Yes, I should have studied the photo more closely. They have managed to include a poor child in all of this nonsense. I am definitely not calling the child a freak. This is going out to the World. There are millions of children watching that opening ceremony asking parents why one of the featured dancers is dressed as a woman but sporting a beard. That conversation shouldn't be happening at the opening of the Olympics.
What has this opening ceremony got to do with the best athletes in the World?

What has any opening ceremony got to do with any sporting event - it`s all just bollocks
 
WTF is going on? More children murdered and attempted murdered. Two children stabbed to death, and nine more stabbed, six critical. Two adults trying to save them also critical. At the moment, it is not being treated as a terrorist attack. The attacker is a 17 year old male. These kids were attending a Taylor Swift event in Southport. What is going on with all these stabbing attacks on babies and children? Why go after those, whatever your motive or mindset? My heart goes out to those parents and all the kids involved.
 
It's scary what is happening to this country. In the last week or so alone, we've had a stabbing in Wigan, riots in Leeds, a British soldier being stabbed in Kent, policewomen being punched at Manchester airport and now this.

...and lots of people demanding to know the origin and ethnicity of those accused of committing these crimes.

And Im not convinced the Courts of Justice in this country will mete out the appropriate punishment.

This individual should never be permitted to walk as a free man ever again.

I see he is being described as a 17 year old child so, sadly, it is doubtful appropriate punishment will apply.
 
****ing French cars.

Who in their right mind designs a car that to take the headlights out to make bulb changes / beam adjustments easier you have to take the whole bumper off.

They must have been eating some seriously strong brie the day the MK3 Clio was designed.

This story has gotten wildly out of control and turned into something it never was. The two boxers were born women. Nobody is claiming these two were born men, that's just people getting the wrong end of the stick on Twitter. The idea Algeria (an extremely anti-LGBT country) would put a trans women into the Olympics is ludicrous.

The issue is that the IBA claim to have found XY chromosomes, potentially meaning they are intersex (which basically means you were born with both male and female attributes similar to the Caster Semenya situation) however if you looked at their genitals you'd say they were women.

The IOC stopped recognising the IBA a few years ago (around the time a Putin ally was elected as IBA president and quickly started getting implicated in match fixing scandals) and say they don't trust the IBA tests (which they say are confidential, meaning the IOC can't validate them). Honestly there is good reason to be suspicious, the Algerian boxer fought without issue under the IBA for years (including winning a silver in the 2022 championships, odd they didn't have a problem with her then) yet for some reason a random gender test was called for just before fighting a Chinese boxer for gold. Even more bizarrely the IBA claim they also tested her in 2022 and got the same results, which raises the question why they needed to bother with testing in 2023 instead of just immediately banning her.

That's why the IOC are letting the two boxers compete, they think the IBA are lying. There's a lot of fake information going around claiming that the IOC is happy to let men fight women which isn't true.

Simple. Agreed B,
Yes it is; however we all know life and one's body is not a "everyone gets the same" biology.
Generally folks are born with either a penis or vagina; sometimes, very very rarely nature gets in a tangle and mixes up what an innocent gets in genitals, chronozones, or if you are our north county rivals, fingers: **** happens, it isn't fair, the rules are rules.
Sad for the Algerian and the South African in the past but that is what it is, unfair.
