I have thought long and hard before sticking my head above this particular parapet but finally concluded I had to say something. 1/7 pullbuoy.co.uk/opinion/ivy-l…

Let's celebrate the true 500y Ivy League women's champion Catherine Buroker, of @PennSwimDive. Catherine was the first female athlete to touch the wall on Feb 17 in a big season's best time of 4:47.22. Buroker is a two-time Ivy League champion and NCAA Division I All-American. 1/

The hypocrisy of the fuss created by allowing a 15yr old girl to compete having been given a performance enhancing illegal drug giving her a tiny (but important) advantage verses giving away a 12% advantage to a MALE in a Women’s @NCAA swimming championship in mind boggling🤯
Cheating at the #olympics is officially allowed now then? Astonishing that this has been sanctioned. Bye bye clean sport. #KamilaValieva #

Here's an old photo of a hot summer's day on #Nottingham's canal.
In Victorian times many workers died from falling into canals and ingesting polluted water and its partly why head-up breaststroke became the preferred stroke to teach non-swimmers thereafter.

I don’t spend a lot of time wondering why so males want to have unlimited access to female space.
And I do know that decent men would never dream of violating the boundaries of women & girls.

Fascinating to see the almighty row & press coverage of yesterday’s F1 final in Abu Dhabi. People care passionately about fairness in sport - without it, sport is nothing. Or at least they care when it’s males competing. Let’s see the same demands for fairness in female sport!
Wow. Just wow. @Swim_England training on ‘Contemporary Issues’ for officials states gender is a protected characteristic under the 2010 Act. It’s not - sex is. @britishswimming governing body needs to do better. Much better. @SexMattersOrg @sharrond62 #PennCheats
The beginning of the end of women’s swimming. #SaveWomensSports
Well it just keeps happening, doesn’t it?
Weekly update on record setting wins, by margins so large (by 14+ seconds!) one might even think this person belongs in a different category. 🤔✅

Repeat after me. Most swimming (insert other amateur sports) clubs are run purely by volunteers. They have jobs and personal lives away from the club. Never forget it and always respect it. Without them you have no club.
Pretty irritating to be constantly sent these @Specsavers emails when there are no kids appointments AT ALL this year and when you ring up they have a list of over 100 kids! 🤷🏼♀️🙄
