Boxer Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan clinched her first Olympic medal Sunday in front of a crowd that chanted her name at the Paris Games, one day after fellow boxer Imane Khelif of Algeria secured one as well following days of online abuse and intense scrutiny about their participation.
Lin defeated Svetlana Kamenova Staneva of Bulgaria in a women’s 57-kilogram quarterfinal, earning her second straight unanimous decision and advancing to the division’s semifinal round to ensure she will win at least a bronze medal.
Lin and Khelif have been at the center of a clash over gender identity and regulations in sports, as critics have brought up their disqualification from the world championships last year after the banned International Boxing Association claimed they failed unspecified eligibility tests for women’s competition.
This is what you originally said:
You also said:
Which would require more than a chromosome test. So make up your mind.
On to your current post…
Who are “these people” exactly? Is Brittney Griner one of “these people” too? Should she also be tested down to the genetic level to prove whether or not she is, as you put it, “a real biological woman or your not?”
Okay, tough guy. You really know a lot about how weak and fragile women are, don’t you?
Dude. It’s just a blood test. A simple blood sample and you can test genes and chromosomes. What I originally said isn’t really wrong. And yes, give everyone these tests it’s fair.
And I should add. No man is doing that crap to me either. Lmao
Okay, Superman. No man can beat you in a fight and you get to decide who is a weak, fragile woman and a strong, manly man.
But the important thing is this is about your money. And if you can’t bet on women’s Olympics boxing, what’s left to bet on? Are there even other sports?
The scientific tests will decide it. You got this backwards. You are the one trying to get to decide who is and and who isn’t who based on… Intuition? Looks? Gut feeling? I merely suggested scientific tests based on our scientific reality. And it’s such a huge problem. Meanwhile we can make literal rocks think using science.
And yes I’ve been beaten once or twice if it’s a concern of yours but I wouldn’t say they walked away pain free or anything like it.
This is about much much more than me and my money. Sure it worries me but there are other implications I’m sure.
What other implications are you sure about? Because so far the only one you’ve implied is that someone could die in the ring, which happens anyway. It doesn’t even need to be because of a hard punch. It could just be contact in a place that already had damage that the boxer wasn’t even aware of.
So let’s hear the other implications.
See that’s one implication. Just because people die it means we shouldn’t do things to prevent this? That’s the second time you’ve said people die all the time anyways. It’s Like who cares people die all time why do anything to prevent needless death ??? Why even have weight classes?
How can someone think like that but then be so adent about a (imo non-existent) genocide happening in Israel? Wouldn’t you just kinda go bleh they die anyways who cares?
I’m going to be selling cars advertising them as fully self driving. They don’t actually nearly drive themselves but who cares, people die from cars everyday.
How many women have men killed in the ring? Exactly how many? Because I’m betting it’s zero. Meaning you have nothing to base that claim on.
So I’m still waiting to hear the implications.
Sounds like you aren’t satisfied until they die and beg for mercy. It can easily happen too.
So then zero, meaning you have nothing to base this claim on.
In which case, what are the implications?
