Author J.K. Rowling has fallen silent on her usually busy X (formerly Twitter) feed, after Olympic gold medalist boxer Imane Khelif filed a legal complaint in France for alleged cyber harassment over statements regarding her gender.
On August 9, lawyers for Khelif filed a lawsuit with a special unit of the public prosecutor’s office in Paris, stemming from false statements that spread online about her gender after the Algerian boxer defeated Italy’s Angela Carini in her first fight of the 2024 Olympic Games. Carini pulled out 46 seconds into the bout and told reporters afterwards that she had “never felt a punch like this.”
What is your point? If it’s such the norm why hasn’t she released the results herself?
Why does she have to? Why would she have a copy of a test allegedly done by a 3rd party that, based on news reports, was just using it as an excuse to eliminate her for beating a Russian opponent?
Do you know she doesn’t have the test results? When I get medical tests done I usually do receive the test results.
There are news reports saying she’s a man if you care so much about news reports.
It’s funny how it works both ways. She doesn’t have to release the results. And they don’t have to release them so you can verify it either. Playing your own stupid game. Why do they have to release the results?
You seem to be misunderstanding, intentionally I would guess. They claimed they did a test to “confirm” she was not a woman, I’m saying that’s a steaming hot load of bullshit and they were just looking for an excuse and they have no results to release.
Please cite your sources saying there are news reports that she’s a man.
That user is basing their position on a Daily Mail article citing LePoint, a french right-wing magazine, that quotes one of her trainers, who said (with context) “There was a problem with her hormones and chromosomes, but she’s a woman. That’s all that mattered to us.”
Nowhere does that even suggest she has XY chromosomes, and, to state the obvious, he’s not a doctor. He’s responding to an unsubstantiated allegation, and probably giving it too much credit. He even says that she underwent a testosterone test that came back within female norms.
It really is simple. The burden of proof is on people making these claims, and we’re not taking the word of a blatantly corrupt organization, that had a vested interest in disqualifying Khelif, who would not say what test was administered or what the results were. If they had more specific information, they wouldn’t shut up about it, because won’t even shut up now with less to go on.
Here you go.
Are you sure I’m the one intentionally misunderstanding things?
First of all, and you knew I was gonna lead with this, The Daily Mail?
Ok, let’s pretend that’s a legit news organization, now read my comment quoting Snopes and tell me if that answers any of your “questions”.
This is the source of the daily mail article. It’s an exclusive interview with her coach since apparently you don’t care to look further into it. Again, who is intentionally doing what here?
Anyways they should just test the chromosomes of their fighters at the very least. It’s a simple blood sample nothing too invasive at all. I don’t really care to watch an XY beat on an XX personally I don’t see how it’s an equal fight. Watch whatever you want though.
So you ignored the Snopes article, got it. You only seem to reply to the comments that are easy for you to deflect, how interesting.
What snopes article. Wtf are you talking about lmao. I think you were talking to someone else not me about that. Makes sense seeing how delusional you are anyways.
