Olympic gold medalist Caster Semenya loses landmark gender appeal, casting doubt on future competition

Female track star Caster Semenya has lost her appeal in court against a gender ruling that restricts the amount of testosterone female athletes can have in their bodies in order to compete.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled that although the"DSD Regulations are discriminatory" a majority of the panel also found"such discrimination is a necessary, reasonable and proportionate means of achieving the IAAF's aim of preserving the integrity of female athletics." The new regulations mean that athletes of a"difference in sexual development," or"DSD," with a high amount of testosterone in their systems will not be able to compete in female races.

Funny how transgenders (male) are allowed to participate in female competitions without restrictions, but a naturally born woman can’t because of her testosterone level. If the liberals don’t destroy this world with their PC, nothing will ever.

Long overdue. Now he needs to return all the medals and prize money he stole from women.

I tried to come up with a word to include doubtful she's, he's and it's. Sheet.

Level playing field required.

If he has a uterus and fallopian tubes he can keep his metals if not he must return all the medals he has ever won competing as a women. We can not use liberal WTF logic here.

Leave women's sports to women. It's not fair for women to compete against men.

Now I know in this day and time of more technology, there is a test that will determine if Caster Semenya is a God made Female, when the test comes back positive, leave that woman along and get better athletes to beat her😠

She can thank the Trans-Invasion for this even being an issue.

Let's play What am I.

disgraceful on the part of the IAAF
