Navy petty officer wins transgender bodybuilding contest

Competitors were judged in the categories of lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight and masters, for age 60 and over, according to five disciplines: mass, definition, proportion, symmetry and stage presence.
I thought the Navy was all about the water.
It’s been 20 years since Charles Bennett took the stage to compete in bodybuilding. But at the age of 63, he’s now done something he’s never done before — compete as a man for the first time in what’s billed as the world’s only transgender bodybuilding competition.
Bennett and seven fellow competitors went before a crowd Saturday evening in the annual International Association of Trans Bodybuilders competition at a theater in Atlanta.
The competition has attracted bodybuilders from across the country and even Russia since it began in 2014, according to executive director and head judge Bucky Motter.
Competitors were judged in the categories of lightweight, middleweight, heavyweight and masters, for age 60 and over, according to five disciplines: mass, definition, proportion, symmetry and stage presence.
Bennett had the most experience of those on stage, and saw his role as more coach than competitor, helping others practice their poses backstage. He also offered diet tips, shared his preshow rituals and helped Peter Moore of Oakland, California, apply fake tan, his hand running over the scars where Moore had his breasts removed when he transitioned to male two years ago.
Go Navy !

Lola…L-O-L-A…..Lola.
Does that song bring back some “special memories” for you, IDC SARC? (smile)
um………ew, not my beverage of choice
I read it twice and still can’t tell what name goes to who and what direction the transfer was. And wtf does this have to do with the Navy?
I’m not reading it again.
Unless one of them is a SEAL.
“If you like adventure, don’t you wait to enter
The recruiting office fast
Don’t you hesitate, there is no need to wait
They’re signing up new seamen fast…
Come on people, fall an’ make a stand
In the navy, in the navy
Can’t you see we need a hand”

In the Navy, sperm you will sneeze
Well wasn’t to inclined to eat breakfast this morning, now this picture kinda makes me wonder if I’ll even eat lunch.
…a month from now.
Its not gay if its under way?
“It’s only queer when you’re at the pier!”
Ha!
Someone said dude was so gay he liked dick sandwiches, but I defended him and told everyone he doesn’t even like bread!
I think “competitor” Peter Moore is actually Peter Less
Dont care who you are, that was funny right there.
Maybe it’s actually “wants more Peter”
OMG! I need a day or two or three to comment further.
Okay, I’m ready to comment.
I personally cannot imagine dating an “it” with saggy boobs and a bulge in its pants.
Cmon, that “man-hammock” is sexy!
Kinda makes you wonder to whom such would appeal. No, No, NO – I really don’t want to know.
I need to sue someone for that pic.
Damn near more awards than competitors.
If those are men, then take off the sports bra and the tape and show those man nipples.
Fucking FREAKSHOW!
And who are the self hating losers standing up there smiling beside these things.
Oh never mind…. I thought the other two in the picture were actually males. Then I read this…..
“He also offered diet tips, shared his preshow rituals and helped Peter Moore of Oakland, California, apply fake tan, his hand running over the scars where Moore had his breasts removed when he transitioned to male two years ago.”
They certainly appear to be in top physical condition.
Coffee spew!!! Thanks alot.
They call that “peak ab size light in density” in the trade. You gotta eat a few happy meals to get there but in the end the results speak for themselves.
Which one is the guy with the beer belly on the right of the black guy… er, person?
That’s the one who the black it helped apply fake tan “……..his hand running over the scars where Moore had his breasts removed when he transitioned to male two years ago.”
Saw this weirdness yesterday, and I knew Dave just couldn’t pass it up.
Thanks, Dave.
*sigh*
Regardless of what took place here, right minded people see these freaks as confused tools of the Democrats and the left in general, God won’t be confused on judgment day.
How sad is this?
Thanks for helping with my diet Dave, I just lost my appetite. What freaks.
Suck it up buttercups: here is a wee bit of music while you read the post and thread.

Aside from the black dude, this looks more like a dad-bod competition. Looking at the pic, I feel like I could have won something if I had shaved and tucked my privates between my legs, and I basically look like Hank Hill! Trans or not, nobody is impressed by a spray-tanned flabby belly.
Well it is a brave new world after all…
Gives a new meaning to a countersunk sailor.
I’m guessing the foundation of this is actually a cost saving measure. I’m thinking the Navy will reap a windfall by changing the “seaman” rating to “semen” thereby saving all that ink and sewing thread previously used to print the “a”.
“Transgender bodybuilding competition”
So that’s a thing now. It really is no wonder most of the world hates us.
I’m soooo confused… but LMFAO at all the comments.
When someone figures this shit out, please let the rest of us know WTF…
Bizzar-o.
There was a “pride” festival in my local town this past weekend…had another reason to be downtown and it was pretty much this photograph x 100. I was on a historic city center tour and we ploughed right through it…linebackers preening in sundresses and heels, talentless gender confused belly dancers stomping about, fat dykes flitting here and there in showy rainbow capes and some even sporting fairy wands, lots of inappropriate “affection” on display, copious AIDS awareness paraphernalia, an advertised “safe place” at a local coffee shop and a host of other downtown establishments enthusiastically marketing their pride or surely facing boycotts, awful online reviews and bad press from the carpetbagging local paper…all ironically under the banner “love is love”
I’m guessing that diet and cardio were not required for most of the competitors? Arnold’s legacy is safe!
Yeah, fine, fuck him/her/it.
If this is the end result of getting old in the NAVY, God I am glad that I joined the ARMY. All I came away with was P.T.S.D. and a few scares where I hadn’t ducked quick enough.
No words… Except that I am soooo happy that I retired in 2005.
You should put warnings for posts like these.
Sort of made me want to puke. Then I felt sorry for these totally messed up people. They are very conflicted and the pics are hiding their despair and unchanged suicide risk. An on stage display of the end result of misguided surgical treatment for a mental disorder (gender dysphoria). A return to the pre frontal lobotomy era.
