A leaked French medical report from 2023 has confirmed that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif is male.

Top endocrinologists found that Khelif has XY chromosomes, no uterus, internal testicles, and a "micropenis."

The report was drafted in June of 2023 via a collaboration between the Kremlin-Bicêtre hospital in Paris, France, and the Mohamed Lamine Debaghine hospital in Algiers, Algeria. Drafted by expert endocrinologists Soumaya Fedala and Jacques Young, the report reveals that Khelif is impacted by 5-alpha reductase deficiency, a disorder of sexual development that is only found in biological males.

This was obvious to anyone who was paying attention.

The Olympic standard for checking your sex, if I understand correctly, was just whatever was in your passport.

This is probably too simplistic, given the risk of situations like the above.

Sad for everyone involved really - these sports bodies need to actually take some responsibility if they want to be taken seriously.

Having being punched in the face by an average height and weight woman and having being punched in the face by a 6 foot 3, lean man I can tell you I'm not surprised at all by this. Only one of them gave me a black eye and broke my jaw and it wasn't the average woman.

Her opponent in the Olympics quit the fight because she knew what would cause her significant harm and I don't for a minute think it was based on prejudice, but a sensible measure for self preservation.

Just because he has a micropenis does not entitle him to beat up women and steal their sports prizes. Surely they will strip him of the medal he wrongly received now.

No shit Sherlock

No surprise there. The way he punched that woman still makes me shudder.

He needs to give his gold medals back. The IOC should be ashamed and apologise to all those women who got brutally punched by a man in the boxing ring.
