Every Olympian is an edge case. Ghavrel Send a noteboard - 02/08/2024 08:53:15 PM

I understand what you're saying, but it's hard to square this criticism of her with the breathless adulation Phelps was getting for how his Marfan's syndrome msde him "genetically built" for swimming.

And like Paul said, any nuanced discussion involving the affected woman's past record in boxing is being drowned out by hateful bigots who are seizing on the opportunity to be vile to a woman who has, as everyone here at least seems to agree, done nothing wrong.

"We feel safe when we read what we recognise, what does not challenge our way of thinking.... a steady acceptance of pre-arranged patterns leads to the inability to question what we are told."
