#LinYuTing
Taiwan's Olympic boxing gold medalist Lin Yu-ting has pulled out of an international competition in Britain after the organizer questioned her gender eligibility, Taiwanese sports officials said Wednesday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2024/11/28/more-sports/taiwan-boxer-quits-event/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #moresports #taiwan #linyuting #2024parisolympics #ioc #worldboxing

#InternationalOlympicCommittee #spokesperson #MarkAdams said that #ImaneKhelif is not a #transgender #athlete and added every #person #competing in the #Olympics’ #women’s #competitions #complied with #eligibilityrules, noting Khelif and #LinYuTing are identified as #females on their #passports.
Großartig!
"Nach ihren Gold-Triumphen ist es die nächste Genugtuung für #ImaneKhelif und #LinYuTing: Beide Boxerinnen tragen bei der Abschlussfeier die Fahne ihrer Länder."
Paris Olympics boxing champion Imane Khelif, the Algerian at the center of a gender eligibility row, has filed a legal complaint in France for online harassment, her lawyer said Saturday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/olympics/2024/08/11/imane-khelif-files-complaint/ #olympics #imanekhelif #2024parisolympics #linyuting #ioc #internationalboxingassociation
She should sue all those haters, too!
"Lin’s victory came as news broke via Khelif’s lawyer that the Algerian has filed a formal legal complaint, citing being the victim of online harassment around the dispute. Asked whether she would consider taking similar action, Lin said: 'This is something I will discuss with my team. I will decide later what will be the next step.'"
My interest in the #OlympicGames is less than absolute zero & I've long believed that boxing should be banned.
Nonetheless, I'm THRILLED that two brave WOMEN #ImaneKhelif & #LinYuTing both won gold in their respective tournaments.

YES! She did it! #LinYuting

#Sexeligibility #rules for #female #athletes are #complex and legally #difficult.
Athletes like #ImaneKhelif of #Algeria and #LinYuTing of #Taiwan are left #vulnerable in the fallout. The modern era of #eligibility #rules are widely known to have started in 2009, after #SouthAfrican #800meter #runner #CasterSemenya surged to #stardom on the track as an 18-year-old #goldmedalist at the #worldchampionships.

Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting called it "a tough journey" after winning again Wednesday at the Paris Olympics to ensure that the two boxers at the center of a major gender controversy are into their respective finals. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/olympics/2024/08/08/taiwan-boxer-semifinal-win/ #olympics #linyuting #taiwan #2024parisolympics #gender #ioc #internationalboxingassociation

#Olympic #boxers #ImaneKhelif & #LinYuting at centre of #gender #row, here’s what #science & #rules say.
#Algeria's Khelif, who beat #Italy's Carini in 46 secs, accused of being ‘#male’. #Taiwanese #YuTing's #opponent made #cross with their #fingers, apparently indicating double #XX #chromosome of a #woman.
“Everyone in #Taiwan #hates #JKRowling now” for #claiming their #Olympic #boxer is #trans.
#Fans of #LinYuTing, including a former #president, are #defending #Taiwan #boxer's #honor against the #Transphobic "#HarryPotter" #author.
Exclusive: The Only #Trans #Athlete At The #Olympics Says #Algerian #Boxer Is “#Unquestionably” A #Woman.
#TeamPhilippines’ #HergieBacyadan, the only #transgender #athlete #competing at the 2024 Paris #OlympicGames, #slammed recent #reports alleging that he wanted fellow #boxers #ImaneKhelif and #LinYuTing “#banned.” On the contrary, the #Filipinoathlete #doubleddown on Imane and Lin’s “unquestionable” #femalestatus.

‘If boxers want to prove they were born women, they have to do it by themselves’. No, that’s ridiculous and unfair. Organisations need to define their criteria and test according to them.
#ImaneKhelif should be allowed to compete, as well as #LinYuting, if for no other reason than they don’t break any IOC criteria (which actually seems quite lax for #boxing). However some questions raised need consideration for the future.
The #hungarian #female #boxer #SvetlanaStaneva, the second #woman to have to #fight against a man-woman #LinYuTing wirh XY #chromosomes (who also won btw.. really 🤔?), makes an X sign with hervhands to show she is a real XX woman who only want to fight against XX real women boxers, and not XY man-women.
