#Tiffany Newell is a man

[coochiequeens]

Oh Canada! Oh no!

A trans-identified male athlete has taken the top spot in yet another Canadian women’s running competition, adding to the growing list of victories against female athletes he has claimed since transitioning.

Tiffany Newell, 50, has now placed first in the women’s indoor 1500 meter running competition for women aged 50-54, which was held in Toronto, Ontario this past week. This is Newell’s latest victory and has added to his long list of first-place rankings and records in women’s running competitions.

On January 8, Newell took the top spot in the women’s 3000 meter for women aged 45-49 at the Winter Mini Meet, and would rank first in the women’s 5000 meter for women aged 45-49 just days later. 

He then went on to rank first in the 1500 meter for women aged 45-49 on February 5, and, following a birthday which placed him in a new age category, ranked first in the 1500 meter in the category for women aged 50-54 in a competition held from February 23 to February 26 in Toronto.

The news of Newell’s latest victory was announced by the International Consortium on Women’s Sport, a campaign group advocating for sexed categories, prompting anger and disbelief from those concerned with the preservation of women’s sport.

“That is ridiculous and no fan of athletics will view it as any sort of achievement,” wrote Colin Winter in response to the announcement. “It is a farce & everyone knows it but too many are too frit to say so. Frit is no excuse. If one’s job is to protect the integrity of a sport, that is what one has to do. If unable to do so, resign.”

Some have also expressed concern that Newell’s new age classification will result in him now seizing the 5000 meter title from Maria Zambrano, a female athlete with multiple records across the age groups she has competed in.

Last year, Newell set a Canadian record in the 5000 meter indoor running competition for women aged 45-49 held at Toronto’s York University. Newell ran 18:02.30over the distance, besting the previous record by six seconds. His record was ratified by the Canadian Masters Athletics in December, and it became the first time a trans-identified male athlete in Canada broke a national record in track. 

At that same competition, Newell also placed first in the women’s 800 meter race for women aged 45-49.

His victories earned him an “honorable mention” as the Ontario Master’s Athlete of the Month in March of 2022, just one month after snatching the top spots.

In January of 2023, Newell placed first in the women’s 5000 meter for women aged 45-49 once again during the Ontario Master’s Mini Meet held in Toronto.

Previously, Newell won a silver medal at the 2021 Canadian XC Championships in the masters 8K, and also finished second at the 2022 Hamilton Marathon.

Newell began transitioning in 2017, but began competing in women’s sport in 2020 after claiming to have met the recommended testosterone levels as set by the World Athletics guidelines on transgender athletes.

Last June, the global regulator for swimming, diving and water polo issued a ruling barring transgender athleteswho experienced male puberty from swimming and other aquatic sports. FINA opted to create an “open category” instead in order to preserve the fairness of sexed categories. The decision came after international backlash surrounding the success of Lia Thomas, a trans-identified male, in women’s swimming.

In an interview with Running Magazine earlier this year, Newell rejected the concept of an “open category” for transgender athletes in running, and claimed he should be allowed to compete against females as he identified as such.

“The policy makes sense for non-binary athletes, but I don’t feel comfortable racing against men. It categorizes me in the sex I am not identified as,” Newell said. “I am a woman, and I feel most comfortable racing against women or other transgender women. I believe an open category can work if athletes can continue to race against athletes of the same gender.”

Despite protests from trans activists, studies have consistently affirmed that trans-identified male athletes retain a significant edge over their female counterparts, even after starting hormone therapy.

In 2020, a study released in the British Journal of Sport Medicine noted that trans-identified males were able to complete 31% more push-ups and 15% more sit-ups in one minute on average than a female Air Force service member. They also ran 1.5 miles 21% faster.

But even after two years on testosterone suppression treatment, the males were still 12% faster on average than biological females.

A film of “Hamilton,” with its original Broadway cast, is coming to cinema screens on October 15, 2021, released by The Walt Disney Studios.

Spike Lee will film David Byrne’s American Utopia Lee previously filmed the Broadway productions of Passing Strange and Freak

The news of these stage-to-screen productions comes in a week when the “theater” most Americans are talking about has nothing to do with Broadway — the trials of Donald Trump and Harvey Weinstein, the first votes of the 2020 Presidential election in Iowa.

It is bracing to see a video chart of attendance at the most popular shows over the last 12 years and realize how, even if you add up all those attendance figures, they don’t equal the audience for the 14 minutes half-time show at the Super Bowl last night

.

        Theater may have become a niche art form. But it remains a mighty alluring one, even in the relatively fallow month of February.

Medea

From the get-go, the “Medea” on stage at BAM looks less like a modern update of Euripides’ tragedy than a fashion shoot: Bobby Cannavale talks quietly with Rose Byrne against an empty, blindingly white set…This “Medea” unfolds competently, the dialogue is often terse but sophisticated, and the performers are all fine. But the cast and the dialogue and even the story must cede much of the spotlight to the avant-garde stagecraft.

Nellie and the Women of Blackwell

Our safety word was “stunt reporter,” as Nellie Bly, one of the 19th century’s most celebrated journalists, took along the 18 of us undercover to the mental institution at Blackwell Island for her most famous exposé.

Since “Nellie and the Women of Blackwell,” a production by the young, woman-centered troupe Infinite Variety Productions, is taking place at Wildrence —the go-to Lower East Side underground hovel for immersive theater in New York — the implicit promise is that the audience will somehow experience the same abhorrent abuses that Bly witnessed. This is perhaps an admirable undertaking but certainly an impossibly challenging one.

Alyssa Simon as Dr. Jane with Len Rella as her father Dr. Alexander

Doctors Jane and Alexander

The Alexander in the title is Dr. Alexander Wiener, a pioneering scientist in the use of blood to identify individuals in ways similar to fingerprints, and co-discoverer of the Rh factor in blood; he was also a composer. The Jane is Dr. Jane Einhorn, a research psychologist who studied friendship; she was also a painter. Jane was Alexander’s daughter.

They are also the grandfather and the mother of the playwright and director, Edward Einhorn, who makes himself a character in his play, “Doctors Jane and Alexander”…which is the theatrical equivalent of his family album…

The Week in New York Theater News

Dancer Tries to Quell ‘West Side Story’ Controversy: ‘I Am Not a Victim’

“In the weeks leading up to the opening of the Broadway revival of “West Side Story,” a small contingent of protesters and an online petition have called for the removal of a prominent cast member, Amar Ramasar, who was at one point fired from New York City Ballet after he shared sexually explicit photos of another dancer.

“On Friday, the woman depicted in those photos, who is Mr. Ramasar’s girlfriend, spoke out. And she made clear that she thought Mr. Ramasar was being unfairly targeted…”

Shakespeare in the Park 2020 season: “Richard II” directed by Saheem Ali (May 19-June 21) “As You Like It” (July 14-Aug 8), the Public Works musical by Shaina Taub which debuted in 2017 now gets a full four-week production.

I’ve always liked the National Asian American Theatre Co (NAATCO) — their Henry VI was spectacular, their Awake and Sing eye-opening — and love that they’re partnering with the New York Theatre Workshop, Soho Rep, Two Rive Theater, the Long Wharf and other regional theaters to come, in order to foster a greater presence of Asian-Americans in theater.

Fun fact: At age 26, @MucyLoss, co-director & co-writer of @SixBroadway, is the youngest woman director on Broadway ever, breaking a record set by Elizabeth Swados with Runaways in 1978, who was 27. (Orson Welles staged Macbeth at age 20) pic.twitter.com/yjNCPoWn68
