UN SR VAWG Reem Alsalem has added her voice on X:
"Very concerned about these statements by the IOC at #Paris2024. There are multiple international treaties and national constitutions that specifically refer to #women and their fundamental rights to equality and non-discrimination, so the world has a pretty good idea of what women -and men for that matter- are. Also, how can one assess whether fairness and justice has been reached if we do not know who we are being fair and just to?"

Everyone involved in this travesty should be utterly ashamed.

khalif looks so much bigger at the same weight (assuming that she hasn't been allowed to identify into that category). i guess it's just the body fat percentages.

'coasting to Olympic gold'

get fucked.

the commentator is a fucking disgrace

Fuck off you fucking moron

the best man won, I guess.

Feeling sick with anger. The gloating of the commentators

The commentators are gross. Making history all right.

A farce and a disgrace.

This was so obviously going to happen. A 25 year old male is pretty much at the peak of physical strength and stamina. Even the most talented female boxers don't stand a chance.

This whole debacle has been a disgusting, corrupt, misogynistic farce.

I am just in disbelief that anyone can say that he is a woman. A Man Khalif.

slightly poor form by the Chinese woman imo, the handshake etc really wasn't merited. and no xx sign.

He was dancing around at the end, goading his opponent, shuffling his feet, like an exhibition bout. Absolutely sickening behaviour.

Great Freudian slip (or intentional) by The Telegraph.

A very big right hand.

Look at all that testosterone fuelled aggression. That is not a woman.

I had a look at the medal table earlier, Algeria were way down, they will leapfrog up to the top 30.

Yes, shame on her not having great long man-arms.
And the commentators keep going on about the first female Algerian winner. Jesus fucking Christ. They so much prefer watching men. With every rhapsody for Khelif, people show they know he's male.

BBC viewers are not as supportive as commentators.

That's so true. So many sexist men getting off on this.

And the commentators keep going on about the first female Algerian winner.

It's vile. Misogynistic gaslighting wankers.

Absolutely disgusting, arrogant, ugly post "victory" performance from Khelif. How anyone can look at that and see a poor victimised woman fuck knows.

Switched iPlayer off and back to bbc1, and Dan roan is on here too! 🙂

Paraphrased "this win will ignite more controversy rather than quell it". You're not wrong, Dan.

They don't. They just enjoy the actual women being victimised.

I am so unbelievably angry about this , it's tainted the whole Olympics for me. It's just disgusting misogynistic bullshit and I cannot believe the IoC are still defending their shitty shitty decision making. 😡
