Women Swimmers Betrayed

-

Riley Gaines, exposes how professional sports is forcing women to compete 
against men who claim to be women. 

I wonder how Riley Gaines feels about the news from Fukuoka, Japan. The World Aquatics Congress decided that ‘our sport must be open to everybody.’ That is why this swimming body is abandoning its earlier decision that women should swim with women, and men with men.

“But I am delighted to tell you today that we are now making plans for the first trial of an open category, and we hope to be able to confirm all the details soon,’ said  Al-Musallam, on behalf of the World Aquatics Congress.

In simple language, Lia Thomas, a man who swam in the women’s category in Penn State because he couldn’t win as a male swimmer from 2017-2020, has won on two fronts. Men who cannot win when competing against men, can claim to be women, and swim against women like Riley Gaines who used to swim for the University of Kentucky. Secondly, the World Aquatics organization confirms that few men who declare they are women for personal reasons, can impose their minority views on the global majority.

This is a victory for Lia Thomas and a setback for Riley Gaines, who is born a woman, did not choose to be a woman and does not have the right to regard herself as anything else, other than being a woman. Lia Thomas, a male swimmer has a choice, to be male or female depending on the circumstances,.

Now let’s examine the ‘open category’ World Aquatics is advocating. The starting point is what is male, what is female. That doesn’t exist as far as America is concerned. The next logical step is ‘open category’ in the following professional sports.

1. Tennis. Dismantle men’s and women’s singles categories in Wimbledon and U.S. Open tournaments.  It’s what America wants. It’s what America demands.

2. Basketball. Dismantle the NBA and WNBA. Have an open category because male and female doesn’t exist. It’s what America wants. It’s what America demands.

3. Major League Basketball (MLB). Have an open category because men and women do not exist. It’s what America wants. It’s what America demands.

4. Hockey. Dismantle the National Hockey League ((NHL) and have an open category where men play with women. It’s what America wants. It’s what America demands.

5. Professional wrestling. Merge men’s and women’s categories.

Elections And Political Bullies

-

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

-

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

No Air Miles

I don’t have Air Miles.   I’m considering putting that on a T-Shirt because I cannot go to the drugstore (chemist) or coffee shop without the cashier asking me if I have air miles. We waited for about two minutes the other day, while this guy looked for his Air Miles card in his overweight wallet.   For what?   For a few points. I don’t have air miles because Mathematics is a foreign language.   I was never good in numbers. That is why I squashed the idea of being an investment banker very early in life.   I understand you can invest in cornfields before the soil is turned up or pork bellies even before a baby pig is born. That is how I view air miles, investing in tomorrow or the unknown.   I’m the dumb one.   Some people understand this air miles’ thing so well, I overheard one customer saying: I can even convert my points into cash. Points and air miles are the same thing in Canada and the U.S.   Drugstores or clothing stores even give you a card to collect point
