Notably, the headlines in some international publications, like the Daily Mail, had headlines that indicated Petrillo "Medaled," which is accurate but suggested that she came in 1st place.  If the haters were right, she should have dominated the race, but they are loathe to admit that she did not.

Trans fem athletes are usually beaten by cis women at some point.  But that doesn't mean anything to their detractors.

Perhaps we should create trans games.  I certainly know many trans men who can run faster and lift more than i can.  Well maybe i could hobble along ok in the 75 year and up events.
