It doesn't make sense Going by the Olympic standards too much testosterone makes you a man, even if you don't identity as one and you weren't born one. Olympics also have kids compete v adults and there aren't always adult winners, despite the fact adults will be physically and biologically more capable, being post pubescent. It doesn't guarantee anything. Or at least, not in every sport. It needs to be viewed as a case by case basis after extensive studies and a better understanding. Until then, like I say, set up a tertiary category and even a fourth one for trans women, then decide what to do when more is known. For example; Cage fighting; you can be pretty certain the outcome there will be grim Curling; Who knows? That's more about skill Link to comment

No evidence of illegal drugs either? Semenya was born intersex. Actually is male, every cell in "her" body has XY chromosomes and the reason why "her" testosterone levels are/were so high is that "she" has internal undescended testes. Presumably at birth was assigned female as what actually should be his bawsack was actually formed incompletely and resembled a vagina. At that point there was no suspicion of him being anything other than a girl. In reality, it's really a decent club level male athlete....but club level male athletes are still generally around the same performance levels as elite female athletes. By suppressing his testosterone, his performance levels were reduced so that the real women managed to outperform him comfortably. But was then decided that as he wasn't taking the testosterone artificially that forcing him to take drugs to reduce it would be against his human rights. Link to comment

Real women have XX sex chromosomes Real men have XY chromosomes Its a myth to say that either sex only produces the hormones that Joe Public associates with being male or female......males do produce oestrogen in small quantities amd females produce testosterone in small quantities. By giving a transsexual the main sex hormone produced by the opposite sex, you can artificially induce some physical (and emotional/psychological too) traits associated with that sex.....so a female to male will grow more body and facial hair, will be able to increase muscle mass if using the correct diet and physical training regime.......and you might induce them to go bald on top. Male to females will grow breasts, put on body fat to make their hips more curvaceous and their body hair may reduce a bit. But ultimately you cannot alter the basic genetic code assigned on conception. You can perform plastic surgery to make a male to female transsexual look almost indistinguishable from the neck downwards to a real female. And at least you are in this instance removing the testes, the main source of their male hormones. But in most cases it's difficult to achieve a difference facially that is truly convincing. Female to male genital surgery is much more complex...the best way to describe it is that its a bit like making a swiss roll out of their labia to achieve a neo-penis...but its not very convincing, doesnt achieve erection and often the urethra is left underneath in roughly same position as it would be naturally and they still need to sit down to pee. And in this case, in most instances you arent touching the internal female organs so the uterus and ovaries etc remain. You cannot change a person's sex. Ever 1 5 Link to comment

How can you say something is nonsense if you refuse to read both sides? Its not for me to dispute, as I won't claim to know more about the human body than him, I'll simply tentatively claim, that what psychologists, biologists and neurologists thought about sex/gender 30 years ago is undoubtedly different to what they think know. What TCs description was, was a general rule of thumb, but as stated, and anyone who knows anything about science (not that I know much) there are almost always exceptions to the rule in the animal kingdom.

Ke1t Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 So on a chromosomal level you can't change your gender, but on an aesthetic level you can. So you're both right. The bottom line is fuck who you want, and sport shouldn't be segregated. Make men, women, adults, kids, gays, straights, Jews, blacks, whites, and the handicapped all compete in the same competition... and if you can't compete at a winning level then at least you'll get a prize for taking part. That's that one solved. What's next on the list o shit to argue about? Link to comment

Very complicated issue imo and I bet the ruling bodies (iaaf etc) wish that semenya was someone else’s problem. From her pov she has been a “female” all her life and has done nothing wrong in entering and winning women’s races. From her competitors pov they will have a very strong case to be completely aggrieved that they have lost out on medals because a man was winning their races. I didn’t agree with all the points raised as eg allowing everyone else to legally dope sounds a bit ropey ! But, it certainly highlighted the complexities and I can’t see any solution being satisfactory to both sides. Problem with the addition of trans races is that are there enough of them of elite ability to make this a worthwhile exercise? Link to comment
