Intersex athletes are making a mockery of our sport

Didn't ETH beat Mboma at the Olynmpics?

ETH beat a high school kid still learning to run the 200m. The 200m record is toast once Mboma's develops sprint mechanics. Right now she look more like a 400/800 runner which makes since that's what she was until this summer.

So???

Does XY always beat XX?

Tina Clayton beat Masilingi at World U20, and she is younger than Masilingi.

Seven sprinters beat Dutee Chand in the opening round of the Olympics (45th overall out of 54) , and Chand is 25 yr old.

So why didn't Chand beat the 44 women ahead of her?

Simply put i agree. It's ridiculous.

So Mboma has all 4? I'm pretty sure I read somewhere she isn't intersex which would mean 1 and 2 are not relevant to her. Could be wrong

The Namiban Olympic Committee has declared her not to be.

But, make no mistake about it, she's XY [along with high T etc]. The rules would absolutely, for definite, not apply to her if she wasn't.

The same Namibian Olympic Committee that pulled her from the 400M and placed her in the 200M? I wonder why they did that?

What some of you fail to realize is that the intersex athletes are the best thing that has happened to the sport in a long time. The sport was already on its last legs and now some of you need a scapegoat so you cry intersex…intersex! The truth is that with a little imagination one can see how it is something which could be utilized to draw more viewers. Many of you clowns are looking a gift horse in the mouth. Intersex is a gift to the sport.

There should be two categories of competition, as there are today, but instead of being men's and women's, it should be XX chromosome category and Open. This solves both the intersex and transgender problems.

Men's athletic competition is really open anyway. My daughter was on a boy's team for a few years during high school and while certainly not common, it isn't rare in youth sports to see high level girls competing at the boys level.

Why not allow/encourage physical contact during races. Intentional contact has made basketball the #1 sport in the world. That would surely boost track's viewship !! Now that I think about it....get rid of the nets around the discus, hammer and jav competitors, Let those things fly onto the track! That would also attract more viewers ! Think of the drama !

Well at least you are thinking outside the box but personal safety still matters unless we are going back to the gladiator days. People sometimes solved matters with a duel but at least you are trying to tweak things. And I would leave it at that except then the morons would accuse me of not recognizing that you are not in any way serious.

Runners should be able to knock other runners over. Some should even ride horses. Anything for viewers. Thank you for your typically enlightened contribution.

You follow me around dude. Not sure why you are so obsessed with me.

100% agree

Women category was always arbitrary at best anyway

Looking forward to see fast racing in the women category soon (once Mboma develops and Niyonsaba gets the hang of the 3000m)

You know nothing about women's sports.

the manlier the women appear to be, the less popular the sport becomes.

I am interested in the issue of intersex participation in women's sport. You aren't - your ignorance shows that. You are only interested in yourself - which explains why you think my participating in these threads is "following you around". That's your NPD talking.

Again you cannot stop following me around. You have never offered anything on the intersex subject other than your racism and your apparent penis envy toward intersex individuals. This is bizarre and unhealthy. Please find some hobbies and you may yet enjoy life.

Well, I only watched 3 Diamond League races

The men 1500m (wanted to know how/why Jakob lost). The men 200m (I did not know result. Wanted to know/see if Kerley could put together a good one) and the women 200m (wanted to see Mboma). That’s it. The women 200m made the list.

Don’t pretend that the women 200m is not getting more coverage this year. It is typically a terrible/boring race. I probably watched more women 200m races this year than I did in my entire life. Don’t get me wrong. The races are still slow. But I liked seeing Mboma improve on the WJR. She can keep doing that next year. Then I hope she can bring the record to 20.XX. People will be watching that.

Runners want to run. Runners want to compete. The whole intersex issue is hard - saying they can’t run or can’t compete isn’t acceptable. Shutting the door on the one sport that might be keeping them sane.

I haven’t heard of anyone who changed genders just for the competitive advantage; which makes it different than doping. I don’t know the answer, but I do know it’s not going to come from me - a middle aged white man.

We have two categories for a reason.

XY's have a biological advantage. That's also true for XY persons with a vagina (because they have internal testes and high testosteron).

They should be able to compete, but not against women. If you have any sex characteristics of a male, that should disqualify you from competing as a female. Simple. This isn't hard when you stop giving in to the emotional whims of woke idiots.

This. Stop letting intellectually weak people Control the language. That’s all this is. They’ve created a dialogue that is dictated by language they control. Inane words out these wonks mouths like “Misgender” is stuff that should be laughed into a corner but their little ideological mafia will come for you if you don’t lockstep with the cultural Marxism
