PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA– In an ironic twist, the transgender swimmer who recently destroyed all the girl’s records at a meet last month is now calling out the University of Pennsylvania’s unfair addition of a bottlenose dolphin to the women’s swim team, saying the animal has an unfair advantage over its human competitors and should be banned.
The transgender swimmer Heather Swanson says she doesn’t agree with the NCAA’s new policy that allows ocean mammals to compete with humans, claiming that having an advantage was only fair when it benefited her.
“I don’t agree with UPenn’s decision to let that animal compete with us girls,” said Swanson, saying the new rules are unfair to transgender athletes competing against females. “I was very proud that I broke all those girl’s swimming records and then that dolphin shows up and takes them all away from me.”
The 15-year-old bottlenose dolphin swimmer named Clicker shattered Swanson’s records at last week’s swim meet, beating the transgender’s 1:43:47 200-meter freestyle by finishing in only an unbelievable 12:01 seconds.
The controversy didn’t stop there though, as the dolphin is now accusing Swanson of being dolphin-phobic and that the transgender swimmer is only targeting him because she doesn’t like aquatic mammals.
