        I read it. The article never states that. Both boxers were tested and found eligible to fight before the tournament. Hours before Khelif’s championship bout against a Chinese boxer she was found ineligible. The IBA is corrupt top to bottom, from the refs to the president. “The public can read between the lines”. That’s a credible statement? The IBA is a credible source? It’s an unsubstantiated allegation. There is no credible evidence

            Is that even the right measure? If a woman born with XY chromosomes can have a uterus and give birth naturally, what use is it?

            She tested within normal testosterone levels for a woman which is significantly lower than the range for men. 15-70 vs 300-1000 ng/dL

              There are also women who have XY chromosomes, but they don’t have receptors for testosterone. They can even have very high levels of testosterone but it doesn’t do anything, why wouldn’t they be able to compete as women?

              And why would having an uterus and being able to give birth naturally even matter? Are infertile humans not allowed to compete in the Olympics?

                I think you misread the post, which is about whether XY chromosomes even matter as a measure.

            Man, you’re really invested in this. None, cause I’m not a gross weirdo.

                Show me your genitals. Since you’re so worried about someone else’s. Let’s inspect for the ability to comment further on this topic?

                No, I’m just not taking your bait. Here’s how that would go “fine, I’ll bet 3k” you: “great, put your money where your mouth is an bet me”. You have done nothing in good faith with anyone this while thread. It’s not about my confidence, it’s about my mistrust of YOU. And just your weird obsession with this. She doesn’t look the way YOU think a woman should so you believe this bs. You’re fucking gross. You’re fucking weird and I don’t want to be associated with you through a bet. Get a hobby. Get a life you weird loser.
