Can we talk about this picture of Janjaem (the Thai boxer who won a bronze medal) kissing Imane’s gold medal? Janjaem said she was in the elevator with Imane when she suddenly felt dizzy and was about to faint. Imane noticed this and tried to help, but ended up giving Janjaem the gold medal and told her to "kiss" it. However, Janjaem, who was about to faint, thought Imane said "Christ" and was started looking for Jesus on the medal😭😭😭

non per andarti contro o cose, però guarda che le due atlete, Imane Khelif dell'Algeria e Lin Yu-Ting di Taiwan, che gareggiano alle Olimpiadi di Parigi nella categoria sono state precedentemente squalificate da un campionato del mondo femminile per avere "cromosomi XY". Praticamente, sono stati svolti i campionati mondiali di boxe femminile nel marzo del 2023, ospitati a Nuova Delhi, in India. Tuttavia, l’evento è stato segnato da polemiche dopo che Umar Kremlev, presidente dell'International Boxing Association (IBA), ha annunciato la squalifica di più pugili dal campionato. Kremlev ha detto che i dirigenti dell'IBA si erano incontrati verso il gran finale del campionato per discutere di "equità tra delle atlete e professionalità", dopo che sono state sollevate preoccupazioni sul sesso biologico di alcuni partecipanti. Ha aggiunto che dopo "una serie di test del DNA", l'IBA "ha scoperto atleti che stavano cercando di ingannare i loro colleghi e fingere di essere donne". Parlando a TASS News, Kremlev ha affermato che i test avevano dimostrato che le atlete in questione "avevano cromosomi XY ed erano quindi esclusi dagli eventi sportivi". Tra gli squalificati c'era Imane Khelif, la pugile algerina, la quale avrebbe dovuto sfidare Yang Liu della Cina nella finale dei pesi welter. Khelif è stato rimosso dalla lotta per la medaglia d'oro e al thailandese Janjaem Suwannapheng, che aveva perso contro Khelif in semifinale, è stato invece permesso di procedere a combattere Yang. In una dichiarazione pubblica, l'IBA ha scritto che "un pugile dell'Algeria, Imane Khelif, è stato escluso dai campionati mondiali di boxe IBA a causa del mancato rispetto dei criteri di ammissibilità dell'IBA". Ma il Comitato Olimpico Algerino ha negato le affermazioni dell'IBA, attribuendo la squalifica di Khelif a una "cospirazione" per impedire all'Algeria di avere una medaglia d'oro nella boxe. Mentre alludevano vagamente al fatto che Khelif è stato colpito per "motivi medici" che circondano alti livelli di testosterone, hanno aggiunto che avrebbero sostenuto il viaggio di Khelif alle Olimpiadi di Parigi del 2024 a prescindere. Ma dopo la controversa squalifica, una pugile si è fatta avanti per discutere della sua esperienza (simile a quella della Carini) combattendo Khelif sul ring al campionato. "Quando ho combattuto con lei mi sono sentita molto fuori dalla mia profondità", ha scritto la pugile messicana Brianda Tamara su X. "I suoi colpi mi hanno fatto molto male, non credo di essermi mai sentita così nei miei 13 anni come pugile, né nel mio sparring con gli uomini. "Grazie a Dio quel giorno sono uscita dal ring sana e salva, ed è un bene che finalmente se ne siano resi conto"", ha detto Tamara Brianda.

Sostanzialmente, l’algerina ha potuto partecipare alle olimpiadi di Parigi perché le linee guida per l’ammissibilità sono a compito del paese di provenienza. 

C’è anche da ricordare che Angela Carini si era dichiarata pronta per l’incontro (rispondendo alle accuse della destra), dicendo: “Io devo adeguarmi a quello che ha deciso il CIO, quindi domani andrò sul ring e darò tutta me stessa“.

le frasi fra “” non sono mie parole

Cioè fammi capire, stanno umiliando una donna, ci stanno facendo becera propaganda sopra, e vieni qua a scrivermi 'sto MUCHO TEXTO e a fare la punta al cazzo su come nel 2023 l'IBA, ente sportivo non riconosciuto dal comitato olimpico internazionale (ansa), l'abbia esclusa dai mondiali? È idonea per le Olimpiadi, e lo era anche nel 2021, non lo fosse stata l'avrebbe esclusa anche il comitato olimpico, quindi cosa?

E Tamara Brianda (ma anche la nostra Angela Carini) ci spiegasse allora perché 5 donne sono riuscite tranquillamente a battere la Khelif senza piangere (x)

E Angela se ne andasse a quel paese, col suo NON salutare l'avversaria ha dimostrato una bassezza unica

Ma veramente, non hai di meglio da dire? A volte l'empatia vale più di un "ACHTUHALLY ☝️🤓"

Why aren’t you also pissed Toph was played by a man?

That post that said no one has mentioned anything about any racist or sexist implications about Toph being portrayed as a man in the Fire Nation propaganda play about mocking them all and then laughing the Fire Lord burns them to death is incorrect. It's been brought up.

Them portraying Toph as a man because she's strong and skilled is misogynistic too, powerful women of color are constantly called men and robbed of their identity (see: sports, especially boxers).

If you disagree about there being a history of women of color, especially in sports or martial arts or battle or workforce or politics (off the top of my head: Janjaem Suwannapheng, Imane Khelif, Sabrina Williams, Michelle Obama), being portrayed as inherently manly, less of women, or as not women at all in targeted propaganda against them or caricature portrayals, then feel free to disagree. If you have no interest in it, then say you want it to not be discussed. If you think comparing the Watsonian politics of atla to the real-world things they parallel shouldn't be done the way a lot of cultural aspects of atla are analyzed, then say that.

I get it, fandoms don't like analysis of in-universe systemic racism or xenophobia or the vectors it can take and the layers in propaganda, not even in a show where the premise is a nationalist empire that committed genocides and plans to commit another and that lies in its history books about its victims and has been successfully indoctrinating its citizens.

But why say no one has even brought up a point of analysis that they did bring up?

BREAKING: TWO “Female Boxers” Set To Compete At Paris 2024 Were Previously Disqualified From Women’s World Championship For Having “XY Chromosomes”

By

Anna Slatz

July 27, 2024

Two athletes competing at the Paris Olympics as “women” were previously disqualified from a women’s world championship for having “XY chromosomes.” Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin Yu-Ting of Taiwan are scheduled to compete in Olympic women’s boxing next week despite past questions surrounding their biological sex.

The Women’s World Boxing Championships took place in March of 2023 and was hosted in New Delhi, India. A total of 324 boxers from 64 nations competed during the 10-day trial, marking the largest participation in any iteration of the championship ever recorded.

However, the grand event was marred by controversy after Umar Kremlev, president of the International Boxing Association (IBA), announced the disqualification of multiple boxers from the championship.

Kremlev said that IBA executives had met towards the championship’s grand finale to discuss “fairness among athletes and professionalism,” after concerns were raised about the biological sex of some participants. He added that after “a series of DNA-tests,” the IBA “uncovered athletes who were trying to fool their colleagues and pretend to be women.”

Speaking to TASS News, Kremlev claimed that the tests had proven the athletes in question “had XY chromosomes and were thus excluded from the sports events.”

Among the disqualified was Imane Khelif, an Algerian boxer who had been set to challenge Yang Liu of China in the welterweight final. Khelif was removed from the gold medal fight, and Thailand’s Janjaem Suwannapheng, who had lost to Khelif in the semi-finals, was allowed to proceed to fight Yang instead.

In a public statement, the IBA wrote that “a boxer from Algeria, Imane Khelif, was excluded from the IBA World Boxing Championships due to the failure to meet the IBA eligibility criteria.” But the Algerian Olympic Committee denied the IBA’s claims, attributing Khelif’s disqualification to a “conspiracy” to prevent Algeria from having a gold medal in boxing.

While they vaguely alluded to Khelif being struck for “medical reasons” surrounding high testosterone levels, they added that they would be supporting Khelif’s journey to the 2024 Paris Olympics regardless.

But following the controversial disqualification, a female boxer came forward to discuss her experience fighting Khelif in the ring at the championship.

“When I fought with her I felt very out of my depth,” Mexican boxer Brianda Tamara wrote on X. “Her blows hurt me a lot, I don’t think I had ever felt like that in my 13 years as a boxer, nor in my sparring with men. Thank God that day I got out of the ring safely, and it’s good that they finally realized,” Tamara said.

A second boxer was similarly disqualified by the IBA at the event, Taiwan’s Lin Yu-Ting, who was also stripped of a bronze medal.

Lin had previously won 5 gold medals in women’s boxing tournaments.

Lin Yu-Ting winning gold and a $100,000 prize at a 2022 women’s boxing championship.

Despite having faced the disqualification just last year, both boxers will be competing in Paris as female boxers.

Khelif is scheduled to fight Italy’s Angela Carini on August 1, while Lin Yu-Ting is set to be matched the next day.

While neither have stated they identify as transgender, it is suspected that both are impacted by a Difference of Sexual Development (DSD), a category of medical conditions encompassing any problem noted at birth where the genitalia are atypical in relation to the chromosomes or gonads.

DSDs in elite sports first came to public attention during the meteoric rise of South African runner Caster Semenya. Semenya’s rapid improvements in performance beginning in 2009 initially triggered suspicions of drug use, and World Athletics (then called the IAAF) was internationally denounced for requesting Semenya take a test to ascertain his biological sex.

Most women, including elite female athletes, have natural testosterone levels of 0.12 to 1.79 nanomoles per liter (nmol/L), but Semenya has XY chromosomes and male gonads producing a normal level of testosterone for a male. In 2011, Semenya was measured as having 15.6 and 29.3 nmol/L. Years later, a decision in the Court of Arbitration for Sport revealed that Semenya has a DSD where the normal male sexual development fails in utero, resulting in external genitals that appear to be a vagina at birth, but was in fact an underdeveloped penis.

Speaking to Reduxx, a representative with the Independent Council on Women’s Sports (ICONS) condemned the confusion that had emerged surrounding the sex of competitors due to the International Olympic Committee’s 2000 decision to end sex-verification screening.

“The IOC’s decision to end sex-verification screening in 2000 has caused distrust and confusion in women’s sports ever since,” ICONS co-founder Marshi Smith said. “Its 2021 decision to offload the responsibility for international eligibility criteria to individual sporting bodies has resulted in varied standards and widespread chaos among athletes, coaches, officials, and the public.”

Smith notes that a new boxing qualification system was implemented for the 2024 Olympics in which an ad-hoc unit was created by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Executive Board to organize the boxing competitions for Paris 2024.

This new unit was set up after the International Boxing Association (IBA), which had previously disqualified Khelif and Lin from women’s championships, was suspended by the IOC due to concerns it was receiving funding from Russia.

In the FAQ for the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit, no gender eligibility guidelines are specified, something Smith suggests likely indicates that individual nations were given a tremendous amount of power to deem their own athletes eligible.

“In boxing, the recent contentious split between the IBA and the IOC has now placed Olympic eligibility power into the hands of national boxing federations, allowing countries like Algeria and Taiwan to set their own standards and continue placing male boxers in the ring with female athletes in combat for women’s Olympic medals,” Smith explains.

“The physical abuse of women on an Olympic stage eliminates the integrity of all Olympic events and risks lifelong injury or even death for female athletes. This deceit cannot be allowed to continue.”
