...I'm kind of surprised that the IAAF hasn't formalized a way to handle this by now.

If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

Stella Walsh, anyone?

Caster Semenya has male sex organs and no womb or ovaries - 11/09/2009 12:24:30 PM 1612 Views
I think revoking the championship and a ban at this point would be plain wrong - 11/09/2009 02:01:15 PM 875 Views
Well said. - 11/09/2009 02:10:31 PM 858 Views
agreed. *NM* - 11/09/2009 02:36:06 PM 436 Views
I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 03:20:05 PM 422 Views
I agree it's not her fault, but she shouldn't keep her championship. - 11/09/2009 03:50:06 PM 838 Views
Possibly a quibble, but just trying to clarify... - 11/09/2009 05:15:52 PM 939 Views
It makes sense - 13/09/2009 05:04:23 PM 886 Views
I disagree - 11/09/2009 04:09:50 PM 1212 Views
As bad as if feel for the athlete, I agree. *NM* - 11/09/2009 04:46:57 PM 404 Views
To the extent that LadyLorraine means "at this point", I do agree with her... - 11/09/2009 05:03:34 PM 927 Views
Sounds like she/he is more dude than chick..... - 11/09/2009 02:42:33 PM 930 Views
not really. it only takes ONE mistake to cause her problems. - 12/09/2009 03:19:06 AM 865 Views
It's not that simple with DNA either. - 12/09/2009 10:38:28 AM 958 Views
no it's not as simple as "XX" and "XY" - 12/09/2009 03:02:03 PM 890 Views
I think it is a sad story - 11/09/2009 04:34:29 PM 934 Views
I agree. - 11/09/2009 09:20:35 PM 980 Views
I like I said, tragic - 11/09/2009 09:34:57 PM 825 Views
I can't believe this whole thing is public - 11/09/2009 07:03:59 PM 962 Views
That's a good idea! - 11/09/2009 07:17:20 PM 871 Views
Yeah, seems fair. Medal, no record. - 11/09/2009 07:57:38 PM 812 Views
How could she not know something was different? Not developing a period would be a major sign. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:21:54 PM 401 Views
Not necessarily, depending on the rigors of her athletic training. *NM* - 11/09/2009 09:26:32 PM 375 Views
When do most girls get their first period? Around 12 or 13? - 12/09/2009 07:34:23 AM 792 Views
Yes, but 14 or 15 isn't out of the ordinary *NM* - 12/09/2009 11:23:09 AM 398 Views
I didn't start until I was 17 *NM* - 12/09/2009 03:02:28 PM 375 Views
That is a bit unusual. *shrugs* *NM* - 13/09/2009 01:17:18 AM 407 Views
starting THAT late is, yes - 13/09/2009 04:24:44 AM 1049 Views
There are plenty of runners who do hard training that keeps them from getting a regular period - 11/09/2009 09:29:24 PM 900 Views
I'd say so too. Periods have a lot to do with % body fat. - 12/09/2009 12:28:46 AM 979 Views
Not at the age when a girl first develops her period. - 12/09/2009 07:36:24 AM 869 Views
You have an odd understanding of what's normal... - 12/09/2009 02:51:37 PM 889 Views
And you are still missing the point. - 13/09/2009 01:18:54 AM 820 Views
And you're missing the point - 13/09/2009 01:39:46 AM 849 Views
What Sareitha said. - 13/09/2009 03:50:05 AM 1004 Views
people develop 30lb tumors and never go to get them checked out - 11/09/2009 09:36:18 PM 913 Views
Well, now that you put it that way I guess I could see that. *NM* - 12/09/2009 07:37:18 AM 381 Views
Not that rare in athletes. - 12/09/2009 01:06:27 AM 819 Views
like i said in my first post - 12/09/2009 03:25:04 AM 895 Views
I like that idea. That is the most sensible solution. *NM* - 12/09/2009 01:07:42 AM 363 Views
This whole thing has been handled disgracefully - 12/09/2009 12:37:35 PM 994 Views
