It has been shocking to watch legacy media, “representative” groups, and politicians flat-out lie about the IOC announcement.
- No one is banned. Men simply can no longer compete in the women’s category.
- The testing is not “invasive”. It is a one-time cheek swab that was used from 1968 until 1992. It is merely being reinstated.
- EVERY athlete competing at this level is already subjected to regular drug testing, including having to urinate into a cup IN FRONT of a witness. This is significantly “more invasive,” and yet, every athlete expects, and agrees to, it.
