Powerlifter reacts to biological male taking women’s national record: ‘Completely unfair’By Hannah Grossman, Fox News
August 16, 2023
A competitive female powerlifter responded to a record-breaking win from a transgender athlete who lifted 200 kilograms more than the second-place winner, calling it “completely unfair.”
April Hutchinson discussed Anne Andres, a 40-year-old transwoman setting all-time records at the Canadian Powerlifting Union’s 2023 Western Canadian Championship Sunday.
Hutchinson has been a powerlifter with the Canadian Powerlifting Union for about four years.
She said on Talk TV that has been fighting her federation to ban trans women in powerlifting, stating that many other female lifters do not agree with it and have been complaining.
“My boyfriend could basically walk in tomorrow, identify as a female, compete, and then the next day, go back to being a man again. No proof, no ID required, just basically going on how you feel that day or whatever gender you want to it,” she said.
