    I believe the claim is not that she is trans, but that she is a chimera: her mom got pregnant with boy/girl fraternal twins, and instead of developing separately, they merged into one embryo. The other boxing organization that disqualified her claimed that some of her cells have a Y chromosome.

      How are you able to believe that. Is there some sort of concrete evidence that everyone else is missing or is it a gut feeling justification?

      The international boxing association Russian president claimed that the DNA results showed two athletes had xy chromosomes but never published the results. That claim only came after Imane, an Algerian boxer, defeated the Russian boxer Azalia, and the claim was used to disqualify Imane’s victory.

      Of all the conspiracy theories, isn’t it more reasonable that the Russian president wanted to protect the Russian boxer and made up a reason to DQ Imane to ensure that his home country wasn’t stained by a loss?
