Anti-trans activists are outraged that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) allowed boxers who failed gender and testosterone tests in the boxing world championships last year to compete at the Paris Olympics, even though the boxers are not transgender.
Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin Yu‑ting of Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) were not permitted to compete in the 2023 women’s world championships for boxing because they failed the International Boxing Association’s (IBA) gender testing.
IBA president Umar Kremlev said that DNA tests had “proved they had XY chromosomes and were thus excluded.” He also said that countries were recruiting cis men to compete in women’s sports. There is no evidence of that.
Khelif, though, said last year that she was excluded by the IBA because she’s Algerian: “People have conspired against Algeria so that its flag doesn’t get raised and it doesn’t win the gold medal.”
Unlike the IBA, the IOC is permitting both women to compete but isn’t commenting on the results of gender testing, their genetics, or their hormone levels other than to say that they meet the IOC’s eligibility rules.

Neither boxer is transgender – they were assigned female at birth and identify as women, making them cisgender – though anti-trans activists have spread transphobic rhetoric about the two women’s gender identities, including once-beloved children’s book author and current transphobe, J.K. Rowling.
Anti-trans influencers such as Riley Gaines and J.K. Rowling are throwing a faux outrage temper over two women (Imane Khelif [ALG] and Lin Yu-ting [TPE]) competing in boxing that are alleged to be “male”.
Both Khelif and Yu-ting are women and have always competed in women’s competitions.
This episode has revealed that the anti-trans movement has no valid argument on “saving women’s sports” if even cis women are being attacked for being not hewing to rigid womanhood standards.

A sorry excuse for worldbuilding in the reboot timeline.
But because they were too egregiously inconsistent when spending their money on things they deemed unnecessary—like hotels, they opted instead to get a free night at any of their nephews or nieces’ houses if they had still, not acquired their own private estate in the country they were visiting. Unluckily enough for Mirasol, Auntie Francine (formerly an estranged wife of a Brazilian banker) had gotten on his grandfather’s bad side exactly seven years ago, with her only son being in the pinnacle of the most horrific scandal to date, supplying a terrorist group composed of ex-Spetsnaz operators (and one American deep cover operative, apparently) mowing down civilians in a Moscow airport with ammunition.
Russia, who was already growing restless due to ex-Soviet hero Irman Zahkaev being the prized model of the Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, vying for a grey communist regime straight out of the Handmaid’s Tale—decided to jump in the wheelbarrow, and cried out at America’s brutal acts of terror upon the Russian people, comparing it to the likes of 9/11. NATO was quick to justify America’s actions, but they were losing credibility fast, and the Human Rights Watchers Association united with the International Red Cross Committee (and other white hat vigilantes) were rolling out the top secret documents of the CIA after a brutal security leak perpetrated by angry, activistic hackers under the group Anonymous, listing crime after crime, and American chancellors claimed that these events were ‘worse than the Assange & Mannings’ situation’.
