Hmm! Transgender at 10?!..So, a 10-year-old trany who won second prize in a swimming gala race was delighted with his victory – but then he was disqualified because he used to be a girl.
Organizers said he had the wrong swimming trunks on because he was wearing a ‘full skin’ rather than boys’ trunks. But his mum said he had to wear this, saying: ‘When you find a transgender bathing suit, let me know, and I’ll go out and buy one.’
‘He is not going to go into the girls’ race because he is not a girl.’ His mum, who didn’t give her name, said her child was born a girl but now identifies, dresses, and is treated at school as a boy.
Despite being allowed to swim the race, he was told the result would not stand – and his school team was also disqualified from the relay.
The child, who also has autism, was taking part in a swimming gala held by the Welsh youth movement Urdd at a leisure centre in Llanelli, South Wales.
Now his mum and his school have protested as they believe disqualification stemmed from the child’s gender transition being ‘outed’ to the judges.
His mother said: ‘I have no other words other than ‘disappointed’. I can only commend the staff at the school – they did everything they could do to protect the children.’
