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’

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

Fencing would be pretty amusing.

bonus points if it's horse based (though that's just jousting)

[-] Moah@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 3 months ago

Diving, pole jumping, gymnastics in general

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.
