The reason why anti-trans people like #jkrowling
have to claim that #imanekhelif #CasterSemenya, and others are biologically male, despite being born female, is because if they concede that they are women, then their arguments against #Transwomen in sports get weaker.

#Sexeligibility #rules for #female #athletes are #complex and legally #difficult.

Athletes like #ImaneKhelif of #Algeria and #LinYuTing of #Taiwan are left #vulnerable in the fallout. The modern era of #eligibility #rules are widely known to have started in 2009, after #SouthAfrican #800meter #runner #CasterSemenya surged to #stardom on the track as an 18-year-old #goldmedalist at the #worldchampionships.

I'm still waiting for the apology World Athletics owes to Caster Semenya... #olympics #worldathletics #castersemenya #discrimination

#CasterSemenya will be at the #Paris 2024 #Olympics – but not as a #competitor

#Robbed of her #right to #compete in the #sport she loves, the #Middledistance #runner has been working as an #assistantcoach at the #TuksAthleticsAcademy at the #UniversityofPretoria, in #SouthAfrica, under the #tutelage of her former #coach, #SamuelSepeng.

In „Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain“ machen sich auf Prime Video drei Freunde auf eine skurril-abenteuerliche Reise. Auf Filmfriend dreht sich heute alles um das große Thema der Liebe. Und die Arte-Doku „Sportlerinnen: Zu stark, um Frau zu sein“ stellt Fragen zum „weiblichen“ Körper im Sport.

"I will embrace my differences," says Caster Semenya.

May this outstanding human being live long and prosper.

I think the most interesting line in this piece with Caster #Semenya is when World #Athletics said they've "only ever been interested in protecting the female category".

Ergo, if you're DSD or intersex, you're automatically a man.

Which is what the GC/anti-trans ecosystem they've chosen to align with believe too. As well as including most of their 'experts' they chosen to base their rulings around, off their 'scientific' papers.

Hyperandronism is a condition that Semenya has. #Racism, #misogynoir and #sexism all play a part in this nonsense the Olympic body is putting this athlete through.

#CasterSemenya does not call herself #intersex: ‘I’m a different kind of #woman’

The two-time #Olympic #champion’s #memoir is out this month. On #IntersexAwarenessDay, we should consider why she #disassociates from a #word that #others her.

"I know I look like a man. I know I sound like a man and maybe even walk like a man and dress like one, too. But I’m not a man; I’m a woman. Playing sports and having muscles and a deep voice make me less feminine, yes. I’m a different kind of woman, I know, but I’m still a woman."
