You thrust your pelvis, huh!
There’s a certain irony in you deciding what gender she is. Never mind that sort of thing is illegal in her home country.

if you think having more testosterone is insignificant, then you're being naïve
I'm not angry about her being able to compete...I'm simply saying of course it's gonna hurt more lol

When did I decide what gender she is? You can think she has an unfair advantage while still believing she’s a woman.

Felix will go for another one tomorrow. He's playing a lot of tennis this week.
Since when do we look at anything other than genitals to determine someone’s biological sex? Let me ask you this: If your kid was born with chromosomal abnormalities, but with female genitalia and reproductive organs, would you consider them a boy and enrol them in male sport programs?
This is not a black and white issue. Where does someone like Imane Khelif belong in competition if they can’t compete against men or women? Do we just ban them from all sports? It’s not like this woman is the Mike Tyson of female boxing either. She didn’t win anything in the last Olympics, so all of this outrage feels very exaggerated.

I want us to beat the US so bad. They are still blabbing about their exhibition win.

Canada beating USA would be a delicious outcome.
Didn’t the US almost lose to South Sudan? I mean it wasn’t even North Sudan.

Yah in exhibition. US beat them pretty decently when it counted though.
US is so stacked, it would take a miracle.
If a woman with too much testosterone is allowed to compete then we need to restore the record of all athletes that were using steroids that are essentially artificial steroids agasint men.
They were wrongly stolen of their wins due to a meaninglines thing. Elevated levels of testosterone with other various things.
The international sports are the ones that pushed to make a lot of cough medicines illegal for hockey and many other things so either stick to your extreme rules and be consistent. Or make a free for all category, or whatever you propose for a fair agreement.
It seems far too political to have a few specific cases being tolerated like this

Or how about we strip all of the athletes who have been proven to have biological advantages over their peers of their medals? We can introduce different categories in every sport for different weights, different heights, different lactic acid production levels, different testosterone levels, etc. I think that’s just as logical.
They haven't released the medical testing done on this athlete. But one can assume if she has a history of high testosterone, which has been reported, and her gender exam came back XY, which has been alluded to. Then she has a high likelihood of having 5ARD, which means her body is missing a protein that makes the boy parts grow. So they present as female at birth but they have the male plumbing inside and go through male puberty.
Interesting cause everything that I’ve read about it points to Swyer syndrome which indicates that she would have ovaries (or testes) that are non functioning, and female genitalia.
The more you know I guess.

Love the insanity of the middle weekend of the Olympics.
Everything is happening!

None of us know for sure. But if it was Swyer syndrome then it is very unlikely they would have been disqualified from the previous boxing events because as you said, the male parts are non functioning and they wouldn't produce the high testosterone levels. And I believe Algeria said she was originally disqualified from the boxing events because of high testosterone levels, not a failed gender test.
Khelif likely has 5-ARD (like semenya) or XY AIS.

What a touch at the wall to get it. The American was ahead of her but she timed the touch better.
