We Now Have Answers About Testing Done on Olympic Boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-Ting
https://redstate.com ^ | 8/5/2024 | Jennifer Van Laar

Algerian boxer Imane Khelif gave an interview Sunday night urging folks to not bully Olympic athletes online, but her compassion was completely misplaced - it focused solely on her, not the women she and fellow alleged XY-chromosome holder Lin Yu-Ting have physically bullied over the past week, women whose lifelong dreams were shattered.

In an AP article headlined, "Olympic boxer Imane Khelif calls for end to bullying after backlash over gender misconceptions," Khelif is quoted as saying:

“I send a message to all the people of the world to uphold the Olympic principles and the Olympic Charter, to refrain from bullying all athletes, because this has effects, massive effects. It can destroy people, it can kill people’s thoughts, spirit and mind. It can divide people. And because of that, I ask them to refrain from bullying."

Perhaps if the International Olympic Committee (IOC) had been more forthcoming about what testing has been done and why there's a difference between IOC's qualifications and those of the International Boxing Association (IBA), the sport's worldwide governing body, and about what genetic disorder, if any, Khelif and Lin have, there wouldn't be misconceptions. And perhaps if Khelif had been more forthcoming about any medical/genetic disorder she has, there wouldn't be misconceptions. While Khelif was happy to prattle on about bullying and feelings, she hushed right up when asked what tests she had taken:

Khelif declined to answer when asked whether she had undergone tests other than doping tests, saying she didn’t want to talk about it.

I send a message to all the people of the world to uphold science, to refrain from total stupidity, and stop calling these two guys “she”.

This could explain why she may have been identified as female at birth.

No, experts say too masculine. Look up Caster semenya. He is XY 5 -ARD as disclosed in the CAS appeal.

Oh boy…the IOC is blaming RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA for the IBA excluding Male (XY) boxers from beating on female (XX) boxers. Does this sound familiar?

Algeria going to have egg on their face on this. they have strict laws about Trans issues.

Dude is a Dude. Living as a woman. Participating in sports as a woman. In essence, that makes him trans.

HE has an excuse prior to finding out he is XY via science. Now he has no excuse.

Go get another test if you don’t believe the one from India and Turkey.

Refrain from bullying, but beating up on a girl is okay. That doesn’t seem very principled, either.
