Update: 2025-11-10
Description
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) is expected to ban men identifying as women from competing in female events before the next games, The Times reported on Monday.
The pending decision follows a comprehensive review examining whether males retain physical advantages even after lowering testosterone levels, according to The Times, which reported its sources say the move will be likely be announced in February. The issue came under intense scrutiny during the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris when two boxers won gold medals despite earlier disqualifications for failing to meet gender eligibility criteria.
