Gender Test
Seriously? How "extremely complex, difficult" can a gender test really be? Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. That is all.
Gender test requested for 18-year-old runner - ESPN

You might want to do a Google search on "ambiguous genitalia". You'll find a whole bunch of links to various conditions which make it not so black and white. |

As insanely dumb as that movie is, there's still a great joke in there that I use all the time. He gets into the back of his minivan as someone asks what he knows about soccer and he replies back, "Not much. All I know is I have a lot of balls." as they soccer balls come pouring out the back. It's so stupid but it cracks me up. |

I am thinking RomaGoth's method is somewhat faster. Wasn't there a question in the original Trivial Pursuit asking who was the only athlete at the 1976 Olympics not given a sex test? This has had me believing for years that this was routine at major international competitions.

Until such time as the results come back, the runner shall be referred to as "Caster GaGa".

Well played. I suppose I will now have to look it up to validate this thread, no?

Technically, yes. However, I think given the history of threads around here you're pretty much free to ignore it.

Seriously, how humiliating would it be to have to endure this? I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

So it will take the IAAF until November to come up with a politically correct response to this? Come on now. Make a call

This is an extremely grey area. This is not a normal case and of course they want to take time to decide how to handle it. This person is not exactly a woman and is competing in women's sports. The reason that women don't compete against men is that it is no competition (on a comparable level).
Everyone is so concerned with how fair it is to this person, what about how fair it is to every other competitor? |

Well this person is not exactly a man either. I assume that the IAAF has some sort of guidelines or rules that set the requirements for competing men and competing women. There should be something for this area as well. This is not the first time this type of situation has occurred. According to IAAF, there were similar athletes who competed as women in the Atlanta Olympics. Maybe they need to conduct tests on all the athletes to get confirmation of gender before they actually allow them to race.

I can already imagine the 2040 Olympics, with people contesting in five gender categories in all the gender seperated sports:
81-100% female 61-80% female 40-60% female 20-39% female 0-19% female brrrrrr

It's taken me 15 years, but I'm finally starting to understand the appeal of ESPN's X Games.
Another 15, and I'll figure out why half the world is seemingly obsessed with Lady GaGa. |

I'm sorry, you can't offer to chop the pot then play the competitive card when he says he'll only do so if he can have the trophy. Trotting out a line like, "I'm a competitor. And I was competing not just for me, but for every woman in the tournament." when you're the one who brought up the idea of splitting the pot is hypocrisy at it's finest.
