What a sham…So not fair for the biological woman competitors. Would love to hear how anyone can think this man’s inclusion in woman’s swimming is acceptable and celebrated.
I sure hope this is bull shit, and if it is I apologize for spreading a falsehood
SHE, has been an international swimming phenom since 2012. Would not someone have made some kind of allegation or accusation between then and now? Long ago? Nothing. Not a whisper until last year.......
I'm assuming locker rooms for women/girls are generally set up the same as for men/boys. Open showers, locker spaces, etc. If that is true, then surely she would have been outed long ago, no?
Trying so hard to protect women's sports that they have now taken to degrading women.

exactly....SHE started swimming at six...went to Catholic prep schools, you really think that secret would make it this far? Just off the charts ignorant.

It's *almost* as if it's not about protecting women's sports at all.

Just because some random person started a rumor doesn’t mean anything. I haven’t heard of it outside of it being shared on this forum, not many seem to be talking about it or taking this rumor seriously. My guess it started as either a prank or someone confused her with Lia Thomson and made a meme when she tied Phelps’ record.

I imagine it was purposeful lie as they know people will not research anything themselves and it will push an agenda. And tbh, it's a nuanced topic but in general and am not pro-trans in regards to competing in sports like this. I don't think it can be without some true guardrails otherwise, why separate genders at all?

I'm sure she enjoys reading these conspiracy theories about herself. Maybe she'll get beaten up or sexually assaulted. Her lost safety and physical/mental health can just be collateral damage toward the noble goal of angering people towards a desired conclusion.

I only hear of Ledecky once every 4 years during the Olympics. It’s not like most people follow competitive swimming. Im guessing very few people believe that rumor. And the majority who do are just confusing her with Lia Thomas. I remembered Ledecky’s name when I saw that first post because I love watching the Olympics and knew it wasn’t right. I had to Google the name of the trans swimmer because I couldn’t remember it. I’m betting those who believe this rumor just know there’s a trans swimming in the news and don’t remember the name like I did and assume this is her. I probably would have done the same if I didn’t remember Ledecky from watching her 3 years ago. My guess is you won’t be hearing much of this rumor in the future, it’s going to die quickly.

I'm not giving the site that traffic...but from the apparent title, the very existence of it shows once again who spends so much time thinking about this kind of thing.

What weirdo facebook group did you find this bogus Ledecky nonsense, Linda? That poor girl doesn't deserve that.
Maga needs to get their heads out of the gutter and focus on stuff that actually matters.
The only thing that matters is the owning of the libs. And making the wealthiest of the wealthy more wealthy. And giving hard earned cash to gods orange grifter. And guns more guns so many perfect guns

Look, guys, I'm as unimpressed as anyone with the hard right, but personal attacks never changed anyone's mind, especially in a forum that doesn't allow it. I think it makes more sense to ignore personal statements you and I think are bullshit. Beats taking the chance of getting a time out.
A generalized statement of disdain for the far-right though-- yeah, I think that is fair game.

It's the mob effect on here. I don't bother anymore with pouncing on the idiocy as some seem to enjoy.

Maybe we can use this moment to try and decipher how and why horrible rumors like this get spread so easily though? Generally speaking, of course, it seems as if the people spreading them are gleeful about it and spend no effort in trying to determine if it's true or not. Why is maga so consumed with trans people in the first place? I think these are legitimate things to discuss.
You don’t see the same thing happen here all the time? There’s wrong information posted about Texas, Fox, etc, and most people accept and comment on it without thinking twice. Often it’s easily disproved.

No I don't. Can you provide an example of something that is similar to this ugly and meanspirited Katie Ledecky rumor?

I'm sure there's a nice ven diagram of people who believe both that and the Ledecky one. haha
Literally the 2nd biggest story on their website right now is about some UK coffee company putting a picture of a trans person on one of their products. These people are crazy.

If they really wanted to cancel them they would not have used the correct pronoun? They called them a man when they used to be a woman so hey, maybe they get it?
