Totally unfair!!

Well worth the read.

Biological female banned from female sports. Biological males allowed to compete in female Olympic sports... 🙄🙄🙄

What they are doing to this woman is absolutely disgusting.

She should be allowed, wtf

“I am very disappointed to be kept from defending my hard-earned title but this will not deter me from continuing my fight for the human rights of all of the female athletes concerned.”

Caster Semenya has the body of a man. The muscle mass of a man. Therefore should race men. Not hard to understand. Doesn’t matter how she was born.

Good.

Good

Question.. can the iaaf not have a category for intersex people to compete with each other?

Good. No one with testes in their tummy should be allowed in women competitions.

Good, I have the mentality of a ten year old, does that mean I can compete against them at the kiddy Olympics?

positiveimagep This is soooo Wrong!!!

Racism.. Pure and simple..

aAgain? Thought they cleared her last month.

SharronDavies Happy now?

African athletes and those of colour should boycott the damn thing!

FFS.

This decision doesn't just rob Semenya, it robs every competing athlete of the chance to beat her to become world champion, and it robs every spectator of the chance to watch the world's best women athletes compete.

Is sanity finally beginning to return to sports competitions?

I’m probably not allowed to ask this anymore, without offending someone, but it’s a genuine question I need answering to understand the case. Was this women biologically born a female or is she identifying as female/transitioning?

Thts a totally disappointing and unfair thing to do by the IAAF

Free Caster!
