Olympics organizers say Algerian boxer Imane Khelif is eligible to compete as a woman

The International Olympics Committee said Friday that Algerian boxer Imane Khelif was born a woman and eligible to compete in her fight against Italy’s Angela Carini.

The IOC’s daily press conference had many questions on Khelif, who has landed in the middle of a culture war about gender in sports after Carini quit Thursday’s fight under a minute into the bout.

I don’t think biological testing is a bad idea at all

[alliefordrealty]

We are in dark times where science is no longer taken into account.

Whats wrong with gender test? What harm does it do?

[Abeline]

I have a question, I'm just trying to understand. There was a photo of imane being carried by the coach. imane's legs were around the coach's neck and the coach's hands on the upper and inside thighs. Would muslims allow a woman to be carried like this? Imanes religion is muslim, there were some comments made by imane about Allah. I'm curious and want to understand

Who stopped you from doing a gender medical test?

I hope she sues all the mega platforms that they defamed her

[jacktheslacker]

Ty finally there's still more posted videos with misinformation about iman smh

How can the guy say scientifically this isn’t the case of a man fighting a woman but also acknowledge that no testing has been done.

[Megdo-rt]

Yes we know that she’s a female, we saw her pictures of childhood, she’s a female

[eddievalle]

Do you think he would let his daughter's fight these men ?

[brianfoong]

What the organizers say is not relevant all

We see a lot of trans females trying to compete against biological women, I find it interesting that we don’t see a lot of trans men trying to compete against biological men.

The INTERNATIONAL BOXING ASSOCIATION tests. She failed and was not allowed to fight.

The world has completely lost the plot.
I feel sorry for future generations because it's not "global warming" or "climate change" they have to worry about.

[ItsShanzyy]

Finally someone said it ..thanks man😭❤️ please show solidarity with imane.. she us facing hate and abuse... Which can harm her mental health 😔

[glennryan]

"scientifically" another word that seems to be redefined.

[Sylvia-hucv]

Gender testing would have spared all this discussions.

[spinningweb]

She is born a female and has every right to compete in a woman comepetition.

Granted she has some biological advantage but it is what it is. We do not ban tall atheletes in high jump because they have a biological advantage.

[jamescampbell]

The ignorance and stupidity here is absolutely astounding.
