Seriously. It's time to stop these vicious attacks and ill-spirited comments regarding Caster Semenya.
It is certainly permissible to disagree with the premises of her racing for whatever tangible reasons you may have
BUT
to call her a man or to outright suggest that she is a man does nothing but make people on this site, and therefore runners and running fans in general, appear to be insecure trolls.
We are not the committee.
We are not the IAAF.
We do not make the rules.
You are just social media peons. That is all. No, you are not effecting change on society.
Therefore, just stop it with Semenya. She is an athlete. Just ... like ... any ... other ...athlete.
There is an older athlete who has mixed sex like Caster and did not compete because it wasn't allowed and also didn't fight to compete because of recognizing it was not fair and looked feminine in younger age and masculine in older age starting late 30s and ran fast in 40s and was able to run 49 for 400 and faster at all distances than Caster but these mixed sex people are just born the way they are.
Just looking at Caster and Wambui and how they behave like men is very telling too.
What it really comes down to is that she, as of today, has permission to compete. As a result, she is competing.
She has permission.
She has been cleared.
She is racing.
Not her fault.
Not her shame.
Leave her alone.
Easy solution to problem. All running governing bodies should ban ugly women from running professionally.
MAGA
I would be ok with Caster, but it's super obvious that she is tanking to keep herself viable. She is making her event a sham.

Him doing this IS his fault, because he's the main one doing it, he knows exactly what he's doing, he obviously enjoys sticking it to the women, and he doesn't care a bit about them, only himself.
In fact he's one of the worse jerks that I've ever seen, kind of like you, posting over and over on this thread in such an overbearing manner, and not caring anything about the women you're abusing.
HmmChanging someone's quote to suit your purposes makes one look more like a jerk.Anyway, I have my position on this matter. I am keeping it and I willdefend it.There is no proof that she is a guy. Scientifically, the accurate term is androgenous. Socially, the term is intersexed.This issue was played out when semenya was tested. She did her time out of sport.Again, after testing, she was declared allowed to compete.She is competing.She followed the rules, and, based on the rules, she is an athlete.It does not matter if Wilson, Muir, Savinova, or the like get beaten by her.She does not stride like a Rudisha, or a Komen before him.She does not even stride like Kiprop or Kemboi.There is enough evidence of secondary sex characteristics showing that her build, especially in the lower part, is female.But this is all irrelevant, for she was cleared, so she is doing nothing wrong.She is abusing nobody.I am abusing nobody.Conversely, try to stop abusing semenya.Capisce, dude?

Stop lying.
She was allowed to compete after lawyers and the CAS got involved, nothing to do with testing.
If anything, the tests provided evidence that Semenya should be nowhere near the women's events.
There arguably should not be any gender categories in Track and Field anyway if it is to be considered as a serious profession. Professions such as science, law or medicine do not have separate entry standards for men or women.
However, this arbritrary division of genders in Track and Field does exist for competition purposes and Semenya has been categorized as a woman. So leave her alone and let her compete. If anyone is against this then they should be calling for Track and Field to have no gender divisions or just to have seeded races based on time. That is the only way you can resolve this problem.

No intelligent person has ever categorized Semenya as a woman.
The only viable solution is to keep him and people like him completely out of women's events.
He's welcome to compete in the open division.
Wouldn't it be illegal for a real woman to dope to the gills with HGH and testosterone to reach Semenya levels of hormone and muscle mass?
If so why put the women at a disadvantage and make them run against this guy with testes inside his body?
dont know about you all, but i love watching a man screw over a field of women

You must really think you're brilliant doing this.Anyone sober and clean would find it stupid.It's called an argument.I am making one and I am defending it.When you have something real to post about this that shows that you really understand this issue and the deeper argument, you may as well stop talking and just watch the pretty colors.How about that?

Let me add a tidbit for the peanut gallery
Maga maga maga maga
You must all think you are so witty with your juvenile maga.
Making America Great Again has nothing to do with Semenya, who is South African.
Did you smoke your education?
No really. Did you?

Unfortunately he gets a pass because he's not a woman.

Exactly. Hopefully this travesty will soon be exposed and removed.

Oh sure.
It is easy to take a name that is not registered and fake a post so you have fun.
So, this must be the landing place of the drugged-up and dumb.
Here are several facts of which I am convinced are true.
1. You are not a runner
2. You frequent theme sites to troll them
3. You may have been a runner in the past but you went nowhere.
4. You fake people's posts to make yourself feel good because you are insignificant.
Don't like this?? Stop faking posts.
Mad at me? I hope so. Bring what you got.
I doubt you have the gumption to even start.
MAGA?
Nah, you're all punks.
