According to this website called "giggeli", there are 800 terms that could be used in place of The Appendage That Shall Not Be Named.

Whatever is going on psychologically is of no concern.

If I’m wrong, would gills disqualify a swimmer? Would surgically added muscle mass disqualify a weightlifter?
it's true! no amount of surgical 'alterations' changes the fact the person was born a male. these women shouldn't even compete. by entering the ring, they are condoning the decision. a full boycott should be in order

If only biology was that simple, for example.
all you have to do is look @ him. his structure and appearance show male shoulders & waist. then take a good look @ the muscles on this guy, & tell me it's ok to compete with any size woman. it really IS insanity

So she is not attractive enough to have been born with female genitalia? She is too tall/wide/muscular to have been born with female genitalia? Your trans-dar is accurate enough to determine that countless statements that she was born female, raised female, and has always been female are flat out lies? Or is it more that the presence of female genitalia is irrelevant if one is too tall/wide/muscular/good/successful/unattractive to actually be a woman?

Perhaps the information you "heard" is wrong. Khelif has identified as female since birth, has always competed in the women’s boxing division and is listed as a woman on her passport.

She won a medal too recently at the Olympics.

And, no explanation why the term is considered offensive, or what the acceptable reference word would be considered an acceptable substitute. Makes one wonder.

You left out "too smart/intelligent".

My sister is a delivery room nurse she said some kids and born with male and female genitalia they have had a Dr remove one of them. Maybe that was her deal
Your sister who is a delivery room nurse has no idea what happens to the infant once it leaves the delivery room. Nobody gets genital surgery in the delivery room. Decisions about ambiguous genitalia are made after much discussion and evaluation and the criteria used have changed over time and will continue to change.

If you care to read on the complexities of phenotype vs genotype here is a clear explanation
