MP Whittome added, “Imane Khelif was assigned female at birth. She’s spoken about being initially banned from boxing by her dad, who said it wasn’t for girls
so basically too much of a girl to do boxing, but now she's made it to the fucking Olympics she's not woman enough? Poor lady can't win.
Meanwhile, Italian Family Minister Eugenia Roccella defended Carini after her Olympic dream was shattered in 46 seconds.
Skill issue. She lost the match. The fact that she slandered and missgendered someone because she lost to them is an embarrassing display of poor sportsmanship and should really be grounds for a libel lawsuit.
I feel like in all the coverage, especially as the italian government gets involved - like reported here - there is glaring lack of any sort of mention that the current italian government is like at least extremely right wing up to some weird neo- or post-fascism party and that's by polite society discussion standards
