You can see dozens of videos on YouTube that show gender identity is killing women's sports. If Semen-ya is a women (or other), I'm the Pope!

Semenya supporters argue racism and sexism. Yet no eyebrows have been raised that sprinting is dominated by black men and women, like Usain Bolt. In fact he's a hero around the world. Same with Flo-Jo in her time.

What is the point in having men and women run separately if Semenya is allowed to compete against women?

It makes no sense.

Every time I see Caster I start humming an old Aerosmith song.

Descrimination against LGBTQAI+ !

XY is man.

XX is woman.

That's not how the IAAF classifies gender. By its own rules, she's a female athlete. Requiring athletes to take drugs in order to compete seems wrong to me. If you're going to divide athletes into male and female categories, I think you have to live with the consequences.
