after a rain of criticism

I'm staunchly against violence against women.

So when I see a girl getting beat up, I criticize.

I'm staunchly against violence against women.

But the sport is boxing. Women who chose to become boxers probably know it involves hitting and getting hit (and train to do more of the former and less of the latter).

So when I see a girl getting beat up, I criticize.

Khelif isn’t getting beaten up, but she is a victim of rampant misinformation.

Imane is a girl

Not according to biology

Not according to biology

There has never been any evidence presented that proves Imane has XY chromosomes. There is only one statement from one person claiming so.

Men can have vaginas?

The women who were forced to fight against Imane Khelif should sue the IOC.

If Khelif is indeed a man identifying as a woman, how would she be able to get by as a high profile athlete in Algeria (where LGBT people aren’t exactly looked kindly upon)?

Huh? One? Only one on the entire planet? Tell all of Latin America, Africa, and most parts of Asia of this craziness and see how many support this?

Men can have vaginas?

Amazing how none of this was even close to reality until 2020, after that, the world went bellyside up.

If Khelif is indeed a man identifying as a woman, how would she be able to get by as a high profile athlete in Algeria (where LGBT people aren’t exactly looked kindly upon)?

Are you trying to tell me that the IOC is not a corrupt organization? Look at what just happened with Breaking

The IOC has the power to protect LGBT people in countries where LGBT behavior is illegal? Is that how Khelif managed to avoid persecution and punishment in her own country (to where she has since returned)?

This is why more and more people are tuning out the Olympics

Biology is complicated. The article below covers some of the difficulties of separating male and female. It seems the presence of a Y chromosome is not enough to identify as a "man".

"When it comes to being male or female, what is usually crucial is a specific gene called SRY - which stands for ‘sex-determining region of the Y chromosome’"

Are you trying to tell me that Algeria was so desperate to get a gold medal in women's boxing that they were willing to ignore their cultural / legal rejection of all things remotely tangential to LGBTQ?
