The Olympics

[Barmitzvah Boy]

The Olympics are apparently taking place in Tokyo.

This article caught my attention. Is this a case of unfair advantage or a victory for inclusion?

I bet the Labour Party will support she/him/it/thingy-me-bob*

Indeed so. He was a male when his balls dropped and he developed male muscles therefore he should only compete with males and not females. If taking his meds means that he can't compete anymore then that's his choice.

Will he/she still have balls? This is a serious technical question.

You'll have to watch BB, they may squeeze out of the underside of her/his cossie

Who cares, he won't have any ovaries that's for sure. I doubt this individuals 'time of the month will coincide with the Olympics that's for sure.

The inclusion of synchronized (sic) swimming in LA was my personal epiphany with the Games. Since then, the inclusion of golf and football has just totally alienated me. Oh, that and the rampant corruption and politicisation of the event.

So what's the catch here............. there must be one for a Dingle to stump up this much! Dave Fishwick offers to pay Norway team's bikini bottom fine | Lancashire Telegraph

With all the fuss made over Team GB having more female athletes than males for the first time, I am wondering when these females are going to come to the party and win Gold.

3 golds and 2 silvers for the men and 1 bronze for the females so far. Even The Golden girl of taekwondo got knocked out by an unknown from a refugee team. Come on girls, sort it out!!!

Looks like he's got some competition

Pink offers to pay bikini bottoms fine for Norway women's handball team

The Norway women's side were last week fined for wearing shorts instead of bikini bottoms in a match.

I think it was a very good idea.

Watched the 4x100 meters mixed swim medley last night. A great win for the Brits and that Adam Piety is a bloody monster! I've long held the opinion that swimmers have the best physiques out of all sports (apart from beach volleyball of course ) but Piety takes it to another level! Pity about the ink mind.

Never mind him pal, that girl who went last Anna Hopkin was it? She swam so cleanly through the water there was hardly any turbulence! Isn’t she a local girl?

Edit: yes just checked she’s a 25 year old from Chorley.
