INTERVIEW EXCLUSIVE. La boxeuse algérienne, malmenée par une polémique sur son genre, s’est entraînée durant des mois avec les Jeux en ligne de mire. Confidences de son préparateur.
Now that it’s official, hopefully mods will stop banning accounts that point out the obvious for “misinformation”
You making assumptions about “what this is” mean jack shit to everyone else. You are starting from an assumption that if she is intersex she is the opposite gender of what she presents as, why? Based on the many other articles I’ve read she at most has elevated XY chromosomes, but still within range of female norms.
Bitching about unfair advantages? If some people having elevated XY chromosomes is “unfair” I have bad news for you, men can have different levels of it too. Michael Phelps has several genetic abnormalities which make him an amazing swimmer, since those are not the norm should he be disqualified?
What in the world do you mean by “elevated XY chromosomes”? Do you mean testosterone?
Michael Phelps is a person that went through male puberty competing against other people that did too. It is completely different and unfair to force women to fight and compete against people with XY chromosomes that went through male puberty. Michael Phelps has had all of his records subsequently broken by other men. Women will never win competitions against or break records set by people with XY chromosomes.
So you are also discovering for the first time that both genders have testosterone in their system?
And you are again making statements not based in fact, she did not go through “male puberty”. You are blatantly pushing a narrative with no regard for facts.
I’m well aware of that fact. I think you misunderstand something. Someone can have “elevated testosterone”, but “elevated XY chromosomes” as you used it doesn’t make sense. Are you confusing XY chromosomes and testosterone?

So you didn’t bother reading my first comment, got it.
