Because women wouldn’t ever get a shot at competing, then.

Can’t we all just be woke enough to accept the fact that a female Olympic contender with testicles will always be a faster runner than a female Olympic contender who has been saddled with ovaries?

But by that logic, why doesn’t she compete against men? If she doesn’t fit into the sex binary, and her hormones levels are closer to that of a man, surely that would make more sense? She wouldn’t need to alter her natural testosterone levels at all.

However, we use some of those gifts of nature to come up with classes of competitors to make competitions more fair and interesting. For example, a woman who is 6'6" 200lbs would not be able to compete in the UFC because their highest weight class is 145lbs.

I’ve got PCOS and have struggled with excess testosterone too but actually don’t find this that ridiculous. It’s obvious to me that when I’ve had higher levels of excess testosterone I have also experienced surges in strength. I remember doing one of those strength test things with a friend who is almost exactly the…

This woman retains internal testicles that give her an unfair advantage over other female athletes.

What. No. There are clear differences in performances between the genders. A woman would never get on the medal stand. Ever. (Excluding events such as shooting, equestrian, surfing, etc- more skill based than pure strength). While age differences may hinder the athletes in terms of performance, the difference in…

Tell me where you live, what nationalities you are if you've immigrated, and what you're religion is or lackthereof and I will give you the atrocity that was committed by them.

Totally stole the show.
That was awesome haha

What did Japan ever do to Carlos Correa? He’s having a great season!

Corea, huh?

As far as I’m aware, Caster’s testosterone level is three times that of the average woman. If you’re going to allow her to race against women without taking any hormone blockers, what’s the point in separating sport by sex in the first place?

Seemed to have bounced back quickly. Well done China and Corea[sic]

This guy’s a lot of fun at parties.

Think of all the millions killed thanks to teeny tiny Vatican City.

This will be the first Olympics where my Mario Kart skills will make my country proud and shut my mother up once and for all!

Given his desire to repeal Article 9, Abe’s more of a Wario.

Come on dude, every fucking country has commited atrocities across their history, every one of them. Let’s put aside that bullshit for 2 weeks every 4 years.

Semenya has the word “semen” in it. Dead give away.
