A sportswriter for a prolific LGBTQ media outlet said recently that Fallon Fox — a transgender female MMA competitor who was biologically born a male — is the “bravest athlete in history.”
Fox, 44, once broke a female competitor’s skull during a 2014 fight.
In late January, Outsports contributor Cyd Zeigler praised Fox’s performance in the octagon and said that Fox is easily the bravest athlete in all of history.
Zeigler wrote, “She’s been inducted in the LGBT Sports Hall of Fame. She is an indelible part of LGBT sports history. And, maybe most importantly, she generated conversations an [sic] opened possibilities for trans athletes in women’s sports that will be felt for generations.”
Zeigler also praised Fox for enduring a “torrent of hatred I have literally never seen targeting an LGBTQ athlete.”
As highlighted by Disrn, Fox has received criticism for delivering “life-altering blows” to female opponents in the ring.
That thing should be exterminated
Trans athletes should compete solely against other trans athletes of their dna types, i.e., trans girls against trans girls, trans boys against trans boys. It’s the only fair way.
Thinking about it, we men could probably run faster without testicles in the way.
