And apparently the allowed women’s T limit is still well above what an actual XX female would have. But it is still better than nothing, like when Semenya and the other intersex non-females were allowed to compete with as much T as their testes produced against actual XX females. That was the rule in effect for the infamous 2016 Olympic women’s 800 meters. (zero medals to females)

Better would be to ban intersex entirely from women’s sports. Should be female only.

I see it heading towards tiered levels of femaleness. Something like “normal”, “dyke”, and “freak”. Those terms wouldn’t be used but they’d be the basic categories.

Sounds harsh but I don’t know how you’d get level playing fields otherwise.

Meanwhile mens sports is unaffected by the issue because max natural testosterone is always allowed as the potential, if no probable, winner.
