XY Athletes in Women’s Olympic Boxing: The Paris 2024 Controversy Explained

The historical, political, and medical context of the Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting cases. Based on the blockbuster essay by expert Doriane Lambelet Coleman: https://quillette.com/2024/08/03/xy-a... Two Olympic boxers, Imane Khelif from Algeria and Lin Yu-ting from Taiwan, are at the center of a storm. Both have competed in women's boxing for years, but recently their eligibility has been questioned. The International Boxing Association (IBA) says tests show they don't meet the criteria for women's competition. However, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is still allowing them to compete. This has caused confusion and heated debate. Some people wrongly assumed these athletes are transgender, but that's not the case. Instead, this controversy is about a complex topic called disorders of sex development, or DSD. To understand this issue, we need to talk about biology. In most people, biological sex is straightforward: - XX chromosomes mean female - XY chromosomes mean male But nature isn't always that simple. Some people have conditions called disorders of sex development, or DSD. In sports, the most relevant DSDs affect individuals who are genetically male (XY) but may appear female at birth. Two important types are: 1. 5-alpha reductase deficiency (5-ARD) 2. Partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) ---- Quillette is an Australian-based online magazine that focuses on long-form analysis and cultural commentary.
