Also the boxer isn’t even trans. The article says she grew up female and her parents discouraged her from getting into boxing as a kid because it was seen as a masculine sport. It seems like she only discovered she has a Y chromosome once she joined a boxing league that checked the chromosomes of boxers. The Olympics don’t have rules regarding chromosomes of athletes so she’s allowed to compete.

people who justify men beating up women simply don't belong in civilized society. outside of election results that beggar belief, it's easy to just decide these shills aren't real - like the bots we see that forget to change the language, or the paid astroturf accounts.
OMG did you hear about project 2025? women will be men's property? uh, no, you're thinking of the olympics. the opening ceremony was mentall illness, this is just more of hte same.
@ImplyingImplications @originalfrozenbanana Finally, somebody here is getting to the root of the discussion.
Does #ImaneKhelif have a Y chromosome? Maybe she is #intersex or something. At first I thought she just might have above average #testosterone or was juicing.
I am no fan of men competing against women but I feel like if she was #trans, she would have either said something about it, or someone from her past would have.

Saying “He’s not even trans, he’s just a regular dude punching women” is a helluva take

sometimes, god is a filthy, godless liberal and makes non-binary people. It’s advanced biology.

We agree with each other? He’s either a man or intersex. He shouldn’t be competing in women’s sports.

Huh? I said she was born female and is female. She’s cis. She’s a woman from birth.

Anyone born with a Y chromosome is a man or intersex. He didn’t know he was a man/intersex until later in life, but that absolutely refutes “born female”, “is female”, “she’s cis”, and “woman from birth”. He should not be in women’s sports.

Kinda weird you’re saying someone born with a vagina is a man but alright.
