SHOCKING NEWS 🚨 International Olympic Committee (IOC) says it is saddened by the abuse that the Algerian Boxer Imane is facing. SHAMEFUL ⚡- IOC allows boxer with male XY chromosomes to participate in women's event in Paris. It said "Every person has the right to practice sport without discrimination" International Boxing Association (IBA) disqualified Imane Khelif from contesting at the 2023 World Championships. Instead of the IBA, the IOC relies on the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit, an ad-hoc committee it established to set eligibility standards. What do y'all think? 🤔

She was born a girl with a genetic anomaly that means she has some XY chromosomes. She doesn’t identify as transgender or intersex. In the same way elite swimmers win the genetic lottery that gives them the physique to swim, she should be allowed to compete

Doesn't matter what he "identifies" as - he's clearly been through male puberty which confers male physical advantages. He can still compete in the men's category. Why must biological women always get the shitty end of the stick by having all these intersex and "in-betweens" gatecrash their events?

Incorrect. Has never been male. Not at birth, not ever. No male puberty ever. It’s not about how they identify, it’s literally about a genetic anomaly for someone who’s always biologically been female.
