She’s not a regular woman, she’s a freak of a woman. Most those athletes are freaks amongst regular people, she’s just not a freak in the same way most of them are.
Michael Phelps is taller than the average pro swimmer, has an unusually long upper body and short lower body, longer arms and bigger feet than a regular person of his size would have, all this giving him more pulling power and less drag in the water. His muscles produce less lactic acid than the average athlete, shortening his recovery time.
Nobody has ever called him a freak. His success is attributed to willpower and skill.
Nobody has ever called him a freak in earnest, and nobody has ever scrutinised him the way they are scrutinising every single woman who dares to be successful while not conforming to an arbitrary and ever-narrowing standard of womanhood.
You’re welcome to think so. You are not welcome to violate our community rules. Namely, rule 6:
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
And I don’t care if you don’t think it is offensive. People with that disability sure as fuck do.
Since you would like to make a bigger deal out of this than you should have, I’ll also tell you that if you violate any of our other rules, you will have to find another place to post for a while.
Oh no. I’m being told by the hall monitor that I can’t play on the Internet anymore. You really intimidated me and taught me a lesson. Thanks for that extra helping of something I won’t ever give a shit about.

I beg to differ, there were so many jokes about him.
Let me rephrase.

Most of these arguments literally just narrow down to misogyny
Misogyny with a side of racism.
I have called him a freak.
Good for you. Would you like a medal?
Yes but Michael Phelps took them all 😞
Damn that freak!
Holy fuck… do you call people with dwarfism or people with missing arms freaks too? Like they belong in a circus?

Not even remotely appropriate.
Oh no. People don’t have humor. Blah blah blah
You make all the jokes you want. Just not ones which disparage people with disabilities, are bigoted, racist, etc.
This isn’t a comedy club in the 90s. We don’t need your “edgy” humor.
Some people do! It’s just the Internet. Chill. You aren’t saving humanity by being a mod. You’re the equivalent of a hall monitor.
