Alright, we've waited a bit, and some more info has surfaced. The expert sexual development biologist being interviewed here has a balanced and polite take on it, which I think is very reasonable.

Have a listen.

That video is long. If the boxer in the Olympics has 5 Alpha Reductase Deficiency, they may have been observed and considered close enough to female at birth. However, that condition is referred to as male at 12 syndrome. The body doesn't produce an enzyme to make dihydrotestosterone (DHT) so those with XY chromosomes don't have their male parts form right at birth. However, during puberty, enough testosterone is produced to complete the process and they go from looking like girls to boys. An adult with this disorder would be completely male even though they may have a birth certificate saying they were born female. They should not compete in women's sports as adults if they were fully masculinized. We don't know if that is the condition the boxer in question had or not. All we know is they may have had XY chromosomes. That condition is mostly limited to the Dominican Republic. If they had partial androgen insensitivity syndrome, that would be another possibility that may warrant possible disqualification depending on how male or female they ended up. That condition would be harder to set a clear standard to qualify or not because those with it are on a spectrum between mostly male and mostly female.

Maybe if it was posted by someone else. But not you, Fuzzy.
No one's coming to Australia to burn your tree down. 😉

Also, United states and Brazil are dominating Men's Beach Volley ball during the Olympic games.

Showing that having a disgusting convicted child-pedo. on your team is not the way to dominating the Olympics. And, a giant middle finger to the entire Dutch team for not just tolerating having such an individual as one of their members, but openly supporting him as well.

Not your fault Raggie. The world is in a sad state of affairs with morality in the toilet and many nations at each others' throats. Politics and other people's agendas scream out for attention distracting us from enjoying the little things in life that make life worth living. You just have to learn to tune out the bad and focus on the good so it doesn't stress you out.

I'm sure you wanted to just talk about sports with the Olympics, but let's face it, this has been a weird Olympics.

We are all dealing with our own issues. Sometimes our posts act as a relief valve to release stress in our own lives for dealing with the craziness in our lives and the world. Don't take it personally. We're all taking life one day at a time, trying not to have a heart attack from what comes up next in the news cycle. Some of us take it better than others. We just have to show a little understanding and compassion toward each other so we can stay civil, and on occasion help one another out.

I enjoyed talking Olympics with you, Rag.
I thought the games were very engaging and exciting, just like every time they come around.

Hey, just a couple of weeks til the Paralympics! Those are getting proper coverage for the first time this year. Definitely will be giving those a watch too. Keep an eye and make a thread.

Chin up, bub. It's a whole lot better world out there than most people convince themselves of. Part of that is cause you're in it. Let's keep it as good as we can, right?

[Fuzzywuzzies]

Yeah, thanks for being pretty civil fellas! I like hanging out here.
To be honest this Olympic Games has been weird, alright. But my family and I have very much enjoyed watching master athletes in their prime, just plain out making a beauty of their respective sports.
Humanity can be wonderful sometimes.

Civility is commonplace here. I'd call us a dysfunctional family, but, since there's no other kind, we're just a family.

True.
