Everyone has testosterone, it's just that men as a rule have quite a lot more. Also you were the one who said you were confused (or, at least, that you found it confusing). Also, people comparing the current right and left wings who say they have no political reasoning in my experience usually do, and it's quite far to the right.

So you are saying she didn't fail the test to box in the Olympics in 2024?
Everyone has testerone in their body. Literally every woman.
XY chromosome doesn't = male. By the way, do you have a link for that info. I have seen people say she had XY chromosome but can't actually find any proof anywhere. Again, having XY chromosome doesn't make a person a male.
You really should read about intersex people. I had never heard of it until this thread and I read about it. Interesting. 1 in 100 Americans are intersex and 2% of the world population. (I had heard of hermaphrodites when I was a kid but never heard of intersex which is similar but not the same)
Bottom line. Not a male. Not trans. Didn't break any rules. Gets beat by other women on the regular. Her next opponent is excited to box her.

As a Finnish person living right next to Russia with over a thousand kilometers of shared border... I'm not ok with some of athletes in games that might be pro putinists.
That said, I've had many favorite Russian athletes in sports history. Alexanders Popov (in swimming) and Karelin (in wrestling) were part of the essential Olympics experience in their glory days.

Of course this becomes a right wing left wing issue where both sides rush to dumb black and white answers when the issue is quite gray. Here is a thread I thought was pretty insightful.

I’m independent I’m of the belief that we need to shed the left and right wings and the two parties are Segregated due to extremism. If you really pay attention to the two ideologies of either side at its base form they match up, yet because of extremism the best example I can give is they have mutated into this ****. There for I’m not being political
I can’t find anywhere that she even took a test for these Olympics. All I know is she failed a gender test in 23. Hell I can’t even find anything that says she’s a man or woman. I’ve seen many places where it says she identifies as a woman.
I get that but she has a heightened level or she would’ve passed the gender test that’s due to the XY chromosome. She has characteristics of both male and female.
Thanks for not being a dick like some.
It means she is a female so let her compete as a female. I would get it, to a degree, if she was lapping the competition to such an insane degree because of whatever advantage being intersex provided her (if there is any at all), but that isnt the case.
And yes, it's a right wing issue. They have made a huge part of their platform the anti-trans movement and the public misgendering of people anyone who looks masculine is a big issue. Maybe if your daughter was the target of these kind of attacks you would view it differently. The left (and it's definitely not just the left, it's anyone who is a decent human)"rushing" to defend someone from ugly attacks is a good thing.

It’s not that simple. Read the whole thread. It’s not like having a reach advantage. We are also talking about a sport where safety is a bigger issue. But it is pretty symbolic of the political dumbassery we have going on in our country. We have complex issues that need nuanced solutions but too much of the political discourse runs at the end of the spectrum.
All of its complicated. Sports are competitive and people get worked up over everything. I am only calling out people who are saying she is transgendered or a man. She is neither of those. This wasnt an issue for the rest of her career though and people are only worked up now because of the political climate. If people can put that aside and have a nice conversation about it, great.
Heavy heavy eye roll. What kind of nuanced solution is there? You either compete as a female or male, or dont compete at all. Those are the 3 options.
There's no extreme left wing in the US of any note at all. Saying the Democrats, or even significant parts of that party, is crazy stuff. There's a _really_ extreme right wing, though. Anyway, back to the Olympics...
Some people want to live in a world where every female athlete will have to go through the most invasive testing on their bodies to prove they are actually a woman if they look the slightest bit masculine.
