‘Intersex’ Athlete Wins Gold Medal In Women’s 800M
The Daily Caller ^ | 8/20/16 | Peter Hasson

Posted on 08/21/2016 1:20:41 PM PDT by Mr. Mojo

South African runner Caster Semenya dominated the women’s 800-meter final Saturday in Rio, finishing well ahead of the competition to take home the gold medal.

Semenya is widely believed to be “intersex,” defined by the United Nations as people born with sex characteristics “that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies.” The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) last summer suspended International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) rules prohibiting athletes who exceed a testosterone threshold from competing in women’s track and field events, clearing the way for Semenya to compete in Rio.

The CAS ruling claimed that high testosterone levels didn’t necessarily give female athletes an advantage.

Semenya finished a whole second ahead of the next-closest finisher, setting a personal best with a time of 1:55.28.

> In one of the few times I watched something other than the sprints and hurdles, I saw it in the 800 prelims. The first thing I thought was “there is a guy running with those girls.”

First thing I noticed was her 5' o'clock shadow, particularly the mustache outline.

Yep, it’s all just a gimmick to compete against easier opponents.

Short version. He's a homosexual who suffers from sexual disorientation. A freak.

It just goes to show what we always knew. Men are superior to women.

Curiously so called intersex people will destroy women’s sports.

don’t they check x’s and y’s?

or are we only determining gender by outward appearance and or which gender the person feels they are at the moment these days?

Yeah, this is why we’re starting to see stories from Hollywood women on just how whiny, annoying, and misogynistic gay men really are. In the view of women, they’re getting too big for their britches. The women were OK with them when it was just one cute unassuming guy in the break room who they felt safe with because they knew he didn’t want anything sexually from them. But that one cute little guy has turned into 50 of them, they’re getting shrill and pissy, and they’re starting to hog the special PC pay raises and promotions.

In the view of the women, who are traditionally at the top of the downtrodden-status heap and prime beneficiaries of special treatment, the gay guys are getting too big of a piece of the action. The women are starting to push back. What’s next: increasing bias and sexual harassment complaints against gay guys.

The only way to do this fairly?

Have Olympic Intersex Games.

Schedule them during the off years...

...in Mecca.

I read somewhere that the Olympics no longer do X or Y testing.
