The Paris Olympics 2024 began a few weeks ago but has already been mired in several controversies. In the latest incident, Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who identifies as intersex, is under fire after defeating Italian boxer Angela Carini, who abandoned the match after being severely hit and bleeding profusely. Imane was disqualified from the World Championships last year but was allowed to take part in this yearā€™s Olympics. Now, JK Rowling has misgendered the Algerian boxer in a controversial post. In her message, she describes Imane's smirk as that of a man who knows he is being protected by a misogynistic sporting establishment and is enjoying a woman in distress.
