The court of arbitration for sport may have come down on one side of the debate over the athlete but its ruling contained enough holes and caveats to mean the dispute will continue

The crux of the Caster Semenya ruling, the line that cuts a path through the thicket of conflicting arguments and contrary opinions, is buried midway through the sixth paragraph of the summary of the verdict. It all turns on one little word – “but”.

Caster Semenya loses landmark legal case over testosterone levelsCaster Semenya had challenged the IAAF's proposal to restrict testosterone levels in female runners in certain events 'was asked to take a Gender test at 18 yrs old' Why don't they do this now with Trans? Ah - female. Um - right. This ruling could not be more wrong. Top athletes are DIFFERENT by definition. Muscle fibre, larger hearts, the list is endless... and to then restrict interfering with T. levels only for shorter races only compounds this stupid ruling. T. levels also help people win marathons !

Caster Semenya loses landmark legal case against IAAF over testosterone levelsCas rejects appeal of Olympic 800m champion who argued IAAF policy requiring athletes to medically reduce testosterone levels was discriminatory and a health risk I’m appalled at this. Who the fuck are they to tell this woman she is not feminine enough to compete as a woman? Fair. Enough of this nonsense. Let her compete, within the appropriate spectrum. As she should. As I honestly feel for her, the minority (and like less than 0.01%) shouldn't govern the majority.
