The national governing body of cycling in the UK has announced a ban on transgender competitors taking part in women’s races in the country.

British Cycling says that the ban will come into effect by the end of the year, with a new separate ‘open category’ being introduced that anyone of any gender can compete in.

Chief Jon Dutton told reporters “We have taken a view that this is absolutely about being inclusive for all,” adding “We’ve created a new open category that anyone has the ability to ride in and also a non-competitive policy that is absolutely inclusive and accessible.”

“We will not tolerate any form of discrimination in moving forward with this policy,” Dutton added, further noting “it’s really important that we support, we empathise, we are compassionate to the riders that are affected by this policy change.”

The move comes following several trans cyclists dominating women’s events in recent months.

After biological male Austin Killips, won the women’s category of the Tour of the Gila bicycle race in New Mexico earlier this month, the world cycling governing body Union Cycliste Internationale defended its transgender policy, stating “The UCI acknowledges that transgender athletes may wish to compete in accordance with their gender identity,” and adding “The UCI rules are based on the latest scientific knowledge and have been applied in a consistent manner.”

Commenting on the move by British Cycling, trans competitor Emily Bridges called it a “violent act” and “furthering a genocide” against trans people:

Bridges has drawn criticism after setting records in men’s cycling before coming out as a transgender woman in October 2020 and beginning to compete in women’s events.

As we have documented (see links below), other sports have placed bans on trans competitors in women’s events, with legendary sportswomen including Martina Navratilova and Sharron Davies speaking out in support.

Navratilova and Davies both responded to today’s news:

    The U.S. Air Force has received backlash after tweeting out an image showing a soldier saluting a LGBTQ+ flag to ‘Celebrate Pride Month‘.

    The image shows a silhouetted individual throwing up a salute along with the rainbow, black and brown and trans colours and the Air Force seal.

    The gender of the individual isn’t clear, but it is clearly a depiction of a uniformed service member.

    The caption reads “June is #PrideMonth! The Department of the Air Force proudly recognizes and celebrates generations of LGBTQI+ service members and their contributions to our #AirForce & #SpaceForce.”

    The Air Force Global Strike Command responded to the tweet, writing, “Our diversity is our competitive advantage.”

    Cringe.

    You Won’t Believe What They’re Doing Now

    The children are the drag queens.

    Published

    on

    A school in the UK is celebrating ‘Pride Month’ by encouraging children as young as 11 to dress up in “full blown drag”.

    Forget just exposing them to what is inherently sexualized in nature, they’re now literally making the kids the drag queens.

    Oxfam Apologises For Evil Cartoon ‘TERF’ That Resembles JK Rowling

    Now everyone is slamming the charity

    Anti-poverty charity Oxfam has issued an apology over a cartoon it produced featuring a bunch of evil eyed ‘transphobic’ characters hating on the LGBTQ+ lifestyle, with one wearing a button labelled ‘TERF’ and very much resembling author JK Rowling.

    The charity edited the video and deleted the original after complaints over the term TERF (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist) being offensive to women’s rights activists.

    Oxfam’s statement noted  “In efforts to make an important point about the real harm caused by transphobia, we made a mistake. We have therefore edited the video to remove the term ‘terf’ and we are sorry for the offence it caused.”

    Here’s the video in question, which was released to mark ‘Pride’ month, just as seemingly every other organisation and company in the world now feels compelled to do, even if they have nothing to do with Pride or LGBTQ+ lifestyles.

    Those who caught the original before it was deleted noted how the ‘TERF’ starkly resembled JK Rowling:

    Oxfam has denied that the character was meant to depict the Harry Potter author, claiming “There was no intention by Oxfam or the film-makers for this slide to have portrayed any particular person or people.”

    Others pointed out that the other two characters next to JK Rowling the TERF were lazy stereotypes of muslim and asian men.

    Since it backtracked, Oxfam has now managed to anger pretty much everyone, and is now being accused of pushing trans ideology on young people while also “caving in” to “anti-trans fanatics”.

    Others questioned why Oxfam, which is an anti-poverty charity, feels the need to inject itself into matters of ‘inclusivity’.

    As we highlighted recently, the charity also released an “inclusive language” guide which apologises for using the English language before going on to deem a number of words ‘offensive’, such as “headquarters,” “local,” “people,” “mother” and “feminine hygiene.”

    Despite backlash, the charity doubled down on its woke insanity, releasing a statement clarifying, “This guide is not prescriptive but helps authors communicate in a way that is respectful to the diverse range of people with which we work. We are proud of using inclusive language; we won’t succeed in tackling poverty by excluding marginalised groups.”
