How in hell did this board get overrun with so many a$$holes??Thanks for the validation. Knowing that you don't agree with me usually means I'm right.

Can we get some of you libs to come out of your HBOT rats nest and explain here rationally how this is a good idea?
Nonsense. Born a biological girl, similar to intersex Olympian Caster Semenya.I stand with Angela Carini.
Liberals stand with the XY Chromosome having, formerly testicles having, blood tests registering as male.
Vote accordingly.
Nonsense. Born a biological girl, similar to intersex Olympian Caster Semenya.
ok, I can't post links for some reason, but this isn't the first case of people with screwed up biology being let in the games.
she was not dipshitShe was also born with testies.
You fashion yourself as an expert on all things gender related when really all you have going for you is a stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.You seem confused, XY chromosomes is not a biological female. Either don’t know what you are talking about or a simple liar.
So do we test for men who produce more testosterone than other men and prohibit them?It probably does. I think in the current atmosphere it’s something the IOC will need to investigate and make a determination.

I doubt they make this statement unless they realize that they effed up somewhere along the way.FYI the IOC and the boxing committee just put out a joint statement saying they need to come together to make unified rules.
Probably should have figured that our before now. You know since I can't go a day without hearing about trans rights since 2020.
That is quite a last name.Who this guy?
When all the Noles came in?How in hell did this board get overrun with so many a$$holes??
That is... unfortunate.That is quite a last name.
O holy shit.... well done!That is quite a last name.
I think Huey is the only one you'll get on here who has supported it.
He's as nuts on the subject as you are about vaccines. Screw is loose, just a different one.
The thing with abortion…it DOES NOT happen after a certain point unless there’s something wrong with the fetus or the mother’s health could be in danger. Women DO NOT walk into a clinic at 7 months saying they changed their mind. It’s a bullshit Republican narrative like “partial birth” and “up to the due date”. It’s effing nonsense.It’s not a good idea.
It’s one of those things that I think people sort of lose their minds about.
Trans people are under fire in many ways and so I think there is a tendency to really dig in your heels and defend everything, even when it just doesn’t make sense like this.
I’ll compare it to abortion. It makes sense in a lot of cases. JMO it shouldn’t be happening after a certain point, where that is can be up for debate but once we start getting past the first trimester I think it’s getting pretty gruesome.
What are your thoughts on the rising costs of daycare for families? How are single moms supposed to be able to afford this and work? Should daycare be raising the child? How about the homeless? There’s millions of them. Any thoughts on how to end that or are we going to focus, again, on something that affects what…a quarter of a percent of the population?

Why don’t you hire all the illegals to watch your kids? Homeless equals illegals, that’s a Dem issue as they created the problem.What are your thoughts on the rising costs of daycare for families?

Be better.Other than a comment from the IBA, is there proof this person took a test that showed an XY chromosome?
If the IBA would release the test results it seems it would be easy to wrap up this controversy.
I'd be for that. It'd level the field for those of us with limited ability. I wonder what LeBron's testosterone level is. 🤔So do we test for men who produce more testosterone than other men and prohibit them?
Morrison,You know it’s bad when the IOC are the good guys.
Every person has the right to practise sport without discrimination.
All athletes participating in the boxing tournament of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 comply with the competition’s eligibility and entry regulations, as well as all applicable medical regulations set by the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit (PBU) (please find all applicable rules here). As with previous Olympic boxing competitions, the gender and age of the athletes are based on their passport.
These rules also applied during the qualification period, including the boxing tournaments of the 2023 European Games, Asian Games, Pan American Games and Pacific Games, the ad hoc 2023 African qualifying tournament in Dakar (SEN) and two world qualifying tournaments held in Busto Arsizio (ITA) and Bangkok (THA) in 2024, which involved a total of 1,471 different boxers from 172 National Olympic Committees (NOCs), the Boxing Refugee Team and Individual Neutral Athletes, and featured over 2,000 qualification bouts.
The PBU used the Tokyo 2020 boxing rules as a baseline to develop its regulations for Paris 2024. This was to minimise the impact on athletes’ preparations and guarantee consistency between Olympic Games. These Tokyo 2020 rules were based on the post-Rio 2016 rules, which were in place before the suspension of the boxing International Federation by the IOC in 2019 and the subsequent withdrawal of its recognition in 2023.
We have seen in reports misleading information about two female athletes competing at the Olympic Games Paris 2024. The two athletes have been competing in international boxing competitions for many years in the women’s category, including the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, International Boxing Association (IBA) World Championships and IBA-sanctioned tournaments.
These two athletes were the victims of a sudden and arbitrary decision by the IBA. Towards the end of the IBA World Championships in 2023, they were suddenly disqualified without any due process.
According to the IBA minutes available on their website, this decision was initially taken solely by the IBA Secretary General and CEO. The IBA Board only ratified it afterwards and only subsequently requested that a procedure to follow in similar cases in the future be established and reflected in the IBA Regulations. The minutes also say that the IBA should “establish a clear procedure on gender testing”.
The current aggression against these two athletes is based entirely on this arbitrary decision, which was taken without any proper procedure – especially considering that these athletes had been competing in top-level competition for many years.
Such an approach is contrary to good governance.
Eligibility rules should not be changed during ongoing competition, and any rule change must follow appropriate processes and should be based on scientific evidence.
The IOC is committed to protecting the human rights of all athletes participating in the Olympic Games as per the Olympic Charter, the IOC Code of Ethics and the IOC Strategic Framework on Human Rights. The IOC is saddened by the abuse that the two athletes are currently receiving.
The IBA’s recognition was withdrawn by the IOC in 2023 following its suspension in 2019. The withdrawal of recognition was confirmed by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). See the IOC’s statement following the ruling.
The IOC has made it clear that it needs National Boxing Federations to reach a consensus around a new International Federation in order for boxing to be included on the sports programme of the Olympic Games LA28.
Still out there looking for testicles WDT?Be better.
Shouldn't conservatives be supporting the athlete in question? She was born with a vagina and a uterus and was raised as a girl and then a woman. Isn't that their prerequisites?
You said she was born with testicles. I've seen nothing to that effect.Excuse me?
Be better.
One moment..You said she was born with testicles. I've seen nothing to that effect.
That is an Olympic Gold winning champion.Morrison,
This is a dude:
I didn't go find some super masculine photo. That is her, today. Now look at her competition and notice the extreme difference in masculinity between two people competing at the same weight class for a world championship.
I've seen MMA women that make her look like TinkerbellMorrison,

I watched a man beat up a woman and then get a gold.medal but I'm sure I'm the weird one for saying that's ****ed.That is an Olympic Gold winning champion.
She is a biological woman with Hyperandrogenism, which creates elevated testosterone levels, which people mistake for her being a trans woman.
But keep being weird and caring about what genitals people have, to make you feel better about the political party you care about.
Ummm that's the very essence of manhood. Follow the science, you can shave your legs, you can paint your nails, you can chop off appendages, but you can't change those chromosomesIt appears was born with an X and Y chromosome without more information that is likely why she failed a test, even though in every other sense she is all woman. So continue to be a dumbass please.
Prove it, at that weight class.I've seen MMA women that make her look like Tinkerbell
