A simple doubt. Why can't the Olympics include a separate catergory for people who don't fall strictly under the women or men category. In that way, those people will be able to compete and also be recognised. Are there any legal problems that hinder such a provision?

Why does this reporter keep calling him her?

[gisannramharack]

Isn't a man punching a woman (and vice versa) call domestic violence..since when this has become legal???

[eddie-xrmn]

Most people think, investing in crypto is all about buying coins and leaving it to rise, common it takes much analysis to be a successful crypto trader.

I like to see someone interview the president of Algeria asking him directly what his views are exactly on same sex lovers and transgenders in general

The Olympics Committee should revisit their qualifying policy on men and women athletes. This Olympic incident is very unfair. Why did you allow a male to box with a female? Injustice to its core!

[matteotripodi]

That controversies happen when right-wing governments such as the Hungarian one or the Italian one fuel them up for ideological reasons.

The good thing is that the comments below are not representative of the public opinion, because the people usually tends to comment more against a thing than in favour, also in italian video with Carini statements there are on the contrary comments which are mostly against Carini

Leaders nowadays are cowards . Stand up strong and be like Trump. ✊✊✊🙏

[MDplanetZone]

[_to_Life]

Tell me WHY are we, so blind to see, that the only ones we hurt, are you and me and those who have died for this nation, and the athletes who have worked hard their whole life and made sacrifices and who deserve to be where they are!!! It's morally wrong to allow XY persons to compete against XX persons PERIOD !!!
IT IS WRONG !
SHAME ON THE OLYMPICS AND SHAME ON KHELIF AND ALGERIA !!!

[nayayelin-nkhc]

XY ≠ XX (21st century human being are so advanced that they dispute over someone being a male or female.🤣)

[mehrandr]
