Thank you for this article, Shannon. And for further example(s), see: https://www.thedistancemag.com/p/men-sweep-both-male-and-female-categories .

BTW, I loved the title of McKinnon's Ph.D. thesis. That's one I'll have to record in my notes.

Edit: Here's that 2012 thesis, for anyone who'd like to check it out: https://uwspace.uwaterloo.ca/handle/10012/6619 .

Thank you for this, and good for woman swimmer Riley Gaines for speaking up!! I googled her and found she's described as a "right wing activist" for her views on biological sex. Believing men are not women makes you right wing now?! Women in Scotland and the UK are leading the charge against this nonsense and none too soon. Courage.
