To clarify, the pictured poster Caroline Kwan is an ally, not a TERF. The TERFs referred to in the title are the ones ‘protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is’
i think we need a normie olympics, it'd be like the paralympics, but for people randomly selected from the average population.
My kid said just the other day. "they should have an average person do it first so we could see the difference."
Now I'm thinking which one would be the funniest. Hurdles are definitely up there

Oh, right! Now I know why the image in my head was so vivid. I actually saw it before
Summer olympics: Pole vault
Winter olympics: Luge
For pole vaulting I'd be surprised if even one person would dare to do the jump. I'm pretty sure I'd chicken out, but to be fair, it looks like it's really easy to get hurt
There are a LOT of Olympic sports that you probably shouldn't "just do."
Fencing would be pretty amusing.
bonus points if it's horse based (though that's just jousting)
Diving, pole jumping, gymnastics in general
i absolutely agree with your kid, get that kid on marketing stat!
I told her the same thing. She should pitch it for the next Olympics. She'd be 14 when that happens. Gives her four years to plan.
You should watch Takeshis Castle then. It's pretty close to normie olympics.
Sometimes athletes go on, but the obstacles are so fucky even they struggle with it.
oh right, that show, i remember hearing about it at one point, what a weird show.
