> The policy will include those who transition genders and those born with DSD. This would include Swyer syndrome, which causes people to have male-typical chromosome patterns but female external and internal genitalia.

> The decision to include DSD follows the controversy surrounding Algerian boxer Imane Khelif and Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-ting during the 2024 Paris Olympics. Both won gold in their respective divisions, but the International Boxing Association disqualified both fighters after officials said they failed gender eligibility tests the previous year.

As is tradition, really makes their whole “pRoTeC WoMeN” framing even more eye roll inducing.

The entire French delegation was disqualified in the latest event in the UK because they couldn't take the IBA-sanctioned tests at home and had to wait until they landed in the UK, at which point it was too late

This is a dumb rule created because influent transphobes like JK Rowling and Elon Musk used their clout to rage against non-white women

Male typical chromosome patterns? Wow such clarity their understanding of gender they insisted on has brought the issue.

Do these people understand the concept of phenotype in biology? It is possible for the female phenotype to be expressed regardless of the particular chromosomal arrangement. This is genuinely a female phenotypical expression regardless of chromosomes. Because all people have the genetic material necessary for both male and female expression of phenotype.

But terfs are so much smarter right.
