The Goal Post Episode 41 - The 2024 Olympics (Or, the Hunger Games)

1. Robert talks about IndiGo and the female option to not be seated next to a man, and the subject of gender segregation itself and the origins of how those things get determined in older societies
2. 2024 Olympics, the opening ceremony, we discuss the propriety of religious mockery while using something such as the Olympics as a soapbox.
3. More on the Olympics and the problems with the air conditioning and the food (namely, running out of meat).
4. We discuss the Imane Khelif hype as JK Rowling once again screams misogyny and turns it into a trans issue, while in fact the boxer in question is not trans but in fact a biological female who may be intersex or simply unusually masculine - we discuss how almost everybody was fooled into thinking this is a trans issue and how other complexities play into this entire subject.
5. We take a moment to appreciate the pommel horse and men's gymnastics in general.
6. We talk about an interesting development about Our Watch
7. Opeth is back with a new impending album release - newest single shows the return of elements that have fans tremendously excited.
8. Zoe McLellan

She has xy chromosomes, hence “she” is a male.

The information is that the organization that reported Khelif had XY chromosomes was deemed corrupt therefore untrustworthy. But even if she was (and in such a situation it would be a case of a sex disorder, not that she "transitioned" nor is she a fully fledged male but like we said, possibility of intersex), the gametes that she was born with matter, as did the fact that she is reported to be female on her birth certificate and was raised as such. What's more, it's illegal to transition in the country she was from. She was also boxing for a number of years and only after JK freaked out about it, wrongly turned it into a trans issue, and played every tradcon like a damn orchestra's worth of fiddles did this ever come up. The insistence that she is male is strictly for bandwagoning purposes instead of meaningful truth seeking.

@@vforvernon1314 bottom line is, this individual gender is undefined and presents with masculine capabilities, hence shouldn’t be matched with a typical female. By the way, is there a gender test result for a trustworthy source since the scandal? And if not, why not?

@@FuzzCuzz-f9c My understanding is that there hasn't been a committee that has been considered trustworthy. Supposedly she had a testosterone test and not a DNA test but I am not sure. As far as any testing after the scandal itself, I speculate it will be soon to come because of the controversy alone.

@@vforvernon1314 I suspect you will never see such results in the mainstream media, at least not without a narrative-fitting spin .
