I bet she drinks prune juice
A warrior’s drink.
Prune juice is fire and no one can convince me otherwise
I would drink that stuff if it didn’t make me poop so bad. It’s delicious.
That is what makes it a warrior’s drink! If you cannot conquer your bowels, how can you hope to conquer your enemies?
By conquering my enemies bowels!
When we were kids, my mom bought it to help her poop, figuring we kids wouldn’t want a weird pooping drink. She realized her err as we drank it all, and complained kids aren’t supposed to like prune juice.

She got to legally punch some of those losers in the face (in the ring); I would imagine that was also satisfying.
Hey Rowling, go a few rounds with her.
Dude, she punched a so called boxer and they started crying because they got punched in the face hard in the getting punched in the face hard sport.
Imagine trying to explain this to an alien. Two people get into the dedicated punching people in the face arena, where they then go through the ritual by which they agree that they are prepared to punch each other in the face. One punches the other in the face, who then gets upset.
All I can think is that reactionaries could have had a field day with this and used this as evidence that women shouldn’t be boxing, but racism > misogyny
I bet she’d be a kickass klingon actually.
Yo, that’s rad as fuck! Does anyone have a source for that quote?
The original French quote appears to be from here. Stories link to another tweet (since privated) as the source of the translation, which quotes the first tweet, but it only differs from the embedded Google Translate result by a single word (“tasty” vs. “satisfying”). Here’s a video of the press conference with more context and a similar translation of that quote.
Where there is an apple, there is a banana. There is no apple there, friends. She is just a really good boxer.
That’s actually a myth. People of any gender can have an Adam’s apple, but they’re generally more common/pronounced in AMAB people

Has there been released test data regarding whether or not there was a y chromosome? That seems to be the question that I have heard, and last that I heard it wasn’t resolved. I know this isn’t a popular opinion on lemmy, but I can understand the question.
Also chromosome tests aren’t a foolproof indication of sex anyway. People can have one set or another while still having the properties associated with the other sex, so it doesn’t really work as a definitive measure. The question is reasonable until you examine it and it’s motives.
The question subtly suggests that if she had a Y chromosome then she has some biological advantage and therefore doesn’t deserve the medal she earned. Does she actually have an advantage from the Y chromosome? Are we going to ensure through DNA testing that all competitors are going to be exactly equal by genetics? If so, we’re going to have 8 clones of Usain Bolt competing for the 100m sprint. Michael Phelps arguably had a biological advantage by having hyper flexible shoulders, are we disqualifying those biological advantages? Of course not, so what do they actually mean when asking those questions about the chromosome? They don’t have meaningful answers to the questions I raise, they just want to add fuel to the fires of the culture war for their own political means.
That’s just because these questions are disingenious at best. The real questions you should ask is why there are different men and women competitions on all levels (answer: to not deny half of the population to meaningfully compete) and where those people that don’t clearly fall into this binary division should enter.
This is a woman who has given birth
But the CHROMOSOMES MASON. WHAT DO THEY MEAN?
The short answer is that no such test has ever been produced, and the boxing association that claimed they had done one never revealed the precise results, or even which lab had supposedly done the test, and has since been decertified for corruption.
