Brett Favre Speaks on Transgender
Athlete Laurel Hubbard:, ‘It’s Not Fair’.
Brett Favre has spoken out in opposition of
transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard.
The NFL Hall of Fame quarterback
made his remarks during a recent
episode of his podcast,
‘Boiling with Favre.’ .
According to Favre, Hubbard should not be allowed to
compete in the 2021 Tokyo Games because it’s “unfair.”.
He then went on to claim he has “no problem”
with transgender people, while also repeatedly
referring to Hubbard by the incorrect gender.
It's a man competing as a woman…
That’s unfair! It's not fair for a man, even
if this person wants to be a woman or feels
compelled — if you want to become the
opposite sex, that's fine. I got no problem
with it. But you can't compete against —
males cannot compete against females, Brett Favre, via ‘Boiling with Favre’.
Favre finished his rant by saying that he
would be “beside [himself]” if he were a
“true female” that lost to Hubbard. .
If I was a true female — I can't believe
I'm saying that — and I was competing
in weightlifting and lost to this person,
I would be beside myself, Brett Favre, via ‘Boiling with Favre’.
43-year-old Hubbard
is the first transgender
woman to qualify
for the Olympics. .
She will compete on New Zealand’s weightlifting team
with the full support of the country’s Olympic Committee. .
I am grateful and humbled by the
kindness and support that has been given
to me by so many New Zealanders, Laurel Hubbard, via Blaze Media
