As a Taiwanese legislator, I want to tell the international community that Lin Yu-Ting has always been a true woman from birth to now, and I am willing to repeat this as many times as needed. Taiwan has long faced pressure from China, and we need many democratic allies in the world. It’s not easy for our athletes to compete in international events. This time, due to misinformation from the International Boxing Association (IBA), many people were misled. Many Taiwanese are very upset and angry. Polish track and field athlete Ewa broke multiple world records, but because she tested as having XY chromosomes, public opinion erupted, leading to her world records being erased. She almost took her own life as a result. I hope more Polish realize that rumors can harm people. Our Taiwanese athlete Lin Yu Ting has been a woman from birth to the present. #IStandWithLinYuTing

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性拳擊手。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。當林郁婷加入校隊時，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！ #IStandWithLinYuTing #Olympic2024 #LinYuTing #Taiwan #Boxer

Lin Yu-Ting was born a woman. She has been female since birth. She is participating in the boxing tournament at the Olympic Games Paris 2024 with her strength and has complied with all applicable medical regulations set by the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit, which have been consistently applied throughout all qualification events. Lin Yu-Ting is a victim of the sudden and arbitrary decision by the IBA. Up to now, the IBA has not provided any evidence. The IBA should establish a legitimate and clear gender testing procedure, instead of repeatedly and baselessly claiming that “Taiwan is a part of China.” This cannot erase the fact that Lin Yu-Ting represents Taiwan as a female athlete. We reiterate that everyone has the right to participate in sports without discrimination. Moreover, anyone who supports the rights of female athletes should stand against this bullying behavior. The attack on Lin Yu-Ting is a form of international bullying. But she never gives up, and she has reached the final despite the eligibility dispute. “The more we’re bullied, the stronger we become.” We, the Taiwanese people, will always stand with her and be her strongest support. 💪

@baymodell @dabowagaga The IBA made conflicting statements about the tests casting serious doubts about the results: - "these test results show they have high levels of testosterone" [1] - "the athletes did not undergo a testosterone examination" https://t.co/7ql9eUVWnA] https://t.co/HvtU38V3lU
