>>I’m confused - in college I was taught that all distinctions based on gender were just societal constructs - so why are we having separate men’s and women’s events at all?<<

For reference, gender is a “social construct,” sex is a biological one.

Good point.

From the article:

“Stofile continued: “No one doubts her gender anymore. Now the issue is of the percentages of her gender; this is as disgusting as it is unethical. Caster is a woman, she remains our heroine.”

Maybe the first thing these folks ought to do is figure out what they’re arguing about!

The press is purposely and inappropriately using the term "hermaphrodite" to push the homosexual agenda.

There has never once been a single documented case of a hermaphrodite mammal.
