Biological man fighting woman in boxing has to stop before woman boxer is killed. One thing to lose unfair competition, another to suffer possible life threatening injury or death. Please read article and then ask yourself if this should continue.

Alternate reply: how many transwomen getting murdered is it going to take before people stop spreading right-wing talking points designed to depict transpeople as dangerous aggressors rather than members of a small, vulnerable, widely disfavored minority group?

"My further understanding is that Khelif met the criteria set by the current Olympics but did not meet the criteria for a previous tournament. It is way beyond my pay grade to even speculate on which set of criteria is more appropriate."

It is real simple, follow the science. The science tells everyone that a biological male is stronger, faster and simple better athletically than a woman even after transition is complete. It is one thing to lose a track or swimming event, it is another when the event involves a violent sport like boxing. People on this board are a riot. They think this is some MAGA talking point when in truth the whole sports world is up in arms over this event. Many famous athletes are against this and for good reason, think they know better than the Olympic committee.

As I said, I'd support a set of objective criteria that apply to all women who wish to compete, just not an obviously bigoted and exclusionary "no transpeople" rule.

Anyhow, are you assuming that Khelif is a transgender person? The reporting I've read is clear as mud, but it seems to me more likely that she's a woman with elevated testosterone levels (for whatever reason), or a phenotypic woman with XY chromosomes. Without even knowing exactly what's going on here, conflating this with the issue of transgender women wishing to compete in sports is definitely an anti-trans rhetorical maneuver.

ETA: There's nothing really "fair" about who gets to compete at a high level in athletic events. Achieving that kind of success of course requires years of hard work, but it also generally requires extraordinary, inborn (and therefore unearned) physical gifts. Similarly, it seems plausible that transwomen might have physical advantages in some cases. Given how disadvantaged they are in almost every other aspect of life, I think we cis people can manage.

"Anyhow, are you assuming that Khelif is a transgender person?"

People like Pat McAfee from ESPN are saying Khelif is a transgender person. If that is not true than I will have no problem with that being a totally different issue.

Khelif is a Ciswoman who has a DSD (Difference in Sex Development) condition that resulted in XY chromosomes. She has a vagina, uterus, and breasts. Yes she does have elevated Testosterone compared to other Ciswomen. However, here's the thing. This match lasted under a minute because the woman that Khelif was facing had poor form and got punched in the face because that's the objective. Ciswoman or Transwoman, it's gonna hurt and likely break something.

Being a professional athlete comes with their own Genetic and Biological advantages. Michael Phelps' lung capacity that is double that a healthy adult that allows him to hold his breath more effectively and allow him to swim better is biological advantage unique to him and many top of the line swimmers. There are runners who build up very little lactic acid in their muscles allowing them to run... simply as long as they want to.

This attempt to paint every single accomplishment a Transwoman has in sports (of which there are just as many losses, go look at their records even after transition. It's not win after win.) As something unfair is simply transmisogyny. Actual Athletes, fight and train and compete. Little bitches cry and make excuses because they're not good enough so they can get a spot on the right wing grift train for a couple years because it's easier than just getting better.

Obviously you don't get the difference. Got a great idea for you, let's have men play women in tennis or in the WNBA. I mean according to you it is just a genetic or biological advantage -lmao.

Do you ever wonder why when biological men compete against women, they do much better than when they competed against men? Trans break swimming records against women but when competing against men are horrible. Do some research on Riley Gaines testimony before Congress on this issue. I will repeat it again and awaiting an answer. Have you ever heard of a biological women after completing transition compete against men in sports. If so, let me know the person.

Nice sexist comment referring to a woman as a bitch. The Italian woman who quit the match will be forgotten in a week, really.

"Boxers get hurt in the ring from punches. She claimed this was more powerful than anything she ever got hit with in any other fight against women.. You really think this woman trained for years to enter the Olympics would quit that quickly for no good reason. Wonder why? -lol

Thanks to all of you who are rebutting the vile comments of this MAGA mouthpiece. He continues to reveal, as perhaps never before, that he is simply a disgusting MAGA-TROLL. This thread contributes to the abuse of the Trans Community and is beneath BWW standards.

The split between genders in sports never arose from any actual experience of disparity, just the perceived idea that there is disparity.

Do Transwomen do nothing but break records against ciswomen? Or do some break records, come in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, Last and everywhere in between. But sure... you know what I've seen? That Transman who who they forced to compete against ciswomen and did in fact beat them pretty consistently.

No, I called her a little bitch because she's a little bitch. What I saw was a woman with poor form who got her **** rocked and bailed out in 47 seconds. The craziest thing is in her post fight interview there's barely any bruising (certainly not on her nose and chin where she was hit)... no blood. Like... for the hardest hit she's ever taken her injuries don't really convey that...

Did you happen to see that video of her falling over her own feet in another tournament? Sounds to me like someone who saw an opportunity to weaponize her whiteness against a woman of color.

Did you know that there's a convicted rapist competing in Volleyball at the Olympics? Go talk about something that matters.

Zeppie2022 said: ""Caitlyn Jenner, who won the 1976 men's decathlon as Bruce Jenner, says the ordeal has "hurt" the competition. "This issue has hurt the Olympic Games so much. … Everyone's talking about it," Jenner told Fox News' "The Story" Friday, adding it has taken away from other accomplishments. Jenner said Khelif should not be in a women's category. "I hate to be so downright rough … but we have to have rules and regulations, and it has to come down to DNA," she said, saying those with XY chromosomes should be in a men's competition. "I think the Olympic committee did absolutely the wrong thing by letting [Khelif] compete," Jenner added. "Shame on the IOC for not protecting the integrity of women's sports, and shame on the IOC for not protecting the safety of women's sports."

Think Caitlyn Jenner know better than BWW posters on this board."

Caitlyn Jenner participates in women only golf tournaments and killed someone with her car. Maybe go find someone who isn't a horrific piece of **** and isn't a little pick me ladder puller. Caitlyn got her's and will stand along those who would rather see her (and those like her) dead in the street.

Side bar, there has been exactly zero evidence of this claim of XY Chromosomes outside of a statement from one former head of the IBA, an organization back by Russia and allowed her to compete for years until she beat a Russian Fighter. Then all of a sudden she's being flagged for having XY Chromosomes. She's also already competed in the 2020 Olympics, but yall didn't give a **** because she lost so there wasn't attention on her.

Again Mr. Independent Thinker you allege to be. You started this thread to attack Transwomen and really any woman whose appearance veers too far outside what you deem acceptable for a woman, but didn't feel it necessary to make a thread about the IOC allowing a convicted child rapist compete and still have had no comment on it after I mentioned. Really shows where your priorities are at.

Wow. I did not attack any Transwoman, they don't make the rules. Please show where I attacked a transwoman.I would think it is obvious to anyone with a brain that the attack I am making is of the governing bodies of sports. Do some research of a thread created many months ago about "Lia Thomas" on this board. It was created by "Sutton Ross" who despises me but acknowledged the evidence I provided at the time about obvious physical advantage of biological men. competing in women's sports. As for making threads, I make what I chose and not going to spend all my time doing it. Probably spent way too much time already replying on this thread.

Yeah, you're both Transphobic weirdos trying to create false narratives trying to villify a woman competing in her sport that you LITERALLY called a man. Had she lost you never would have heard her name (like you didn't 4 years when she competed), unfortunately she had to go against a wallflower who allegedly had never been hit that hard with no bruising and allegedly a broken nose with no splint on it. Sure let's listen to her...

This is so ****ing tired. You're an embarrassment of a person who should die alone.

Meanwhile you seemed to miss the post in this thread where a trans person for American Airlines did a great job helping my wife and I this week that I addressed to you. Funny, how you can overlook it but ready to jump hoops to say I am part of some right wing ploy. Oh well Kdogg, I thought you were better than others who have posted."

Wow, you let a Trans person work for you without calling them a slur. Just so you know, that Trans person hates you.
