The Spin

Right narrative

Those shouted down as bigots for questioning why a biological male should be allowed to physically fight women athletes have finally been vindicated. It has been known for years that Khelif has male sex characteristics and thus has an unfair advantage over biological women, yet the media has no interest in correcting the record. Women's sports should not be a casualty of the biology-denying left and media.

Left narrative

The crusade against Khelif shows no sign of abating. The private and intimate medical records of Khelif have no business being in the public domain, as right-wing figures do everything they can to delegitimize the rightful gold medalist. Khelif has always competed as a woman without issue, as she becomes the collateral damage of a spat between the IBA and the IOC. Discrimination has no place in women's sports.
