Original Note:
Imane Khelif is a biological woman, and is not trans or a biological male. The IBA performed a hormone test in which she "failed", citing an increase in T levels, which is common among female athletes. Anything about Chromosomes is conjecture made by the IBA president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imane_Khelif https://www.nbcchicago.com/paris-2024-summer-olympics/what-happened-with-imane-khelif-boxer-who-had-gender-test-issue-at-olympics/3508367/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/hormone-levels-are-being-used-to-discriminate-against-female-athletes/ https://www.business-standard.com/article/news-ani/female-athletes-have-naturally-occurring-higher-testosterone-levels-sports-authorities-must-consider-study-119052100607_1.html
