Here’s why. Does anyone even know what the paralympics even is? Looking from the comments below, I sincerely doubt they do.
The paralympics is basically “The Paralympic Games or Paralympics, also known as the Games of the Paralympiad, is a periodic series of international multisport events involving athletes with a range of disabilities.”
So do you know what this is exactly saying? This is saying that Transgenderism is a disability. That is giving more ammo to all of the bigots out there who’ve been crying about how Transgenderism is just a choice and that it’s all wrong .etc
I cannot say that I’m fully in support of this. I would’ve been more proud if a Transgender individual made it to the Olympics and was breaking ground for their group. But no, this is them being in the backburners of society for pity points.
Petrillo, 50, was diagnosed with Stargardt disease, a degenerative condition of the eyes, at the age of 14. She competes in the women’s T12 category for athletes with a visual impairment.
The headline was to show a groundbreaking event. If she were the first black woman to compete in the Paralympics, that is what the headline would say. And no one, save maybe you, would think that meant being black was a disability.
This is disrespectful.

Absolutely disgraceful.
i mean. read the article maybe?
I did read the article. Now did you see what the headline read? Why don’t you go bitch at them. Or don’t and be a spitful downvoting piece of trash.
If you didn’t read it as Transgender woman (with some kind of disability) competing in Paralynpixs" then that’s a you problem.
