Did the Daily Mail do anything wrong here?
Two transgender swimmers Lia Thomas and Iszac Henig - who competed as a woman - swam the fastest relay times on the first night of the Ivy League Women's Championship on Wednesday, leading to further questions about their continued participation in sporting competition.
Lia Thomas, 22, was swimming for Penn State's men's team in 2019 when she began to medically transition, taking testosterone blockers and estrogen. She is allowed to compete as a woman because she has completed a year of hormone treatment.
Iszac Henig, meanwhile, is transitioning from female to male, but the 21-year-old Yale swimmer has not taken any testosterone and is still able to compete as a woman. He swam topless, simply wearing a pair of men's swimming briefs.

Perhaps an obvious response, but...those are AP photos.

So gender politics now require that swimmers cannot be photographed?

Not allowed to mention men and women's uniforms usually are different either. TERF's worst nightmare

They're merely as misguided as other people with radical views on the other side of the spectrum. Radicals tend to be wrong more often than not.

I’d like a list of all the athletes who have been subject to anatomical, chromosomal or hormonal scrutiny in the last century.

It'll take me a minute to dig up the East German Olympics roster from 1968-88.

The media only finds one opinion on this subject to be acceptable.

Trans women continue to dominate the competition.
