Ummm, most female track women look like that anyhow....be it white or black...
Ummm no, I disagree.
Many do not look very feminine, not many look positively masculine.
Ok, so you know much more about hermaphrodiates than me ,,, Possibly a dubious distinction.
I suggest that you take it up with the international Olympic committee if you think herme's should be allowed to complete.

I have no idea what you are talking about, you seem to be getting a bit over emotional about this.
If you feel like creating a defining moment for me, knock yourself out.
Obviously, not much to stop you from doing as you please.
edit: May have misunderstood that as a threat.
How would I like something like that to be a defining moment in my life ?
Thankfully, I will never know.
I don't have a bleeding heart, and a person like that is bound to take some knocks going through life.
Fair ? Maybe not. Reality ? Yes.

I dunno what track n field you watch, but I've seen more than my fair share of women that looked quite manly. Even the ones who were feminine looking still had several male looking qualities unless dressed like a woman.

Yeah, I work for a Children's hospital....and quite honestly, its a very, very sad thing for any child to deal with. It's quite possible she never even knew about this condition at all. As for the IOC, they're already a bunch of morons anyway. How do you get a 2 yr ban for taking over the counter meds or doctor prescribed meds for narcolepsy..

Not a threat, but how would you like for the rest of your life to be known as the hermaphrodite that got booted from women's racing? Or worse yet, to have that publicly disclosed. That's just crap man...period.

I don't watch much of that.
The majority are perhaps bony/stringy looking, overly muscular and generally unappealing for an average male.
I have seen nothing close to this though, if you got the pics, post em.

As I understand it, the official results won't be out for awhile, therefore its kinda hard to make an accurate determination on the decision.
If its against the rules for a hermie to compete, and she/he/its a hermie, then its case closed as far as I'm concerned.
Ignorance of laws/rules are no excuse for breaking them, as you know.

If it can't stand any fire, shouldn't have got by the flame.
You already asked me how I'd feel, I told ya.
I don't know how I'd feel because I'm not a hermie, I will not be drawn into hypothetical answers that can be neither proven or disproved.
It'll most likely immigrate to a western nation and write a book and do just fine, I have the feeling she/he would be in danger of being burned at the stake in Africa, where they tend not to glorify what they consider abnormalities.
Wait... I thought we were just discussing the topic. Not being sarcastic when we don't have anything to say to someone's argument.
Its not an argument - He disagrees with a decision that hasn't even been released yet, what am I going to do about it ?
People express their disagreements in many fashions, he could fire off an angry email, for instance.

Yes, because he was caps and exclamation points every where. I see it, now that you pointed it out.
You gotta understand, I'm still a bit jumpy here - Especially since most of the mods, as far as I have seen, are a bit left of Obama even.
I was on the defensive, I reread what was written and my reply to it, realized it was an error, and instead of deleting my comments like a sneaky child, I left them in place and explained I was in error.
And I still get called out for it ,,, And talk about sarcasm sheesh.
In any case, he did say that " I'm very much inclined to bash you for the comments" - So my diagnosis of over emotion may not have been far off the mark anyhow.
