Watch: Pat McAfee Drops Bomb on Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif After Female Opponent Gets Obliterated
The Olympics, rather predictably, have become ground zero for protecting women in sports — and, for once, it has nothing to do with a transgender controversy.
Instead, it has everything to do with a three-letter acronym, DSD — or Differences of Sexual Development. As the Cleveland Clinic noted on its webpage, “Disorders of sexual development are conditions where a person’s reproductive organs and genitals are ‘mismatched’ at birth. Examples include male chromosomes (XY) and genitalia that appears female (vulva) or female chromosomes (XX) and genitalia that appears male (penis). Some people with DSDs have characteristics of both sexes.”
This is apparently why Algerian women’s boxer Imane Khelif was disqualified from last year’s International Boxing Association world championships in India.
