    What open class? There is no open class at the Olympics. So no it isn’t really that simple.

      Really? They prohibit women from competing alongside men?? No thats not the case, women only sports is to prevent males with higher biological advantage from taking over the women’s competition.

        Is this an “Air Bud Rule” thing?

        Also, we have no idea if Khelif is biologically male. We have one corrupt Russian official saying “well maybe.”

          We actually do have a pretty good indicator that she’s biologically female - the fact that her home country, where she still lives, would’ve jailed her if they figured out she was a trans woman before they sent her to the Olympics. Algeria doesn’t allow gender transitioning in any way, and they can and do imprison people who live as a gender other than the one they were born as.

            You clearly can’t convince people. Because they just move on to “even if she is biologically female…”
