Court Rules Caster Semenya Must Take Meds to Lower Testosterone Levels to Compete

The reason? She has an unfair advantage because her testosterone levels are unusually high.
What next - "You have unusually long legs, you'll have to have some cut off to compete" ?
Or maybe "Your basketballers are taller than ours, yours will have to run in channels to make it fair" ?

This may not be PC, but her body look mannish, she also runs like a man, and she runs faster than any woman can over that distance. Is that unfair to the other competitors? I think it is.

If somebody takes performance enhancing drugs, that's unfair. Her body naturally produces the same effect. Not her fault obviously, but it's not as they say, a level playing field. Or in this case, a level running track.

The great Ethiopian distance runners of the past lived in a country high above sea level, hence their bodies performed far better at sea level, was this an unfair advantage?

The woman is unusually gifted, and so is/was every record breaker in history.

Leave the woman alone and let her be brilliant in her selected discipline!

Glad that you agree, Adrian.
Glad that you, too, have an opinion, Den.

On a similar topic, I've been reading Ben Elton's "Identity Crisis".
It's a murder story in a politically correct world: the Policeman considers whether two biological males, identifying as women, and in a relationship, should be looked on as lesbians, while two biological males, identifying as opposite sexes are possibly in a straight relationship. "She" is replaced by "Zie" when referring to a man self-identifying as female. It's actually been educational, as I've had to learn the meaning of "cis."

I think the people who had to make the decision were damned if they did and damned if they didn't.
