The Shameful Controversy Over Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif | WIRED

Seems to be its her turn to be the top of the hill in the type of field which the Olympics fields is much different than annual world championship events. .

So if the person has been medically cleared, has been competing in the same category all her life, not just now, and now the person starts to win, its time to be outraged on what grounds? first time awareness bias via social media?

Are you being fair or just being part of the headlines mob rule of everything you read on the internet is true? where was this outrage at the last Olympics?

yes part of the article is behind a paywall, for me as well, but the main points are visible after declining the subscription offer.

do you still think/feel that you aren't manipulated by news/social media? maybe Russian misinformation? 4 years of internet misinformation starting to confuse everyone?

Russian misinformation? Almost all Russians consider him a man (because he is).

What does that tell you?

It tells me that, sadly, many on here will believe Russian misinformation over credible reporting.

Like what? It's pretty clear Michael Phelps was born a male.

A male who has been beaten, multiple times, by women has no business competing in the Olympics in the first place...

They are suppose to have minimal standards and qualifying events...

And Michael Phelps has no more "physical anomalies" that any other olympic athlete... He's just better at his sport than all of them...

Not necessarily. Normally, yes. But not 100% of the time. Anomalies, mutations, etc. Ever hear the term "hermaphrodite"? 2 X is female. 1X and 1Y is male. With more then 2 chromosomes I believe that there could be a possibility of male or female extra "enhancements. In the case of boxer Imane, if "she" has 2 X and 1 Y, she would possibly be female with male related advantages/enhancements. Like naturally high testosterone. If she has1 X and 2 Y (if that is possible) my guess is a person super masculine with some female traits, but that is just a guess on my part. My opinion for competitors qualificationis based on a person with the usual/normal 2 chromosomes.

Sexist censorship? No. Vagina is the proper term for female genitalia. ***** is the proper term for male genitalia. If the proper term for male genitalia is somehow inappropriate, perhaps the moderator would be willing to explain why.

Better marketing. I heard of the Vagina Monologues but not the ***** Monologues.

The most prominent example is Tula, a super model who has Kleinfelter syndrome. Here is her story.
