This is a biased right-wing news source that utilizes fear mongering and straw man fallacies galore to make its points. Irish Dance is subjective and anyone can move up or down tens of places for any number of reasons. I hope the dancer who missed out on a world medal took it with grace and returns next year to try and get one again, but I am equally happy for all those who got a world medal this year, including (yes including) the child we are all pouncing on. Can say for a fact there were other transgender dancers at this year's worlds, and y'all only care when people different than you are excellent at their chosen sport and proud to be themselves.

- Yes, we even know about the switch hitter that dances both lines, sometimes at the same feis. But she just tries to be her best self and doesn't push it on everyone else. (NT) -- ., 08:14:45 04/01/24 Mon
