TheBigBrotherit's possible for a woman with XY chromosomes to produce testosterone if she doesn't have testicles? or we are talking about an hermaphrodite?
Testosterone is also produced in the renal glands, so no not necessary to have testicles
I’m wondering about the Olympics boxer who knocked out the other boxer, how it is posible for her to have that amount of testosterone in her body? Is she a hermaphrodite?
I heard that one has been a man before redefining his/her legal gender.
So is she trans? Or WTF I don’t understand the thing at this point? How is it posible she competed with a genetic women being a trans woman?
Mate I appreciate that you seem to be coming at this with honest curiosity, but do yourself a favour and get this information from reputable news sources.
This whole thing is so polarised and so full of misinformation that anything you read from randos on social media you have no way of knowing if it’s credible or complete bullshit.
What’s your take on this?
There is no take. She’s a woman. She was born a woman. She always was a woman.
She doesn’t have XY chromosomes or is in any other way intersex, to anyone’s knowledge. She’s just a woman that doesn’t fit into some people’s narrow views of what a woman should look like.
This has nothing to do with trans issues.

This fucking kind of shows it’s why I hate humankind.
My take is irrelevant. Here’s a reputable news source about the issue: www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08-04/…/104181158
Tl;dr: she is and always has been a woman. The source of the controversy is the International Boxing Association, which claims she “failed an unspecified eligibility test to compete last year over elevated levels of testosterone.”
Later in the article, in reference to the IBA: “the Russian-dominated body — which has faced years of clashes with the IOC — has refused to provide any information about the tests, underscoring its lack of transparency in nearly every aspect of its dealings, particularly in recent years.”
silly goose meekahShe’s not trans.
So she is just a normal woman? Born with ovaries? Just she worked out more and it’s better at the sport? So if it’s that way I believe it’s fair play.
She’s a generic women, XY female it’s a thing. That being said we don’t know if she actually is XY female. The IOC says she’s meets all qualifications to fight as a female, those being assigned female at birth and female on her passport. The only source we have that she may have XY chromosomes is the IAB president telling media that’s what her disqualification was about.
It should be noted though that we don’t know what tests, if any, were performed to determine this. Also to, the best of my knowledge, there’s no actual proof of elevated testosterone levels aside from the disqualification last year.
I think that the IOC banned the IAB from running the Olympic competition and the complete lack of transparency from the IAB cats a big shadow on their ruling.
