It's all too crazy--even for me. Here we have a man, Imane Khelif, who was once disqualified from competing as a woman because he is a man--and yet he was subsequently allowed to fight a female boxer in the 2024 Olympics, and he won the gold. What? Now, it has been revealed that Khelif has XY chromosomes and actually IS a man genetically--but one of the boxing committees has already apologized for having invaded his privacy. Apparently, in the past, all that was needed to qualify as a "woman" was being identified as such on one's passport.

Khelif was. What? Khelif's leaked DNA results confirm that he is biologically a man, not a woman. Shouldn't Imane Khelif's medal be taken away from him? Shouldn't the women boxers be allowed to compete again but this time against only women? Can they re-do the 2024 Olympics? Guess what? Khelif has also sued J.K. Rowling, the Mistress of Magic, for "cyberbullying." What level of testosterone is required to actually do something like this? Khelif was carried out on the shoulders of Algerian men. I have never seen Muslim men carry a woman around like this. Have you? And no, Khelif is not arguing that he is a transgender woman. He insists that he is a woman, always has been, was raised as a woman, identifies as such. He does not look like a woman to me. Does he look like a woman to you? Oh, and poor, shamed Italian boxer Angela Carini, whom Khelif hit so hard she fell to the floor and wept. Now she, too, is apologizing for not having shaken his hand when he was declared the winner. Here's my real question: What kind of a man wants to compete only with women? What kind of man refuses to fight other men and is determined to knock out, out run, out jump, only women?

Why don't such men (who identify as women or as transwomen) form their own league and compete against each other?
