Anyone else notice how when an athlete comes out as a transwoman, the press only show photos of them alone, so they look lonely, isolated, harmless? This is cyclist Emily Bridges 1/
Emily was a champion male youth cyclist. And seemed a similar build to other competitors. Often beating these boys. 2/
When next to girls or women, we saw a size difference. 3/
But soon, Emily will be competing against female riders, because that will make Emily happy. What about the girls, you ask? Yes, what about them? If Emily is winning and happy, isn’t that enough? Won’t that be fairness, equality, justice? 4/
June Eastwood gets soft focus, beautiful photos and speaks in such a gentle, kind voice. Always shown alone, feeling left out. Won’t someone help Juniper? 5/
