how long does it take to do a cheek swab and check XX vs XY?
it’s not rocket science, it’s high school science!
To: JoeProBono
The BC in itself proves nothing. The issue is not whether she passed for a female at birth, but whether she has certain genetic advantages that make her too male for fair competition.
I could be wrong, but I bet even with hermaphrodites they choose one or the other gender and run with it. Or do they put “male/female” on their BCs?

Why did they have to see the birth certificate?
Are there British birthers too?
Wasn’t her word good enough?

Funny; the birth status of some athlete gets more ‘official’ scrutiny than that of the President of the United States.

Well these running times establish records and those go in the history books.

how long does it take to do a cheek swab and check XX vs XY? I thought gender tests were done by urinalysis. They give the athlete a specimen cup and send them into the bathroom. When the athlete emerges from the bathroom, the lab tech runs in to see if the toilet seat is up or down...

"Well these running times establish records and those go in the history books." Oh, silly me. I didn't realize that it went into history books. Unlike Presidents who are never of such significance that they get into history books. ;-)

I read something about this today where it was indicated the results would take weeks to release because it was complicated.
Someone in the past was stripped of a medal because she wasn’t the sex that she thought she was because she had something in her test...and she tried to commit suicide.
Apparently, it can be quite complicated...and areas where there are shades of gray.

the last name is "Semenya"?
you just can't make it up.

This whole gender thing used to be simple. Now it’s too confusing.
Maybe Obama can borrow her/his BC.

Don’t women have Adam’s apples? You can see it on Ann Coulter too.
