So refreshing, no dancing around the issue

The concerns of these women also seem to be of little concern to van Leuven. To put it mildly. Speaking to Dutch outlet NU this week, he lashed out at the ‘conservative, toxic bitches’ who have criticised him for competing in women’s events.

He also seems to be under the impression that the fact that he is a man has nothing to do with his sporting success. ‘I throw well now because I feel more comfortable’, he told NU. ‘It’s a matter of putting money and hours into it. Not many women do that, but I do.’ So those dreadful ‘bitches’ who don’t want to compete against him are lazy, as well as toxic and conservative, it seems.
