Colin Wright / The terminology of whether some Olympic athlete is "cis" or "trans" is irrelevant, as these are ideological terms that refer to whether a person's "gender identity" (a pseudoscientific term) aligns or does not align with their "sex assigned at birth."

But "sex assigned at birth" is another ideological term that does not always reflect a persons actual sex. Some people are born with DSDs that may cause a doctor to mistakenly "assign" a newborn the wrong sex. According to gender ideology, if these people grow up and "identify" as the sex that was incorrectly recorded on their birth certificates, they will be "cis."

Because gender ideology is completely detached from reality, the term "cis woman" does not necessarily mean "female."

So everyone saying that the male boxer currently beating up women in the Olympics is a "cis woman" needs to stop using these misleading ideological terms and actually focus on material reality.

The boxer is biologically male, and ideological word games do not change that fact.

There are people born with extra chromosomes and both genitalia, and one gender is selected over the other at BIRTH. This boxer was designated female at birth by her doctors, then she was raised as a female, and she has female genitalia. She is a WOMAN. Tests are only for hormones and chromosomes, but she does not take testosterone, it is natural in her body. She is a female. She has a vagina. Her DOCTORS already left off 20 years ago. She isn't going to change sex to appease any boxing Federation or YOU! She was raised female and identifies as female for her only 20 years on the planet. Is there some reason you are so vehemently against a woman who is a woman -- let me guess? She's too "masculine" looking for you? That's your own personal prejudice and politics. Go watch the volleyball gals in bikinis. That's more your style. Meanwhile, she's a female. She also comes from a country where it's illegal to be gay, let alone trans. She is not trans. She was BORN THIS WAY. Take your complaints up with God. You're not God, by the way. God made HER this way. Get over it.
