Male Powerlifter Enters Women’s Competition to Protest Woke Gender Self-ID Laws
By Amber Crawford
In protest against Canada’s woke gender self-ID laws, a male powerlifter entered into a women’s bench press competition claiming he identifies as a woman, showing everyone just how ridiculous it is to let biological men compete against females.
Avi Silverberg, a powerlifting coach for Team Canada, attended the ‘Heroes Classic’ tournament in Alberta on Saturday. At the competition, Silverberg easily broke the female bench press record for the 84+ kilograms women’s category, a 270lbs press, which was set by another biological male lifter.
This is how insane things are.

The Canadian Powerlifting Union’s ‘trans inclusion policy’ allows anyone who self-identifies as a woman to compete in the female category, despite males who have gone through puberty having a significant advantage over biological females.
