Title: World 800-meter champion has male, female sex organs
Post by: Tiger Wench on September 10, 2009, 07:25:21 PM
Wow - so what do you do with her?  Does she compete as a woman?  Compete as a man?  In one fell swoop, she discovered (PUBLICALLY) that she is not totally female and in fact is sterile, and unable to have kids... was this anyone's business?  What about her right to have her medical facts kept private?

SYDNEY (AP) - World 800-meter champion Caster Semenya of South Africa has male and female sexual organs, the Sydney Morning Herald said on Friday, posing an ethical and political quandary for athletics' ruling body.

The Herald said extensive physical examinations of 18-year-old Semenya ordered by the IAAF have shown she is technically a hermaphrodite.

Medical reports indicate she has no ovaries, but rather has internal male testes, which are producing large amounts of testosterone.

The newspaper said the IAAF was trying to contact Semenya to inform her of the results. After dominating her race at the world titles in Berlin last month, Semenya was given blood and chromosome tests as well as a gynecological examination.

"This is a medical issue and not a doping issue where she was deliberately cheating," IAAF spokesman Nick Davies was quoted as saying by the newspaper.

"These tests do not suggest any suspicion of deliberate misconduct but seek to assess the possibility of a potential medical condition which would give Semenya an unfair advantage over her competitors. There is no automatic disqualification of results in a case like this."

The IAAF has said Semenya would probably keep her medal because the case was not related to a drug matter. But the Herald said an alternative possibility was to award a second gold to the runner-up, Janeth Jepkosgei from Kenya.

She can go fuck herself....literally.

Seriously, I don't see what all the fuss is about. She's got a dick ... big deal. As roided up as our track wimmens have been lately, we have no right to throw stones. Marion Jones was so full of horse juice, she could have competed (and placed) in the Kentucky Derby.

I'm amazed that it took a month to figure this out. Pull down his/her shorts and, WHAMMO!, mystery solved.

I took the time to read the full article. (shakes fist in the air and curses Evelyn Woods). I think the deal breaker for her is the fact that she has a set of nuts. That should disqualify it from competing as a chick. The testosterone jolt these things provide trump the aerodynamic drag they cause.

On the lighter side, I bet she's a squirter when she cums.

She has neither a dick nor nuts - she has a vagina and testicles in place of her ovaries - they are inside her body.  And being a black woman from South Africa, this is probably as big a shock to her as anyone.  Odds are good that she never was tested for this type of thing before.  She didn't have a period, but most female athletes don't, so I am sure this never crossed her mind.  One doctor who commented on the article said that in cases like this, the extra testosterone does not provide a benefit, because the genetic abnormality does not allow the body to make use of the hormone anyway.

This story intrigues me and I really wanted to talk about the Pandora's Box this opens up - even more Big Brother stuff... but I guess I overestimated my audience.  

Glenn, I love you but you are a pig.

You brought up great points in your first post.  I have exhausted most of my brain cells tonight due to liquor consumption and posting pictures of hot Auburn girls.  The biggest problem here that I can see is your mention of the blatant disregard for doctor/patient confidentiality.  The public announcement of the information was definitely not handled correctly...but she's also an athlete and has been under a huge microscope lately...so now it is what it is.

Sorry, Glenn's shit is the tits. I guffawed at the aerodynamics reference.  +4

As opposed to the more obvious PUBICALLY?

I thought her name was Caster Semenya?

Nothing.  That's what Al Gore invented the interwebs for.

Sorry sweetie, but if that box has a dick in it - I don't want to open it up. Having testicles, no matter where they are located, is considered having a set of nuts.

Atheletes lead highly scrutinized lives. It goes with the territory. Had this been an average run of the mill schmuk, then I'd be alarmed and would question the release of information. But the manner in which she destroyed the competition in Berlin leads me to believe some competitive advantage was gained by this extra equipment she has in her.

I could be a Rocket Scientist.  About three weeks ago, on the News, they were wondering about her sex and after one look...I could tell that either she has taken a lot of testosterone or she's really a he, but he had a sex change.  Being a Hermaphrodite makes sense.
