Heard on an episode of /Would I Lie to You/.

He's so posh, his butler was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

We used to have a politician of whom it was said that he was born with a
silver foot in his mouth.

That one stood out from the rest with his patrician manners and accent.
He was clearly from the right side of the tracks. If he had managed to
keep his mouth shut he would have given a good impression.

Women's sports only, or are you also worried about twats pretending
they're men?

Aha, he was in the middle of the Venn diagram of "silver thing in
mouth" & "foot in mouth".

I'm trying to think of an example of a twat claiming
she's a man in order to compete in men-only events/ play
in male teams.

I couldn't think of one (outside myth and legend), which is why I was
surprised that you said they'd /all/ perform stark naked.

However, Wikipedia mentions Chris Mosier, an American in men's
racewalking and duathlon (run-cycle-run, for anyone who was wondering,
as I was), and Mack Beggs, who was the undefeated Texas state high
school boys' wrestling champion in his weight class, possibly due
to the testosterone he was taking.

Beggs was the state champion in *girls* wrestling,
competing against girls not boys. See

Wow, I completely misread--to a disturbing extent--the article I
looked at.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender_people_in_sports

Thanks for the correction. I see at the article you cited that Beggs
did also participate in boys' tournaments.
