Bottom Line

The only purported evidence for the claim that Khelif is trans comes from an undisclosed test performed by an allegedly corrupt sports governing body that may have shown she has a DSD condition. The IOC has said Khelif meets its requirements for participation, with Adams, the IOC spokesman, specifically clarifying, “This is not a transgender issue.”

Because Khelif is not transgender, claims attempting to make her victory against Carini an issue about transgender rights or “woke” politics are without basis.

    They already have been “tested” and passed.

    Interesting how you want to draw a hard line around something with extremely fuzzy borders, almost like you want to control the world instead of understand it…

      Are you saying that the IOC tested the testosterone levels of these athletes? That’s not something I have read anywhere else. Do you have a link?

      The hard line is between athletes who are allowed to compete in the women’s games and athletes who aren’t. There’s no possibility of fuzziness there.

        “… no possibility of fuzziness there.”

        … and yet you ask ME to provide the proof. Just move along bigot. At least if you value your life.
