Olympics allow biological male to compete against women in boxing

People are always talking about women’s rights these days. What about women’s lefts?

To be fair, I believe it's an actual hermaphrodite so it's not exactly the typical transgender situation. Probably could have gone a better route, such as competing with the men, but I have a lot more empathy/compassion on this one.

There’s a 2nd biological male also competing in women’s boxing. I don’t think he had his first match yet though.

But both of them were DQ’d from women’s competition last year by IBA for failing a gender test. But the Olympics let them compete

South Park called this years ago

Can’t believe your post is getting downvotes. Even liberal feminist ought to be agreeing with everything you said. Until female athletes as a united group start refusing to compete, this will continue.

Not a woman then. Should be competing against males.

Explain it to me like I’m a third grader. Does this person have a dick and a set of balls or not?

Italian boxer breaks silence after abandoning Olympic bout against fighter in gender controversy

An Italian female boxer who abandoned her Paris Olympics bout against an Algerian fighter caught in the middle of a gender eligibility controversy revealed why she walked away from her match.

Angela Carini stepped into the ring on Thursday to fight Imane Khelif in a 66-kilogram fight. However, 46 seconds into the bout, Carini went to her corner to call off the match. Khelif celebrated while Carini was left in tears.

Carini was seen going to her corner twice during the fight, once to get her headgear tightened after taking a punch to the face and the other to abandon the fight.

"I went into the ring to fight," she said, via Italy’s ASNA.

"I didn't give up, but a punch hurt too much, and so I said enough. … I'm leaving with my head held high."

Khelif will move on to the next round of the women’s 66-kilogram division. However, the win comes amid a week of controversy.

The Algerian Olympian was disqualified from the 2023 World Boxing Championships after the International Boxing Association determined Khelif failed gender tests. According to Reuters, Khelif was found to have elevated levels of testosterone.

"Based on DNA tests, we identified a number of athletes who tried to trick their colleagues into posing as women. According to the results of the tests, it was proved that they have XY chromosomes. Such athletes were excluded from competition," Kremlev said.

Look at that......I fixed yet another thread!

The Olympics let them compete under the same rules that were in affect for 2016 and 2020. In fact, both athletes competed in 2020, yet no one seemed to care then.

The IBA also let both athletes compete for years before last year, when they conducted a biochemistry test on the athletes. They both failed for "medical reasons". We don't know why either failed because the IBA says those results are confidential. It's assumed they had XY chromosomes.

It is a complicated and legitimate issue. The solution is not allowing them to compete against women when their testosterone is off the charts compared to the competition. Compared to the other competitors, that is a legit performance enhancement issue. If it were a fully biological woman who tested for similar levels of testosterone she would be banned for doping.
