The UPenn swimmer, 22, who was born male, won the 500 yard freestyle in Atlanta in a time of 4 minutes, 33.24 seconds on Thursday evening.
Afterwards, the crowd were notably more enthusiastic when cheering for the woman who’d come second place – Emma Weyant, of the University of Virginia. She was born female and swam 4:34.99.
While Thomas was given some cheers, boos could also be heard ringing out throughout the spectator stands, as she continues to face allegations that going through male puberty has given her an unfair advantage over her rivals.
‘I try to ignore it as much as I can, I try to focus on my swimming what I need to do to get ready for my races and I just try to block out everything else,’ said Thomas after the race, when asked by ESPN about the response.
It means the world to be here, to be with two of my best friend and teammates and be able to compete.’
Judging by the reception from the crowd, most people in attendance believe Lia should be competing in the men’s competition.
DailyMail report: Thomas, whose continued wins and record-breaking performances have made her the world’s most controversial athlete, also roundly defeated fellow swimmers at last month’s Ivy League championships.
The Texan, who swam for three years on the university’s men’s team before transitioning in 2019, is now the first transgender athlete to win a NCAA championship – a distinction one of Thomas’ teammates said would be dubious if achieved.
Thomas has undergone the required hormone treatment to meet the current rules for transgender athletes, but critics say her stunning performances prove that she still retains a considerable and unfair advantage.
‘It’s not necessarily an achievement in my mind,’ said one of Thomas’ teammates on UPenn’s Women’s Swim Team.
The teammate, who refused to give her name for fear of repercussions, told Fox News Digital that Thomas’s participation in D1-sanctioned women’s events has ‘completely ruined the integrity of the sport.’
She said Thomas’ achievements while on the women’s team should be taken with a grain of salt, due to the biological advantages of being born a man.
‘It’s its own distinct category because no woman is going to be as fast as a man, and here, is just completely – we’re just throwing away the definition of a record to fit into someone else’s agenda of what it should mean to them,‘ she said.
‘In reality, it makes no scientific sense to do so.‘

In the 80s all the cools girls wanted to be vampire lesbian cannibal witches here Now they WA t to be amazonian vampire lesbian cannibal witches with a penis ill bet.
I find this hilarious. Since the sixties the Feminazi’s have been making the claim that men and women are equal. You own this Feminazi’s.
If those women had any intelligence or self respect, they would walk away from the race, or just stand there silently after the start gun discharges, let the freak swim the race by himself.
Agreed!! “If you have a dick, you ain’t no chick” it’s just science. So tired of these TGs forcing their idiotic and WRONG ideology on the rest of us. I think they are trying to erase women by doing this. They now have technology to incubate babies in an incubator no women needed any more to continue the human race.
satan cannot create life, only counterfeit it or diminish it. I am not too worried about the fony uteriouses.
“Satan cannot create life, only counterfeit it” – that’s a good way to put it. That’s something that really stands out to me about the satanists is that they can’t create anything beautiful or useful nor can they create life. It always ends up being ugly, doesn’t work and/or does no one any good. Only God can create life.
