national records in the snatch and clean and jerk, according to 1 News Now.
Before her transition, Hubbard competed in powerlifting as a man. Now a woman, she wants to continue to compete as her gender.
All of this has riled up some folks who see it as uneven playing fields. Garry Marshall, the president of Olympic Weightlifting New Zealand, said his governing body is simply applying the rules set forth by the IOC. Those rules allow Hubbard to compete as a woman after undergoing certain transitional steps.
With Hubbards eyes on bigger prizes, and the next Summer Olympic Games now three years away, this issue isnt going away anytime soon.

LOL reap what you sow. She is kicking their asses and there's nothing they can do. If she is a she, then she can compete. To say otherwise is discriminatory.
Men are so superior we even won woman of the year.

Up until this point, men have been the ones calling this lunacy what it is. But sooner or later women will join us because they will learn first hand what this means. Men competing as women? Just lol. What's next? Women's government grants, small business loans, scholarships etc. Trannies are coming in dry, and retarded SJW's are going to give them all your ****. Have fun, ladies LOL.

as someone who competes, setting records or winning is competitive as hell, for both male/female, training and peak to competition can be great, but come competition day... things change very fast cause the nature of the lifts, the most small technical error, mental, sleep, timing, speed, etc... not to mention not 100% knowing what numbers you may have to lift that day because of other competitors
it's very rare to see someone come into a competition and blow everyone else's numbers away unless they're competing in a very small or local meet... but being transgender, he doesn't have to worry about any of the above at all, of course he still has to train hard since the girls can snatch/c&j/squat than most guys who don't oly lift, given he takes training seriously, he can have a 'bad' day and his numbers are still gonna be better than the girls who bust their ass 365/7... and he's at 90kg+
absolute pissening if they allow that chit in the olympics... it's the ultimate dream in weightlifting and extremely competitive regardless of juicing
even if it's not 'fair' for the transgender community, they need to change guidelines for being 'women' in sports, this a consequence transgender should face as making their choice, if no change happens, i see a new trend for sports happening in the near future....
edit: forgot to mention, in weighlifting, females use a 'womens bar' which the diameter is smaller so they can hook grip better, no male is allowed to use it regardless of hand size, this clown having man hands using a 'womens bar' is just lol

[A prominent sportswriter, Phil Gifford, meanwhile, defended Hubbard, saying the athlete had every right to compete in the women’s category after passing hormone regulations. "It’s testosterone levels which is a much more scientific way of measuring male gender, female gender than anything else that is currently known. And Lauren has passed all of those tests over the last 12 months,” he told a New Zealand news program.]
so this athete has to get drug tested to make sure he's on drugs? that's what they doing now?
fk this gay earth.

People still embracing this mental illness/genetic abnormality? Wake me up when this BS is over. You're a fuking man, that's a scientific fact. It's hilarious seeing people in public/t.v so reluctant to even joke about transgender. Spineless PC society, and sadly the countries that would call this nonsense out straight away are usually all the way on the other end of tolerance.

I am telling you now guys this is the next big thing.
If you are highly athletic just say you're a woman and start dominating womens sports for the $$$$.
There are going to hundreds of guys who aren't good enough to hit the male elite tier but still dominate women. If I was a male tennis player ranked 600th in the world I would just say I was a woman and be #1 and win the same prize money as men for less work! (3 sets instead of 5 in majors)

I think there's a window of opportunity and then this kind of thing will get shut down, simply because men are so dominant in sports compared to women. And of course, ridiculously so in strength sports.
