        If you didn’t read it as Transgender woman (with some kind of disability) competing in Paralynpixs" then that’s a you problem.

        The headline was to show a groundbreaking event. If she were the first black woman to compete in the Paralympics, that is what the headline would say. And no one, save maybe you, would think that meant being black was a disability.
