    Women's Boxing in the Olympics

    Irrevelant. We're talking about a sex classification. If we have to guess and speculate, the governing bodies have failed.

    Women's Boxing in the Olympics

    The real story is that this person is male. The regulating bodies prefer to silly shally around without having robust categories for sex. Without these there is no women's sport. It appears these 2 boxers have been wrongly classed as girls since birth, like Caster Semanya was. Tests have...

    Women's Boxing in the Olympics

    A birth certificate might say "female" ... Is that enough, in your view, or should there be medical criteria? It is a failure to govern and exclude male advantage in women's sport. Did you support the ban on Oscar Pistorius for having an unfair advantage with his blades? Do you support athletes...

    Women's Boxing in the Olympics

    If the 2 boxers failed the gender tests how do you conclude that they are women? Please explain. Try to do so without mentioning the red herring of testosterone.

    Women's Boxing in the Olympics

    Sex discrimination presented as entertainment. Shameful lack of governance from the IOC. The IOC have a history of excluding, marginalising and trivialising women's sport. If they don't want to have a robust women's category step aside.

    The Olympics

    Of course there may be the one in a hundred million person to whom this does not apply. But that's what regulation in sport is for, to exclude unfair advantage.

    The Olympics

    This high testosterone bit is a blind alley. Women only have high testosterone if they have a medical condition or if they're doping. It doesn't happen naturally in healthy females. Even when it occurs due to a medical condition it is nowhere near as high as normal male range. It's an excuse not...

    The Olympics

    Caster has an intersex condition and is correctly categorised as male with a DSD. Not female or trans. So is this Algerian apparently. Nothing to do with trans. It's simply poor regulation and blatant sex discrimination against females. IOC disgraceful lack of integrity.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Can't believe some are happy to start the season with 2 strikers, one who usually plays wide left. One more is bare minimum. If we were serious about promotion it would be two. The squad is no bigger than we had in League 1 currently.

    3 women killed , believed to be the family of john hunt , radio 5 live racing commentator

    Women are being terrorised by a handful of violent men. Perhaps we should reclassify them as terrorists and target their enablers and groomers online. Yes, the likes of Andrew Tate. It should be as impossible to employ such a person as it would be to recruit a terrorist sympathiser. And young...
