Just reading the thread on here for the first time. What I fail to understand is why so many contributors are so desperate for her to be a man. Someone who has lived their entire life as a woman. Beggars belief.

The tests mean nothing some biological women have more testosterone than oestrogen. It doesn't mean she is a man.

Nah he’s a man just like caster semanya is

Theeyeballsinthesky · 14/08/2024 21:28

I’m sure you actually have evidence of this

as for the other nonsense, what had that got to do with anything?

Edited

Nobody has any evidence of anything that is available publically. Everything on this thread, and in the media, has been speculation.

They really did.

Has the bat signal gone out tonight?

It would seem so. There are plenty of batty posts on this thread.

The IBA tests are not speculation.

Fuck. Did you actually post this without a thought? Do you even understand the health condition that you are posting about vs a male being born with a difference of sex development? Your post is offensive.

and the thing is Hellebore they’re probably absolutely clueless at just how offensive it is

Why you asking me for? Ask this poster Theeyeballsinthesky it's the very first post after the op. If you get an answer let me know.

You’re being asked because you implied it was a ridiculous question and said “we must be so stupid that we have no idea”

since the answer is so easy, please tell. Because I have no idea

I believe that there is no reason to ignore the two tests done and analysed by two independent labs for the IBA. A medical doctor with the speciality of being a Gynecologist confirmed this.

Statements from not only the IBA, but also WBC and EBC have made the same statements. Including the all important statement that this athlete has male pubertal advantage.

You can personally choose to deny all this. And the coach in Paris. But you are trying to fit female health conditions to a male person. You declare it is ludicrous to point out that a male who didn’t start intense sport until 17 would not be impacted by activity delayed menstruation. Yeah, I don’t think so. I think you are desperately reaching for reasons in light of what you are actively dismissing.

Ok well you are using false logic so it's hard to give credence to anything else you have to say in the light of that.

You say about my post: "You declare it is ludicrous to point out that a male who didn’t start intense sport until 17 would not be impacted by activity delayed menstruation"

Of course that is untrue, I said nothing of the sort.

I said there are multiple reasons a person may experience different puberty, and multiple reasons they may not be aware of what a typical puberty is.

If you want to misrepresent other posters so transparently that is up to you.

But you should understand everyone will give little credibility to anything else you have to say in the light of that.

You'd have to ask her to lift up her dress to "see the evidence"...

Can't be Swyers.

People with Swyers do not experience puberty, don't have male range testosterone, & have comorbid risks of bone density issues which would certainly rule out elite competitive sports.

The semenya line is what he was required to reduce to in order to complete. Actual level was 21

You lot are horrible bullies and should be ashamed of yourselves. I am truly disgusted

Well that's us told off.
Khelif is the bully for being a man punching women.

Please show me exactly where I have called Khelif ‘a man’.

Disgust, eh? The melodrama and hyperbole is just as strong as your false accusation.

CA was foolish enough to take the IOC to court. This meant that all his medical records were disclosed. CS has 46 XY 5-ARD (5-alpha-reductase deficiency). People with this particular DSD have the male XY chromosomes. Only men can have this DSD. CS is male

now who’s clueless?

So you didn’t say, involvement in sport to an excessive degree etc?

Gosh. Did I copy and paste incorrectly then?

I’m pretty sure she had no idea she was ‘male’. She was born with a vulva/vagina and and went through normal female puberty and was obviously very good at her sport. It’s possible some ‘non traditional’ women on here might not realise they are xy. Are you now men?

Are you saying Khelif menstruates , has developed breasts and a female body shape with wider hips? Because that’s what happens in a normal female puberty.

In male puberty height, arm reach and muscle strength increases, a chest develops, a deeper voice happens, facial features become more angular., with a pronounced jaw and Adam’s apple.

When I look at pictures of Khelif I am pretty sure I know which puberty they went through.

You have extrapolated an incorrect conclusion from my premises.

You should be able to grasp that from my previous post.

If you are unable to, I don't think I can help you further.

NewGreenDuck · 14/08/2024 21:41

I think a person who has just won a gold medal in boxing really doesn't need protecting. What they do need to do is actually take a DNA test, because this will run and run. And if this boxer is going to sue X ( formerly Twitter) then I hope they have to prove by that means their actual biological sex. Because telling the truth is not libel.
