World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

The question that everyone’s skipping over here to shout at you is this: In your conception, what does a woman look like? You must have a description ready to hand if you’re able to look at this athlete and say “that’s not it”.
A woman is a featherless biped.
Tap for spoiler
Please NSFW that, I don’t want to be the creep looking at naked women at work.
Maybe I don't know how women looks but I know how testosterone looks. And definetly she have a lot of it.
Women have testosterone. Some more, some less. Deal with it.
Well. I tried. That’s not really a good faith response to my question. If you’re not here to talk, you’re here to try and force people to listen. ‘Cept that doesn’t work so hot on the internet 🤣
See ya, Noisy.
Maybe the concept of men and women can be a social construct but if someone do too much testosterone they will always look like someone who done too much testosterone.. it's just science.
As a dude who unironically wrote the words “do too much testosterone”, I wouldn’t be invoking science if I were you 🤣🤣🤣
Ok then explain me what doing too much testosterone do to someone's body?
See, this isn’t how this works. You came in and made a claim. You said the athlete didn’t look like a woman. I asked you what you thought a woman looks like. You shifted the goal posts and said “nah, let’s talk about what testosterone does to the body”. Next you’ll be asking me to prove some bassackward negative I never introduced. I know how this plays out and it’s boring.
I’m not following you down this rabbit hole. This is goodbye, my dude.
Good luck

In women, it helps with fertility on in vitro treatments. It's a necessary hormone for everybody.

Are you claiming Khelif was doping with testosterone? Because no one official has made such an accusation.
Think about it, maybe she is doing testosterone as a cheating method thinking "with all this stuff of LGBT+ hype going there is no problem"
That is one hell of an accusation to throw out with literally zero evidence
No one has made that accusation but you. So maybe you should think about it.
Khelif was not disqualified by the IBA because of testosterone. They will not say what test she took, they will not say who administered it, they will not say the results, but they will say she wasn't tested for testosterone.
Does that not strike you as odd?
