Lots of information here, except what his chromosome test showed.

Ran out of room writing title. “Hyperandrogenous women” is the rest.

Why are other athletes holding back their true outrage? And this is an outrage.

I have a read a report that says he has no womb or ovaries but does have testicles in his abdomen. WHY EVER IS THIS MAN BEING ALLOWED TO COMPETE WITH WOMEN??? He does need a karyotyping to see what his chromosomes say about his gender.

Are there normal women who produce high levels of testosterone?

No womb, no ovaries, internal testes, testosterone levels three times that of an average women, and not required to take testosterone suppressant drugs, as he was before. When on those drugs, he was beaten on a number of occasions. And of course, no more DNA testing allowed...wouldn’t want to offend anyone, dontcha know.

Didn’t the Soviets have a number of their “female” a number of their athletes pulled from past Olympics for being men?

I expected the “Trans-thing” to end women’s sports. Looks like “hyperandrogemism” will end it even sooner than I reckoned. However, the “trans-thing” has made everybody afraid to say openly what they think.

yes, they are called ‘lesbians’

(I accidentally attended a lesbian rally at a local park- they scared the crap out of me - you would swear they were men, though they were clearly women)

Why are there women’s events in the first place? If anyone can be “gender fluid”, there’s really no such thing as men or women as a permanent construct. Make every event open to anyone who wants to compete - if the feminists have a problem with that policy, let them take it up with the LGBTXYZQ crowd (now there’s a competition I’d pay to watch).

A genetic female with a testosterone level as high as 3x normal female would not be allowed to compete... this person should not have been allowed to compete.

Most of the lesbians I have seen in real life haven’t seemed that athletic.

My point was about actual women with no intersex stuff that produce testosterone in male ranges or whatever used to be considered unfair before they stopped testing for it. Do they exist?

The solution is to make the next Olympics non-discriminatory by having all of the athletes qualify and compete against each other regardless of gender.

No more ‘men’s marathon’ or ‘women’s marathon’ - just a single marathon where the best runners compete. If a woman (who is equal to every man, don’t you know?) can qualify for a spot with the men then let her compete!

If she can’t then too bad.

See? Problem solved.

There were two men’s 800m in this Olympics and no women’s 800m. It was sick. Two of the participants in the women’s 800m were obviously men. Don’t need to see the dna test results it was that obvious.

The chromosomes are XY.

We pretty much know what his chromosome test would show. He’s got no uterus, no ovaries, yet he has testes. He’s a guy, even if a malformed one.

He ran the 800m in 1:55, which is fastest among women, but wouldn’t even qualify among the men. The fastest men’s time was 1:42.

This is a scam for second-tier male athletes to poach medals from the women. This could destroy female athletics. People should compete as women only if their chromosomes are XX.

I happened to catch this on TV
They were focusing on his face, and I was not really paying attention, until they panned out and showed the WOMEN he was running against.

I thought it was some men’s finals until they did that.

It was so odd- he does not look in any way female at all.
