Nowhere in the article proves shes a biological male lmao. Also a "feminist" transphobic far right site? Really my guy? Nice source. "Gender tests", jesus. This is in retaliation due to this and nothing more:
Don't they have stylists? That cut doesn't suit him. He needs a longer I style haircutThis guy on gold zone can hear the Olympics from anywhere in the world.
Physics noped out.
It's the SRY gene (typically on the Y chromosome) that triggers sexual differentiation. If you lack that gene, you will not grow up as biologically male even if you are "genetically male". Equally, if you have XX chromosomes and one of them has the SRY gene, you will grow up as biologically male, even though you are "genetically female".But those questions aside, I do think it is important to be able to be accurate with what someone's biological sex is. I've seen some debates online if someone with XY chromosomes can be female. The answer to that is no. If you have XY chromosomes you are always genetically male. Some people will say "yes you can" because they have an alternate definition of female/woman. But once you muddy the waters there, then what it means to be a female becomes totally arbitrary. For the sake of scientific accuracy and discussion, I believe we need to hold to the sex binary and it is determined by chromosomes.

BTW I understand that this is not about genetically engineering but helps to explain the SRY gene.I recently learned about this in my class on genetics.
Meet Cosmo, a Bull Calf Designed to Produce 75% Male Offspring
Scientists at the University of California, Davis, have successfully produced a bull calf, named Cosmo, who was genome-edited as an embryo so that he’ll produce more male offspring. The research was presented in a poster today (July 23) at the American Society of Animal Science meeting.www.ucdavis.edu
I think they always do this for the home country.
I've been watching soccer for more than 30 years and i sincerely never saw something so flagrant of a referee trying to extend a game in favor of the home team.
To convert this into less confusing language this just means if you lack the SRY gene you will present as female in terms of various aspects of your anatomy, but your DNA will still reflect you are male.It's the SRY gene (typically on the Y chromosome) that triggers sexual differentiation.

If being a male just means having XY chromosones, then that is trivially true. If it means having certain characteristics, that may or not be true.To convert this into less confusing language this just means if you lack the SRY gene you will present as female in terms of various aspects of your anatomy, but your DNA will still reflect you are male.
That’s what it means. Anything else is gender. It’s why for example when say human bones are found in the woods and they extract DNA from them to try to find out information about who the person was and they reveal the sex, they don’t say ”We can’t really tell the sex of the person just by DNA alone…“ They just reveal if it’s male or female unequivocally.If being a male just means having XY chromosones, then that is trivially true.

It's not uncommon in women's football. The average stoppage time in the NWSL is 15+ min

Lol that is something straight out of looney toons. Imagine working 4 years for that to happen?
How would an article "prove" someone is a biological male?
You have claimed the fighter is a woman. Can you link me to where you got the information that proves this as fact?
You cleary have no clue so I'll just leave you live in your own bubble guy.
Well, theoretically it should be possible to pickup the absence or presence of the SRY gene, so if they found a skeleton they could identify whether that person had DSD. So in some sense the DNA would still give a picture of the person's "sex", however you want to describe that.That’s what it means. Anything else is gender.

If this wasn’t true then sex could literally just mean anything anybody wanted it to.
brother please take your inconsequential bickering elsewhere. When you try to frame this ordeal as some clear cut topic when it's actually a super complicated clusterfuck that none of us here have any authority to discuss, you're doing everyone a disserviceYou have claimed the fighter is a woman.

Sixteen minutes of stoppage time?! Did someone die on the pitch or something? Christ, that’s ludicrous.
And Brazil still won.

I think you have me confused with someone else because I’ve maintained that we don’t know if the reporting on the fighter is true and I’m only sharing what is being reported. I have not once tried to make this person’s identity clear cut. I did state biological sex is definitive, which it is. What this specific fighter actually is, is still not 100% confirmed one way or the other. But given it’s a hot topic whenever there are news updates I future they’re worth sharing.brother please take your inconsequential bickering elsewhere.

I understand your point and I do agree with some of the overall logic and your premise when it comes to the semantics of it all, but here's why I do think it is important that a concrete definition of biological sex is established.Well, theoretically it should be possible to pickup the absence or presence of the SRY gene, so if they found a skeleton they could identify whether that person had DSD. So in some sense the DNA would still give a picture of the person's "sex", however you want to describe that.
However, my point as it relates to the discussion is simply that if being male simply means "having XY chromosomes" then a statement like "X person has XY chromosomes therefore they are male" really means "X person has XY chromosomes therefore they have XY chromosomes". So there is no additional informational value there. A claim that someone who has XY chromosomes can be "female" in some relevant way, isn't disproved by pointing out that people who have XY chromosomes have XY chromosomes. The most that can be claimed is that they are framing their argument with the wrong language.
My badI think you have me confused with someone else because I’ve maintained that we don’t know if the reporting on the fighter is true and I’m only sharing what is being reported.

Maybe the truth will eventually be revealed about the Paris Olympics.
Amazing photo from men’s basketball today.
You mean the same source where he appealed and then dropped out of it? So tell us why won’t the IOC release the tests results?The only source is IBA president Umar Kremlev. The same IBA that has been stripped of its rights by the IOC for failing to comply with ethical standards after some pretty severe corruption scandals. When pressed for the test results they changed their tune from chromosome testing to failing to meet testosterone levels. Now the story has changed to some undisclosed third party test they had performed and they don’t want to release the details.
Real compelling evidence there.
Why won't the IBA state what the actual tests were? Why should they be trusted over the IOC?You mean the same source where he appealed and then dropped out of it? So tell us why won’t the IOC release the tests results?
I think they always do this for the home country.
Hook, line, sinker. This is the olympics, the onus is now on the IOC. Now why won’t they release it? We know why, but keep defending them.Why won't the IBA state what the actual tests were? Why should they be trusted over the IOC?
I would smash it even with the cheese smell hahahah
Dragging the discussion back to the gender controversy will get you removed from here on out. If you haven’t noticed, it’s drowning out the people trying to discuss the games.
