a lot of the most woke are the very same women getting a raw deal in this, so even though I am totally against transwomen competing in sports set aside for women, there is indeed a slight satisfaction in knowing this


Except she’s not a trans woman? Just a woman. Born with a vagina.

Is everyone’s brain broken?

If the past day and a half has proved anything, it is that “gender critical” people are in fact, stupid as f***.

Been reading a little about this. Imane Khelif Was born female. She has not failed any IOC tests. Can someone tell me why she should not compete as a woman?

The answer apparently is no. No one here can explain why Khelif is not a legitimate female boxer. Just culture war BS. You know, in spite of her recent 46 second win she’s not known as a dominant fighter or devastating puncher. She’s lost plenty of fights.

What raw deal
I'm ok with transgenders in scholastic sports
Scholastic sports should be about exercise and participation
Not ok in the Olympics
I follow the Olympics closely
Women boxers are awesome
But
They got nothing on Womens Rugby sevens
Those women go into beast mode
What satisfaction are you referring to Odious?
No transgenders in the Olympics.
Why are people upset?
Weird

The retarded ex-President has weighed in.

Trump will believe anything the Russians say
Of course this smear came out of Russia
Of course Russia not allowed to compete in the Olympics
But
If Russia says its true, Trump will believe it

Former President Donald Trump jumped on Khelif's win at the Olympics to further his campaign promise, posting a video of the fight on social media "I WILL KEEP MEN OUT OF WOMEN'S SPORTS!"

Trump's running mate JD Vance shared a video of the match on X, falsely calling Khelif a man and suggesting Kamala Harris' stance on gender leads to a "disgusting," outcome.


WTF
Trump and Vance are such intellectual lightweights, they call a woman a man.
Don't need Lionel for this one lol

One of the few times I agree with Bob. Gender should play no part in sports. Let everyone compete against everyone to see who the best is.


Exactly, let everybody compete against everybody and the men will win just like God intended.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Let’s say Khelif, at an early age, chose to live as a man due to his/her chromosomes being XY. Should he/she now be disqualified from women’s events? Point being, can ANY individual just say what their gender is for Olympic qualification? Or should we ‘follow the science’.
XY = male
XX = female
