All we had to do was wait and the truth would eventually emerge.
Do you remember the Algerian boxer Imane Khelif who, at the Paris Olympic Games last summer, easily won gold in the under 66 kg category?
I had written a lot about this.
Truth
His physical appearance was, to say the least, surprising.
She was banned from the world championships held before the Olympics for failing tests to establish her gender.
She was said to have XY chromosomes. In short, she was a biological man.
The IOC let her participate in the Games based on her identity documents.
The identitarian left, the Olympic authorities and Algerian chauvinism, a very strange triad of bedfellows, staunchly defended Khelif’s right to hit women.
Journalist Djaffar Ait Aoudia got his hands on a report prepared jointly in June 2023 by the Kremlin-Bicêtre hospital in Paris and the Mohamed Lamine Debaghine hospital in Algiers.
Written by endocrinologists Jacques Young and Soumaya Fedala, the report reveals that Khelif suffers from 5 alpha-reductase deficiency, a congenital disease that disrupts sexual development only in humans carrying XY chromosomes, therefore males.
Their genitals are often deformed and take the form of a vaginal cavity which can lead to the erroneous conclusion that we are in the presence of a female baby if more in-depth tests are not carried out.
The problem becomes visible at puberty when the person begins to develop the physical traits normally associated with the male sex: musculature, hair growth, absence of menstruation, etc.
The person can, in good faith, be convinced of being a woman if the scientific truth is not established.
According to journalist Aouida, the report also states the results of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test: the athlete would not have a uterus, his testicles would have remained inside his body, and he would have a micropenis similar to a large clitoris.
Other tests also confirmed male-typical XY chromosomes and testosterone levels.
The report concludes by recommending corrective surgery and hormonal therapy, so that Khelif’s physical appearance more closely matches the gender with which he identifies.
One hypothesis raised by the report is that the athlete’s parents were perhaps related by consanguinity.
Another source, IOC member Professor Alan Abrahamson of the University of Southern California, also reports seeing test results establishing Khelif’s XY chromosomes.
Pari
All this will not surprise those who followed the affair with a cool head.
In August 2024, Georges Cazorla, Khelif’s physical trainer for the Games, had already admitted, without elaborating, that there was a chromosome “problem”, while pleading the athlete’s right to participate. in the Olympic event.
I bet whatever you want that Khelif will keep his medal.
