This transwoman athlete is giving me flashbacks to jokes about Soviet-era West German Woman Olympians. Hannah Mouncey is a 6′ 2″ and male, except that he’s not. He’s a her and she has an obvious advantage in competition.
Another male athlete claiming female “gender identity,” Mouncey made international headlines last fall when he withdrew his professional draft nomination for the women’s Australian Football League because of perceived discrimination, according to The Independent.
Standing 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighing in at approximately 220 pounds, Mouncey, who had competed on the men’s national team for handball in 2016, was crowned a hero by the LGBT community for attacking the AFL’s “Gender Diversity Policy” — a policy he claimed was too restrictive.
A hero?
And as a reminder – this is relevant.
