This is less about sport than politics. There's been a recent reversal of the ruling that intersex women need to surpress their elevated testosterone levels. This has led to a remarkable return to form for South African 800m runner Semenya who is now setting PBs this year around 1:55. The world record is 1:53 and 30 years old.
It seems IOC has given up trying to find the divide between men and women. Some women have a Y chromosome but a complete resistance to testosterone. Others have XX chromosomes but with testes and high testosterone. When you get to the difference between an enlarged clit and a micropenis it is not as straight forward between telling a cock from a pussy.
The race is tonight.
