New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard will make history on Monday evening, becoming the first openly transgender woman to compete at the Olympics.
Kiwi officials named Hubbard in the squad for the Tokyo Gamesearlier this year, sparking debate among the global sporting community.
New Zealand Olympic Committee chief Kereyn Smith said Hubbard — who was born male but transitioned to female in her 30s — had met all the qualification criteria for transgender athletes.
The 43-year-old became eligible to lift as a woman after showing testosterone levels below the threshold of 10nmol/L required by the International Olympic Committee..
**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Now, on testosterone, doctors measure testosterone in nanomoles per litre (nmol/l)

The reported “normal” healthy range in males is anywhere from 9.2 to 31.8 nmol/L. It is about ten times lower in females, with “normal” levels considered to be between 0.3 and 2.4 nmol/L.

So in real life, this is how it workd. A bloke who wants to qualify for PBS rebates on his HRT, or his testosterone shots is required to have two consecutive measurements < 6 nmol/l.

Now they have moved to "no surgery required" and transgender athletes will be allowed to compete in the Olympics and other international events without undergoing sex reassignment surgery, according to new guidelines adopted by the IOC.

So just about any normal bloke who wants to, can declare "I'm a chick" and qualify.

The world has been overwhelmed and hijacked by a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a % and women's sport will become a joke.

The power of the left is on full display

Extremist LWNJ identity politics taking over world sport as well.

Ah well, regimes have always used the Olympics to further their crazy lunatic views especially in the 1936 Berlin Olympics to now this New Zealand.

Ardern probably trying to make a statement. Tell New Zealand it was supposed to be weightlifting for females.
