Alright, let’s talk about this Imane Khelif, eh? Folks been gossiping, saying all sorts of things. Is she a man? That’s what they’re yapping about. Well, lemme tell ya what I heard, and you can make up your own mind.
Now, I ain’t no fancy city person, ya know? I just hear things. And they’re saying this Imane Khelif, this boxer girl from Algeria, she’s strong. Real strong. Like, knock-you-down-in-a-second strong. Heard she beat some Italian girl in, what was it, 46 seconds? That’s fast, even for me milkin’ the cows!
- People are talkin’, see? They saw her picture, standin’ on that podium in Paris, getting a medal. Looked like a strong woman to me, but folks always gotta find somethin’ to complain about.
- They’re saying, “She’s gotta be a man! No woman can be that strong.” Well, I’ve seen some strong women in my day, lemme tell ya. Worked harder than any man I know.
But these city folks, they got their rules and their “gender this” and “gender that.” They’re all worried about who’s fightin’ who. Heard they got some big organization, the Olympics Committee or somethin’, and they say she’s a woman. Born a woman, they say.
Now, I ain’t got no reason to doubt ‘em. They probably checked and double-checked. Wouldn’t want no man sneakin’ into the women’s fightin’, would they? That just wouldn’t be right. But the talkin’ don’t stop. People see what they wanna see, hear what they wanna hear.
They’re sayin’ this whole thing is a big mess. This 46-second fight, it got everyone riled up. They’re questionin’ all the rules, sayin’ maybe they ain’t good enough. Maybe they gotta check better, make sure everyone’s playin’ fair.
But I tell ya, it’s just a fight. A strong woman beat another woman. Happens all the time. Why all the fuss? Maybe it’s ‘cause she’s from Algeria, maybe it’s ‘cause she’s so quick. People always get suspicious when somethin’ ain’t ordinary.
And all this talk about her bein’ a man? Heard there ain’t no proof. Just folks gossiping, makin’ up stories. Seems to me, some people just can’t handle a strong woman. They gotta find a reason to bring her down, say she’s cheatin’ or somethin’.
Well, I say, let her fight. If the Olympics folks say she’s a woman, then she’s a woman. And if she knocks you down in 46 seconds, well, then you just weren’t strong enough. That’s the way I see it, anyway. No need for all this fancy talk and suspicion. Just good ol’ fashioned hard work and strong muscles. That’s what wins fights, whether you’re a man or a woman.
So, is Imane Khelif a man? Nah, I don’t think so. She’s just a strong woman, a good boxer. And that’s all there is to it. People should just let her be, let her fight, and stop with all the gossip. They got better things to do, I reckon.
Now, I gotta go feed the chickens. This talkin’ makes me hungry. Hope that girl keeps on winnin’, whoever she is.
And that’s all I got to say about that. Don’t go stirrin’ up trouble where there ain’t none. Just let folks be.
