Shouldn’t he have to give up his gold medal? Other Olympians who were competing as the wrong sex forfeited? If he says he was always a woman, then he had no right to compete as a man.

I just wonder how all the other competitors feel now knowing that they lost to a girl?

Don't they test hormones in the Olympics, going back to when China was accused of using hormones to enhance their female athletes? I wonder how that would work, with all the drug tests they do on athletes now. Nobody's thought through this stuff with gender choice.

What's going to happen when a woman who pretends she's a man wants to compete in a sport such as pro basketball and finds out she'd be able to play as a woman? Can she be denied a place on the woman's team?

I don't understand how anyone will grow up normal in a world of gender ambiguity.
