Dude Looks Like A Lady

In what may be the most confusing story in sports, a “woman” named Caster Semenya, 18, from South Africa, smoked the 800 meter competition in Berlin at the world championships, but is now being subjected to a rigorous “gender test”.

There have been serious questions as to whether or not Caster is actually a woman, genetically. IAAF officials even sound baffled by the situation when commenting,

“If there’s a problem and it turns out that there’s been a fraud … that someone has changed sex, then obviously it would be much easier to strip results,” Davies added. “However, if it’s a natural thing and the athlete has always thought she’s a woman or been a woman, it’s not exactly cheating.”

As it seems, I can suggest a few other American athletes that should be tested.

Charles D.

You are decidedly racist and sexist. Is it a coincidence that the women you identify as androgynous are all black? Is this your way of "compensating" for your own "shortcomings" by objectifying women who don't fit your eurocentric aesthetic model of femininity; women who would no doubt challenge your tenuous, "small," self-image of masculinity? Just because you are not man enough for these beautiful, athletic black women, don't project your own insecurities vis a vis asinine racist comments. In other words, grow some balls, or at the very least, half brain.

Disrespectfully,

Your Intellectual Superior

And how exactly does this make me "racist"? None of this article references race. And I'm pretty sure Luke Walton is white.
