He's NOT intersex. He has XY chromosomes, which means that he's male. He may have a condition in which his genitals don't appear like it should. However, the rest of his body is a male body.
Also, testosterone isn't the only difference. The genetics of having XY chromosomes would give that person greater bone density. Their stance would be different due to a woman's need to have a pelvic region that would safely accommodate child birth. That would add extra leverage to throw a punch. The shoulders are different as well which means 50% greater shoulder strength to the male, according to the National Institute of Health. This has been programmed into the very genetic differences between men and women. The testosterone may add muscle strength but the physicality of the male, denser bones, pelvic and shoulder differences, greater lung capacity, bigger hearts.....all add to the advantages of one that is born with XY chromosomes.
To add, Ali had greater boxing skills than Foreman but Ali also had the advantage of having the bone density, the shoulder strength to counter punch, the leverage of his male stance, male lung capacity and the strength of his larger male heart to offset the muscle size of Foreman. The Italian boxer doesn't have any of those advantages over her XY opponent to offset the testosterone advantage.
Genetics is exceptionally important and as for the outrage? I have 2 grand daughters who play rugby. This scares me and I have every right to be afraid and outraged if this happened to the girls that I love.

No one said that children aren't smart. Of course they are. For one thing, they lack life experience. They can't speak of things that they haven't experienced in life. Secondly, they should should show respect to their elders, especially their parents, due to this experience and the adults bear the brunt of taking care of their child's needs. If a child wishes to speak to an adult, they should wait until the adults are done speaking and then speak, asking their question or giving their opinion as desired. That's when the adult should treat them as human beings, explaining things as best they can what's appropriate.
This is an ongoing process, starting when the child is very small so they know the protocols right from early childhood. Adulthood isn't just the passage to time. It's a ritual that's completed and a stage of life that's earned. That's why people have had the rites of passage, that the young go through, to show that they're ready to take on adult responsibilities. This has been the norm for tens of thousands of years. Letting children interrupt and blurt out whatever's on their mind is detrimental to their development. Humility is very important to human development and to living a life of contentment with courage. The "I'm important" view is only encouraging narcissistic behaviour and that undermines future relationships.

You take a hostage and tell those who would stop you that you'll do them harm and you will do it if necessary. Then you treat that hostage with kindness, show vulnerability and that you're not REALLY a bad person. Once you've done that, you show the hostage that you trust them, just a little bit...not fully but just enough to show that you're a good guy. The feigned trust, because you don't really trust the hostage, will bring a feeling of comfort to that prisoner and lo and behold, you don't have to watch that hostage as closely because you've convinced him that you'd never hurt him. That eliminates, or at least mitigates, the damage that this hostage could cause if you treat him badly. You've convinced him that you won't hurt him because basically you're good guy but in reality, you have to carry out your threat when your opponents come after you. You WILL harm them when push comes to shove.
And you don't think that's manipulative. Like I said, you're quite naive.

So you really think that the Italian boxer hadn't heard of this stuff before? That it hadn't been discussed over the last 7 or 8 years as she was working towards this goal? That she hadn't been told that if she didn't go along with it, she'd be a bigot and a transphobe? That doubting it may cause a person to end herself? That this pressure may even have caused her to believe it?
Then, when she does face it personally, it's on the biggest stage of her life. What does she do? Protest, get blasted on the world media and be kicked out of the Olympics? Or go along with it and hope for the best? So she goes along with it and then finds out the reality. There's no way she can beat this man and it breaks her heart.....but that's not all, now the years of manipulation will have it's effect. She gets called onto the carpet, and the implications are everywhere. She is a bigot and transphobe and she may even believe it because if she strongly believes that it wasn't fair, she wouldn't apologise. Everything has cornered her and she admits she's wrong. She is now an adherent of the ideology.
This is the same type of manipulation that one, who ends up Stockholm Syndrome, has gone through. One is manipulation by a hostage taker. The other is manipulation through social and authoritarian pressure that has been ongoing for a number of years. They both end up in the same place and they've both been changed forever. That's the end result for this boxer. There's no name for it, not like the person suffering from Stockholm Syndrome has their condition named. She's a pariah to this segment of the population, just like the other would be if they betrayed the hostage taker. She's been manipulated for years so when she has to deal with it, she responds in the way her manipulators want.
That's the comparison. That's why they're somewhat similar.
