Big congratulations to #TeamTaiwan for your ace performance! You’ve just made history by bringing home Taiwan's first @Premier12 baseball championship. Your teamwork & perseverance inspire us all!
As #TeamTaiwan’s Lin Yu-ting 林郁婷 prepares to fight for gold in women’s boxing at #Paris2024, she carries the strength of a nation. She has faced adversity & senseless attacks from beyond the ring with incredible grace & unwavering courage. We're cheering her on to the finish!
@JackMerched@iocmedia Don't let misinformation get the better of us! This is an itemized list of all the international competitions that Lin Yu-Ting participated in. She was born female and has complied with all applicable regulations set by the hosting organizations.
Challenging Taiwanese female Olympic boxer Lin Yu-ting's eligibility is not only a challenge to the International Olympic Committee but also a challenge to Taiwan as a whole.
Lin Yu-ting is a globally recognized top female boxer with 16 years of experience and many international championships. This is her second Olympics, where she is fully qualified to compete for a gold medal in the sport she loves.
Lin first started boxing as a child to protect her mother from domestic abuse. When she began, there were very few female boxers in Taiwan, so she trained with male boxers.
Inspired by her, more talented women in Taiwan have now joined boxing.
She was awarded Taiwan’s Best Female Athlete.
We feel personally attacked when she is humiliated, and the President of Taiwan has announced that the government will support her in taking legal action against the IBA for damaging her reputation.
Today, Lin will return to the ring once again. Let's cheer her on.
林郁婷在18歲時為台灣贏得了第一枚世界青年拳擊錦標賽金牌,她獲世錦賽和亞運雙冠,是世界公認的頂尖女���拳擊手。這是她第二次參加奧運,她將為她熱愛的拳擊運動站上金牌舞台。
林郁婷已被國際奧委會完全認可,符合2024年奧運會的參賽資格,她遵守了所有規定。對她資格的挑戰不僅是對國際奧委會誠信的質疑,也是在挑戰台灣的國家誠信。
為什麼質疑林郁婷的資格如此荒謬並令台灣人心碎?
台灣總統已經宣布將對國際拳擊協會(IBA)因損害林郁婷的名譽採取法律行動。林郁婷是我們國家長期培養的選手,曾獲得台灣全國最佳女性運動員獎項,並且現在在大學任教。
台灣感謝她為運動性別平權的貢獻,尤其是她從小為了保護母親免受家庭暴力而學習拳擊。
當林郁婷���入校隊時,台灣的女性拳擊手寥寥無幾,她只能和男性拳擊手一起訓練。由於她的努力,現在有更多優秀的台灣女性成為拳擊手。
林郁婷的故事啟發了許多年輕女性。全台灣人民看著她成長,她就像每個家庭的女兒,她委屈我們跟著流淚,她奪勝利我們感到榮耀。
今天,林郁婷將再次為榮譽而戰,全台灣以她為榮。
邀請你一起為這位堅強而正直的運動員林郁婷喝采!

Lin Yu-Ting secured Team Taiwan's first-ever final berth in boxing at the Olympic Games despite unfounded accusations over her gender eligibility. Whatever the outcome in the finals to be held today, Yu-Ting should be celebrated for her dedication as a professional athlete who had to fight battles both inside and outside of the ring. #IStandWithYuTing
Lin Yu-Ting was born female and has complied with all applicable medical regulations set by the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit. There is an astounding amount of evidence (her social security number, pictures from her childhood, gender checks from various boxing competitions) that proves Lin Yu-Ting is a biological female. Yet up till now, the IBA has not provided any evidence for their false accusations. Their tests were flawed and illegitimate.
We strongly condemn @RussiaUN’s @Dpol_un for the accusations against Olympic athletes, citing false claims from the discredited IBA. #Taiwan🇹🇼 female boxer Lin Yu-Ting’s IOC-confirmed eligibility for #Paris2024 is indisputable. #UN Security Council should have no place for lies!
Lin Yu-Ting is a domestic violence survivor. She learned boxing based on a girl’s wish : “protect mother from father’s violence “ .
Stop bullying her, stop bullying a girl who fighting for her and her family’s life.
不要過度簡化複雜的問題。性別可以用多種方式來判定,從生理外貌、染色體再到睾酮水準。
1️⃣ 生理外貌
根據身分證字號,林郁婷在 28 年前就被台灣政府判定為女性,這也表明外在因素表明她是生理女性。
2️⃣ 染色體檢測
林郁婷「並沒有」因為染色體檢測被判定為男性,唯一的爭議源自於國際拳擊協會(IBA)模糊且未公開的證據。但值得一提的是,IBA 與與台灣不友好的關係可能是原因之一,而且 IBA 也沒有提到染色體檢測。
3️⃣ 睾酮水準
林郁婷「有」通過了睾酮檢測並被判定為女性,這項檢測是國際奧委會(IOC)及多個運動員協會認可的,包括國際田徑總會。
上面三點都是事實。
那唯一的爭議是什麼呢?就是她的染色體到底是 XX 還是 XY?
首先,沒有證據表明她是 XY。即使她是 XY,XY 也可以被視為是女性,這就是為什麼國際協會如國際田聯(IAAF)和國際奧委會現在採用睾酮來判定的原因,染色體檢測單純就是過時了。
但這裡必需再次強調,林「並沒有」被檢測為 XY。
然後再強調一次,��要過度簡化複雜的問題,林郁婷的爭議可能是個單純的科學問題,也有可能是個複雜的政治問題。

Don't oversimplify the complicated questions. Male or female can be determined by various factors, from physical appearance, chromosomes to testosterone levels.
1. Physical Appearance
Lin *WAS* recognized as female by the Taiwanese government 28 years ago, as indicated by her social security number, which also suggests that her physical appearance aligns with being female.
2. Chromosomes Test
Lin was *NOT* identified as male by a chromosome test. The controversy comes from the IBA's sketchy and undisclosed evidence. It's worth mentioning that the IBA's unfriendly attitude against Taiwan may be the reason why they’re against Lin. And IBA did not mention anything about chromosomes test.
3. Testosterone Test
Lin *WAS* identified as female by a testosterone test, which is approved by the IOC and various athlete associations including IAAF (World Athletics)
These are the facts, as stated above.
So what is the only controversy? Is her chromosome XX or XY?
First, there is *NO* evidence shows that Lin is an XY. Even if she were, XY can still indicate female that’s why international associations like World Athletics (IAAF) and the IOC now use testosterone regulations. Chromosome tests are just simply outdated.
At this point I must emphasize again that Lin was NOT identified as male by a chromosome test.
And again, don’t oversimplify complicated questions, Lin’s situation can either be a simple science question or just the political one. We don’t know, so we discuss with facts.
As an avid sports fan, I have always admired the determination of our athletes—like our boxing contestant Lin Yu-ting 林郁婷, whose focus & discipline are truly inspiring. At #Paris2024 & beyond, we firmly & proudly support her & all #TeamTaiwan.
We have compiled information from various trusted sources and documentaries shot in Taiwan to properly inform the public of details about Lin, feel free to check out the article!
