…there is an article in one of the tabloids written by someone who grew up with Imane Khelif in her village from when she was a child…he obviously is in full support of her and for me she’s female…she was assigned female at birth and has been brought up and ‘socialised and conditioned’ as a female and I imagine that the socialising and conditioning so male children and female children would differ maybe quite substantially in her home country…so for me, she is female but there are obviously some complexities that are more unique…in terms of competing in a female sport category, though…and especially a contact sport has higher levels of safety concerns…Im not totally sure that she isn’t an ‘advantaged athlete’..I’m also not sure that she is……but that is something that she just can’t be as it has to be that skill levels may differ but it has to be a ‘fair fight’…
