JamieD 20,023 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 16 minutes ago, Blue Nosed Babe said: I have been reading many reports and listening to females in sport and boxers. Fact is they either did not appeal the test results to CAS or abandon them. The IOC could have tested all female boxers but chose to throw them and the questionable male fighters under the bus. What do they have to hide if they are normal women with hormones etc in the female range? I don't know how many times it needs to be said that by the IBA's own claims, the tests simply showed, allegedly, that they have XY chromosomes, something you have conceded some women have. So why are you stating as fact what can only be supposition, that these are not among those women who have XY chromosomes? "Females in sport and boxers" know no more about these two cases than you or I or anybody else do. There's completely equal opportunities criticism of everyone who is full of shit here. You're full of shit, Sean Ingle is full of shit, and Ross Tucker is full of shit, because none of you know the crucial determining facts of these specific cases yet, but you've decided to frame the story as "cheating man batters woman". I won't insult you as a woman by pretending I think it gives you a license to talk rubbish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole story blew up because of the mad sensationalist reporting of a male Guardian sportswriter obsessed with trans women, what are you talking about? Among the few people sticking their neck out to defend Khelif are women who have actually fought her. Including, now, Carini.

blaudrup 6,214 Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I thought WBC featherweight champion Skye Nicolson made the point well, and she knows them: "I’ve actually fought and sparred both of the girls. They were born female. They were born with an XY chromosome, which is the male chromosome, but they were born with female bodies, they have the physical attributes of a female. "They have grown up as girls, as females, as women. They have competed as women the whole time. These are not naturally born men who have decided to call themselves women or identify as women to fight women in the Olympics. “And while it is a bit of a grey area, I think the abuse and the power of the media, and people just jumping on the bandwagon without knowing all the details, is honestly horrible. “These girls have represented their country on numerous occasions for many, many years now as female fighters, and they do not deserve this mistreatment. I think they have been so unfortunate to even be in the situation that they’re in and to get all this scrutiny as well" Nicolson said that if it was so dangerous for women to be squaring off against Lin and Khelif, they would not have been routinely beaten by women throughout their careers and would be winning every event they entered. "I feel like that says it all" She also took aim at Carini, who has since offered Khelif an apology for her conduct and admitted she was merely “angry” because she had ended her run at the Olympics. “I feel like the thing that happened with the Italian girl was a publicity stunt more than anything,” Nicolson said. “I just think people really need to, like, look at the facts and stop jumping on the bandwagon."

Definitely agree with the mistreatment comments and the belief that many news reporters have jumped the gun based on supposition on this story. But heading down the 'it can't be that much of an advantage or else she would never have been beaten' is a slippery slope to head down for quite a few reasons.
