It seems like common sense to prioritize testing the people who do not look like women, but idk maybe thats just me.🤣

So you wouldn't just do an assessment on every athlete with male testosterone levels?

That's what they should be doing.
You cant know until you test them, unless they look like men. Which, again, is the reason you prioritize testing them.
Idk why youre assuming that there's all these regular women with T levels anywhere close to 10x the normal amount that are slipping under the radar.

Agreed, and the fact that they explicitly state they don't kinda suggests they're looking for loopholes to push certain athletes through.
Do you not realize what youre saying?
>Oh so you dont want to test all the people with covid?
>you dont want to test all the dopers?
The point of testing is to obtain the result. You cant know the result until you test. What you said doesnt make any sense. 🤣
This is good. The faster the world sees men shouldn't be competing in women's sports, the faster we get laws that ban men from women's sports.
All it takes is a genuine man with a flopping sausage and flopping plums to declare they are a female and go set every women's WR and this can end.
Obviously whoever does this will get bombarded with hate mail, but who wants to take one for the team? You will forever be the savior of women's sports. I bet you'll get a Presidential Medal of Freedom. You have to be good enough to smash the sprint world records and a few distance WRs to boot. The key is setting the sprint WRs because that's what mainstream media looks at. In my prime college days I could set 100-1500. But I know there's way better runners than me out there in their prime right now, ready to go.

You have become distracted by your own argument. XX individuals do not produce male levels of testosterone unless they possess also male gonads. The line drawn in the sand by the IAAF rules is over levels of testosterone and those individuals that exceed the prescribed levels are XY. They are male. An XX with male levels of testosterone would be medically unwell.
Maybe you became distracted while reading?
I already provided examples of XX women who could have testosterone levels within the male range. Late onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia is one example. Some effected individuals are not medically unwell. (quote)
"Could have". Maybe you could give an example of such an athlete. Or are they like unicorns?

If it is all about race, as the paper claims, then I wonder why we have seen none of this in respect of Semenya's successor in Athing Mu?

Let people see the horror of all time greats like Hassan and Gidey be robbed of gold medals.
Let people see incredible young talents like Athing Mu and Gabby Thomas be ran through as if theyre standing still.
And let all the World Records fall.
It's not fair to these incredible women, but their sacrifice wont be in vain.
OK. I guess I can go along with that play book :-) :-)
You know they had this at the Tokyo Olympics right?

I'm sure you know the answer, but they want to distract with the race angle. What woman, other than Semenya does a double arm bicep flex after her wins? I have never ever seen such except for Semenya. That, plus her buccaneering gallop are dead giveaways.

That is not true! You need functioning testes in order to produce testosterone levels in the male range. Apart from CAH, this only happens if you have XY chromosomes. CAH is not on the banned list of conditions by the World Athletics Federation, hence she has XY chromosomes.
