[theivorybilledwoodpecker]

Does anyone remember these cases? Caster Semenya, Dutee Chand, Christine Mboma, Aminatou Seyni, Maria José Martínez-Patiño, and Beatrice Masilingi are all cis womem who have been disqualified from certain professional races because their bodies naturally produce more testosterone than is considered normal in a medical sense.

This is a condition they were born with. But rules regarding high testosterone levels say they "do not qualify as female" for the purpose of these races.

This isn't strictly transphobia, but neither can one say it's unrelated. It's misogyny. (And while white women have experienced this, it seems most people who get disqualified are people of color, so I don't believe for one second racism isn't involved.) It's saying that to be a woman, you need to fit into a box. It's saying if you don't meet a checklist of qualifications, you are "other."

Anti-trans laws hurt anyone who wants to live in a peaceful, tolerant society.

[levres-rebelles]

Y'all wanna hear something ugly?

Aminatou Seyni, a female Athlete from Niger, won't be allowed to compete in the Tokyo Olympic Games, because of her body's natural ability to produce more testosterone.

Just like Caster Semenya, white people want to punish Aminatou Seyni for existing as she is.

Interestingly, the IAAF regulations on hyperandrogenism are only supposed to apply to the 400m and 800m events. This is also why Aminatou Seyni decided, in 2019, to go from 400m to 200m

Per the IAAF's own rules, Aminatou Seyni was in the clear.

Now a sprinter of the 200 meters competition, she shouldn't have been expected to supposed to take by medicine that would alter her body

But as we know, the goal post keeps being moved away for Black folks.

Mondiaux d’athlétisme 2019: la révélation Aminatou Seyni

La quatrième journée des Championnats du monde d’athlétisme a été l’occasion pour le grand public de découvrir un peu plus Aminatou Seyni. La Nigérienne s’est illustrée lors de séries du 200 mètres orphelines de l’Ivoirienne Marie-Josée Ta Lou (forfait). En courses de demi-fond, de fond et d’obstacles, ce 30 septembre a été bénéfique pour les athlètes d’Afrique de l’Est, avec 4 médailles dont 3…

Una jornada dominada por las finales de 200 metros

La actividad de los atletas sudamericanos fue limitada en la jornada de este jueves 21 de julio en el Hayward Field de Eugene, por el Campeonato Mundial de Atletismo, que se va acercando a sus tramos finales y que este viernes contemplará las clasificaciones del salto con garrocha. Allí estarán, entre otros, el brasileño y medallista olímpico Thiago Braz da Silva y el recordman argentino Germán Chiaraviglio, en una prueba que cuenta con uno de los superstars del atletismo contemporáneo, el sueco Armand Duplantis. Este jueves, la uruguaya Débora Rodríguez cumplió uno de sus 800 metros más rápidos de la temporada (2m03s04) pero no fue suficiente para avanzar a semifinales, ya que terminó 7a. en la primera serie. Sí pudo avanzar el brasileño Almir Cunha dos Santos en salto triple, ya que su marca de 16.71 m. le ubicó entre los doce finalistas. Se quedaron en qualy sus compatriotas Mateus Daniel Adao de Sá (16.04) y Aleksandro do Nascimento de Melo, sin marca. La noche del jueves fue acaparada por las finales de los 200 metros. Allí el estadounidense Noah Lyles y la jamaiquina Shericka Jackson concretaron dos de las mejores actuaciones de todos los tiempos con 19s.31 y 21s.45 respectivamente para caballeros y damas. Las finales de los 200 metros fueron contempladas, entre otros, por esas verdaderas leyendas del atletismo mundial y de esa especialidad, Tommie Smith y John Carlos, campeón y bronce respectivamente en los Juegos de México 68 y emblemas de las luchas contra el racismo. Antes de la final masculina de 200 m en Eugene , Smith y Carlos fueron presentados a la multitud y recibieron una entusiasta recepción, el amor por ellos era tan profundo como su amor por el deporte.mAl llegar a la final de los 200 metros, la mayoría vio a la sensación estadounidense de 18 años Erriyon Knighton como el atleta con el potencial de destronar a Lyles como campeón mundial. Y aunque Knighton produjo su típica curva fuerte, este fue uno de esos escenarios en los que el carril interior no era una ventaja. En la recta final, Lyles se soltó, su velocidad fue tan grande que comenzó a poner todo lo que había aprendido y practicado miles de veces en el entrenamiento bajo una gran presión. Su marca de 19s.31 lo eleva al tercer lugar de la lista mundial de todos los tiempos, sólo precedido por los jamaiquinos Usain Bolt y Yohan Blake. Michael Johnson, otro ex recordman mundial con 19s.32, fue uno de los primeros en abrazar a Lyles. La medalla de plata fue para sus compatriotas Bednarek (19s.77) y Knighton (19s80). Cuarto quedó Joseph Fahbulleh, el liberiano que marcó 19.84. “Todos sueñan con este día”, dijo Lyles. “Pero hoy fue mi día”. Minutos antes, la jamaiquina Shericka Jackson realizó una actuación igualmente inigualable para ganar los 200 metros femeninos con un estilo asombroso, esperando su momento, relativamente hablando, hasta la recta final, momento en el que superó a la campeona de 100 metros Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce. Su tiempo de 21.45 fue un récord de campeonato y la colocó en segundo lugar en la lista mundial de todos los tiempos detrás de los 21.34 de Florence Griffith-Joyner. “No estaba pensando en ningún tiempo ni en ningún récord. Sé que Shelly es probablemente una de las mejores corredoras de curvas del mundo, así que sabía que iba a esforzarse. Sabía que si quería obtener el oro, tenía que correr la curva lo más fuerte posible” dijo Jackson. Fraser fue medalla de plata con 21s81 y el bronce quedó para la británica Dina Asher-Smith, campeona de 2019, con 22s02.  Aminatou Seyni de Níger (22,12) y Abby Steiner de EE. UU. (22,26) fueron las siguientes. El campeón mundial defensor Anderson Peters de Granada y el campeón olímpico Neeraj Chopra de India lideraron  la calificación de jabalina masculina, con Peters lanzando 89,91 my Chopra 88,39 m. Jakub Vadlejch de la República Checa (85,23 m) y el alemán Julian Weber (87,28 m) fueron los únicos que superaron la marca de clasificación automática de 83,50 m. El alemán Andreas Hofman, un lanzador de 87,32 m este año, registró tres faltas y fue eliminado. La calificación de triple salto masculino vio a Pedro Pichardo de Portugal y Hugues Fabrice Zango de Burkina Faso a la cabeza, con Zango marcando la marca automática en la segunda ronda con 17,15 y Pichardo saltando 17,16 m en la primera.

Diamond League: Noah Lyles clocks 19.50 in 200m win in Lausanne

New Post has been published on https://thebiafrastar.com/diamond-league-noah-lyles-clocks-19-50-in-200m-win-in-lausanne/

Diamond League: Noah Lyles clocks 19.50 in 200m win in Lausanne

Noah Lyle’s time was the eighth best in history – Bolt has bettered it four times, Blake twice and Johnson once

Noah Lyles became the fourth fastest 200m runner of all time as he won the Diamond League meeting in Lausanne in a time of 19.50 seconds.

The 21-year-old’s time has only been bettered by fellow American Michael Johnson, Yohan Blake and world record holder Usain Bolt, both of Jamaica.

Lyles – who also has the second fastest 100m time this year at 9.86 – ran the fastest 200m race since Bolt won Olympic gold in London in 2012.

Justin Gatlin won the 100m in 9.92.

The 37-year-old world champion, one of six Americans in the race, beat compatriot Michael Rodgers into second, with Aaron Brown of Canada finishing third.

Asked if he expected to run so fast from lane seven, Lyles said: “Oh my God, would it be crazy if I said yes?.

“Really, it was all about the plan. Me and my coach have been working on that turn. I don’t know if we’ll be expecting something (at the worlds), I’ll just do what I do.”

Britain’sDina Asher-Smithclocked a season’s best 20.91 in the women’s 200m but finished second behind double Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce of Jamaica.

Asher-Smith, 23, finished ahead of Ivorian Marie-Josee Ta Lou and Dafne Schippers of the Netherlands, who won silver and gold respectively at the 2017 World Championships.

Overnight success

Niger have never won a medal in the World Championships – could Aminatou Seyni (r) break the duck?

Bahrain’s Salwa Eid Naser made it four 400m victories from as many Diamond League races this year but she was pushed all the way by Niger’sAminatou Seyni.

Naser won in 49.17, beating the previous Lausanne record of 49.45 set by France’s Marie-Jose Perec in 1996 – but Seyni was just behind in 49.19.

Seyni was a relative unknown just two weeks ago, but has since improved her personal best by one and a half seconds.

Her time was the second best by an African woman, and makes her the seventh-fastest woman this century.

“My race was very good,” said the 22-year-old.

Hagos Gebrhiwet of Ethiopia suffered an embarrassing mishap during the men’s 5,000m, crossing the line with his arms raised in celebration – but with a lap still remaining.

His compatriot Yomif Kejelcha took full advantage, showing little sympathy to win as Gebrhiwet was forced to settle for 10th.

[intersexcat-tboy]

I scrolled through the tags briefly and wanted to address some things. First isn't a screenshot bc I hate how big they appear on screen, I'll also break it up bc there were a lot of tags on that post. After that will be education!

#forgive me, i'm not educated on the topic #but i had thought intersex was like. physical traits. or. idk how to say it #sex characteristics abnormalities

Please don't call our variations abnormalities!

#if you were completely typical body-wise but still had out-of-ordinary chromosomes, are you intersex?

Yes, they can very much be

#i thought no, you just had weird chromosomes

Similar to the first thing I said

#like i doubt people were "discovering" they had unusual sex characteristics left and right #maybe i have my definition wrong my head [/end]

You do 🙃

Yes! You are remembering correctly, which brings us to what I was going to say, and I'm glad someone beat me to it (however, it took a lot of scrolling)

They haven't stopped!! Caster Seymana is just ONE of the modern athletes who have fought to compete.

Dutee Chand (well, she isn't black but is Indian, banned by the Indian Athletics Federation),

Margaret Wambui (2020 Olympics),

Francine Niyonsaba (800m '20 Olympics),

Barbra Banda (banned by Confederation of African Football),

Lin Yu-ting and Imane Khelif (Taiwanese and Algerian, banned by International Boxing Association), along with

Beatrice Masilingi and Aminatou Seyni and Christine Mboma (all 400m '20 Olympics)

have all faced a ban of some sort in one of their sports/events. You can read more about their stories [here], and I urge you to!

The point being, it is heavily skewed to punish non white participants. There isn't a white individual on this (modern) list
