Huh? Who claimed that CIS women arent women... I've literally never hard that claim.

@freemo
Imane Khelif is a cisgender woman: she was born and raised as a woman, and has competing for over 5 years as a woman.

The Russian government claimed she failed some sort of secret "gender test" to have her disqualified after she beat their champion in a tournament last year, and now people are calling her a "man" after a recent 1st round knockout.

...but she's not a "man", she's never been a "man", and no one thought of her as a "man" until she won against a Russian...

She's a woman.

@Raccoon @freemo TERFs like to hide behind two shields:

1. Lived experience
2. Stop transing our tomboys

Imane Khelif objectively lived as a woman and learned to fight because of it. And became a tomboy. She fits the fake definition of what a TERF would still consider a real woman.

But, surprise of surprises, the bigots don't provide gatekeeping measurements because they'll abide by them. They provide them to distract with false notions of good faith.

She is a woman, that seems hard to doubt and not look crazy.
