OK ENOUGH!
You may have been raised to believe women can do whatever men can do & vice versa - it was a reaction to end sexism & inequality - and in many cases that is true - but in others it is 100% NOT TRUE
Yes there are outliers & you can find a woman who is stronger than a man - however that is the exception NOT the rule. #SaveWomensSports
Our biology dictates that men have genetically MORE muscle mass & a different skeletal system, a larger heart, greater lung capacity & higher levels of testosterone - to name a few - that give them a physical advantage before they even try!
Allowing such men to parade around calling themself a "woman"
to knowingly race against woman, who despite years of training can not replicate a male body is THE WORST FORM OF CHEATING to ever have occurred in sport!
Acknowledging nature IS NOT HATEFUL,
it is not regressive or reductive of women to state our physical differences -
What IS reductive is thinking SO little of women in sports that you don't care that a man cheats & steals their opportunity to achieve! #SaveWomensSports

#TodaysHeros WHAT A WOMAN!
Daphne Pearson, was the first woman to win the George Cross
On the night of May 30, 1940, several aircraft had taken off to bomb enemy-held harbours in France.

Bad weather closed in. The four-man crew became fearful they would not find the airfield. As they were crossing the English coast one of the Anson's twin engines began to stutter. Image
A break in the cloud suddenly revealed they were only a few miles from touchdown. But as they began their run-in, the stalled engine burst into flames and the second engine also began to stutter.

Suffragists used visual symbolism to help the public envision a world in which women could participate in the political process.
The Suffragettes made very good use of dress as part of their campaign - Image
They were astute enough to understand the power of clothing to make an immediate impression
Their opposition tried to paint them as frumpy, unattractive, un-feminine women's rights protesters Image

- They also harnessed the concept of uniformity fostering comradeship and belonging within the group. Image
