Bottom Line

The only purported evidence for the claim that Khelif is trans comes from an undisclosed test performed by an allegedly corrupt sports governing body that may have shown she has a DSD condition. The IOC has said Khelif meets its requirements for participation, with Adams, the IOC spokesman, specifically clarifying, “This is not a transgender issue.”

Because Khelif is not transgender, claims attempting to make her victory against Carini an issue about transgender rights or “woke” politics are without basis.

    Then you surely agree that we should be questioning their integrity in this matter, right?

    Also consider there have been no other transgender-related controversies around these olympics except for the two initiated by the IBA.

      The tests and results are confidential for a reason.

      The whole idea of a conspiracy to affect one boxer in the woman’s category doesn’t make sense.

        except where IBA is involved… hmm…

        The whole idea of a conspiracy to affect one boxer in the woman’s category doesn’t make sense.

        TWO boxers. please explain your reasoning, you can’t just assert something like that with nothing to back it up. you’re just being a denialist.

            IOC has evidence and banned them. That is evidence.

                and what evidence do you have that these women are transgender?

                  I never said they were transgender.

                  My sin for all of this vomit is that I dared to suggest that women’s sport might have an issue with individuals with dsd and it’s not sensible to pretend that it doesn’t exist.

                  That’s all.

                    I never said they were transgender.

                    yet you are sure IBA can be believed when they say they are transegender. why is that?

                    My sin for all of this vomit is that I dared to suggest that women’s sport might have an issue with individuals with dsd and it’s not sensible to pretend that it doesn’t exist.

                    you literally asked, “Why start with some conspiracy theory?”

                    And I answered. IOC and US authorities have evidence that IBA can’t be trusted to govern the sport, and IOC says these women are fit to compete.

                    I never said they were transgender.
