Of course, as if in a plot in a bad book, JK Rowling picked-up Barry McGuigan’s outburst and spread it far and wide as a “fact” – even though no facts had been ascertained. When asked what scientific tests the IBA had carried-out on Female Boxers “Imane Khelif” (Algeria) and “Lin Yu-Ting” (Taiwan-PRC) to prove they are really “men” in disguise – the IBA stated that due to “Confidentiality” and “Privacy” Laws no clarification can be provided! This utter stupidity does Russia (and the broader anti-fascist cause) no favours. Both Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-Ting are “Asian” and “non-White” – and both were born women, remain women, and have NEVER transitioned in their lives. Neither woman (unlike Russia) has any malice toward the Transgender Community. Given that Russia has today issued an official statement yet again supporting the now defunked IBA whilst attacking the IOC (and by inference Western liberalism, Socialism, and tolerance of difference) – this entire affairs smirks of Russian “racism” disguised as “Trans-phobia”! As always, think for yourself.
