Ok I'll repeat myself: elsewhere in this thread I replied quoting the Snopes article on this subject. Are those instructions too confusing for you?

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.

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".

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.

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?

But they haven't said what test they performed to determine this, which would be the norm so the results can be verified.

That doesn't make her not female, or trans. From the Snopes article about this:

There are genetic conditions, termed differences of sexual development, in which biological females are born with XY chromosomes but possess female anatomy, or that affect how a biological female regulates and reacts to testosterone, causing levels typically associated with males. Though there is no independent confirmation that Khelif has these conditions, people born this way would legally be considered female or intersex.

Debates over these issues in the context of women's sports have nothing to do with a purported "woke" or "trans agenda," because such instances involve women who were born as women, identify as women and have not undergone any sex reassignment surgery or procedure to change this fact. That is what IOC spokesperson Mark Adams meant when he clarified to the press "this is not a transgender issue."

Gender-reassignment procedures require significant financial and medical resources. The notion that a woman from a rural western Algerian village who sold scrap metal to support her boxing career would have had the ability to undergo such a procedure in a deeply conservative Muslim country that prohibits the practice is extremely unlikely, at best.

Batman Arkham Asylum and (probably) Arkham City.

Insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors. But that's boring: flashlights these days are AMAZING!

How long before Trump publicly rants about this?

Not a good analogy. More like he set up a bunch of lockers on his land, and some people put drugs in them. Not as cut and dry.
