New Zealand’s Strongest Man Dale Shepherd Enters Women’s Powerlifting Competition To Protest.

New Zealand’s Strongest Man enters women’s powerlifting competition to protest its transgender policy, forcing organizers to change the rules overnight

A male weightlifter once dubbed “New Zealand’s Strongest Man” applied last week to compete in a women’s powerlifting competition. His intention was not to defeat women in the sport, but rather to discredit the notion that biological men don’t have a physiological advantage over their female peers — an advantage which male transsexuals appear keen to simultaneously exploit and deny.

Global Powerlifting Committee New Zealand has since denied Dale Shepherd’s application, adopting new rules over the weekend that will preclude him from taking the stage to make his point.

While Shepherd suggests the new rules are similarly “deficient,” it appears that with his controversial application, he may have forced a shift in the right direction without having to break a sweat.
