She is a woman and was born a woman. She has a genetic disorder that gives her XY chromosomes, but she exinits no male characteristics other than high testosterone.Comment

A man wouldn't be banned for looking different or having naturally occuring physical advantages.
If Khelif is the result of taking PEDs then fair enough, ban.
If Khelif is a mannish woman then I don't see what you can do.
Women's sport is just a bit of a joke. It's effectively sport that is limited to people with lesser physical ability. Maybe they should move the women's events to the Paralympics and leave the Olympics to the men.
vada test for elevated testos levels and if its above a certain range they issue a ruling, A typical finding and do more testingComment

womens sport is great, tennis is fantastic at times and better than the mens over the years as well, the solheim cup in golf is great etc, gymnastics women are great at etc etc i can hardly believe what im reading from u
testosterone levels are known to be a very high element in athletic performance & thats why they are tested for by vada and other testing orgs and monitored to make sure they are within certain limits to ensure fair play
is that too much to ask for to apply to the ladies as well? surely not, boxing is dangerous enough without dangerous advantages make it even worse

u have claressa shields ebanie bridges and many many more people like that on about this needing urgent look at and u are on here ragging about people saying the Exact Same thing saying they have agendas, etc etc
well thats called LIFE, lots of people are concerned about this and rightly so, some are making jokes & some dont care but its CLEARY an issue and thats why even leaders of countries are getting involved in the chatter
for the ioc to say if it says female on your passport u are good to go is **** out of Order for 1, totally unacceptable & heads should role for that one at the very least if its true, its hard to believe actually its so lax and vague in such an important issue for the sport and sports
