semenya is a HERMAPHODITE

This will be as contoversial as when Renee Richards "converted" from male to female and played only in women's tennis tournaments.
 
Wow I hope they let her keep running on the female teams.

Don't think so. Just heard on TV that she can keep the medals pre-test but no future competition as a female. Also, she needs medical assistance because there is a health risk with her condition.
 
Cyborgs are next...mark my words.

Actually there is currently a disabled runner who uses artificial legs which might be superior to human legs. On the other hand, there is a one legged female swimmer who actually swims with one leg.

Is Lady Gaga one as well?

I'll bet you they didn't make allowances for this when the sport governing bodies laid down the guidelines. Whoooiiiieeeee!!!

...and possibly a second gold medal awarded to the runner who came in second. Very classy move. I feel sorry for the hermaphrodite IF she didn't know beforehand. If she did know that she was a guy with malfunctioning testicles, yet competed as a woman, she's slime. If she truly had no idea, then its certainly got to be a difficult time in her life. So far as records go, I wonder if they will let her times stand.

She is from a township in SA, probably did not know.
 
... this is going to be a mess.
You can say that again, if this turns out to be true. The IAAF has not yet made any announcement other than that they have received the test results from the laboratory.

The ANC already has been screaming "racist" left, right and sideways and doubtless this will only fuel their paranoia.
