Yes, a male with DSD, which is what every reputable expert like Emma Hilton were saying. There has to be consequences for the people that enabled this to happen, it's not a super complicated topic and there was no shortage of experts that were willing to help the IOC understand the issue.

I wouldn't hold your breath, its the same issue as Semenya and they're still trying to find a way for him to compete, yes there's the added issue of a man beating up a woman in this case but other than bad PR, I don't see why the IOC would react differently

Less enthused after skimming it...
Bugger all data supporting the use of puberty blockers, no reliable data.

There has been a case at the Supreme Court in London over the last two days about the definition of woman and the consequences, the world has gone mental
