Hermaphrodites in sports

Because the human body is not that simple. That's like saying having a bigger nose makes you smell better. The science is complicated and confusing, I'm just saying, leave it up to the experts.

Now if she was a transgender..that would be a different story, but I think they have their own Games.

Sure, but which "scientists" do you believe? The ones paid by the IAAF, hers, or some "experts"? Science has claimed many hypothesis that later were proven inaccurate. I agree with whomever said that if I were 100% female, busted my ass every day, then lost to someone who may or may not have double the physical makeup I do quite maddening. I agree to let the scientists test her, but are you going to believe what all of them say?

Having that source of testosterone is a natural advantage over all other women.....why should she have an advantage over everyone else she competes with?

What is next keep tall people from playing basketball? They have an unfair advantage agasint me and I am 6'3"

Should fat guys not be allowed to be Offensive Linemen? or sumo wrestlers? Geniuses not allowed to play chess?

Micheal Jordon had an unfair advantage in Basket Ball for years. Maybe he had a 3rd ball we don't know about or maybe his bones were woven like a birds bones lighter and stronger allowing him to jump higher. He was obviously better than anyone near him.

Some people have an advantage. Some people are better.

If this had been a guy taping stuff up or someone that had chosen a sex change operation then I would be all for banning his ass. However this person is the way god made her. She is better and running and will have a harder time in other areas of her life. More power to her.

So then why separate guys and girls at all? Why have title 9, or the WNBA? If you are a chick, and good enough, then you play, but if not then sorry, nothing special for you.

because that's where they decided to draw the line at, it had to be drawn somewhere. It can't be all or nothing.
