Olympic Shame. They made it look like a freak show....
-
XX vs XX Good. XY vs XY Good. XX vs XY is not even a contest!
-
Closed comment session in uk protests where British can be heard. Open comment session in everything else
-
Almost 95% of all men could beat any woman in boxing.
-
Who is the bully here ? Perhaps it’s Imane for getting in the ring to beat up women. Shame on the IOC and shame on France for staging the most outrageous woke olympics ever. Can’t wait for the closing ceremony to bring it an end, though am dreading what will be paraded out to the world in that !
-
The worlds gone mad. it's a joke he should not be allowed to compete full stop.
-
There is no confusion here. Khelif is a male boxer who has been permitted by the IOC to publicly abuse women. Regardless of how he was raised, identifies, or what his passport shows, referring to a man like Khelif as a woman is an insult to human dignity. Stop gaslighting people who can clearly see with their own eyes that Khelif has a male body. People aren't trying to "discredit the credibility of the Olympics," the IOC has done that to themselves with inane decisions like this.

Silly me, I thought getting punched out by a dude was the ultimate bully.
-
"66kg semi-finals where she " She with XY chromosome?

"Two women!"... oh my god what a filthy outrageous disgrace!

The women should have refused to get into the ring with him.
-

Do a sex test. Simple. Oh, but that would be offensive wokes say.

Press asked if he would clarify what kinda test it was and he said I don't wanna talk about it umm
-
They are not women… stop saying this.. he is tested Y chromosome and that means a man.. let them take another test now
