    World athletics is in crisis over the gender of Caster Semenya

    I thought this was hyperbole until I read that the NFL is cancelling all games this weekend due to the mystery over the gender of Caster Semenya.

    According to the group's secretary-general, four athletes "were asked to stop their career."

    And get into my car?

    Banning people with chromosomal issues from competing would ruin many of my favorite sports.

    But this is sports. Her weirdness is perfectly normal.

    Yeah, having 3 times the amount of testosterone compared to those you're competing against is perfectly ok as long as it wasn't shot into your ass with a turkey baster, right?

    It's not weirdness, it's an unfair advantage.

    @BruschisBrewsky: So we should disqualify Lance Armstrong for his super-high lung capacity, Michael Phelps for his double-jointed flipper-like legs right? Those are competitive advantages that they were born with. Once you start saying one advantage is deemed unacceptable, where do you stop?

    @djmohab2: Comparing Armstrong's oxygen capacity, inherited or artificially enhanced, and Phelps's double joint to a person's that's genetically male competing among women is like comparing oranges to a dinner table. Semenya clearly has an unfair advantage that's beyond reasonable reconcilable justification. We may not know exactly where to draw the line between genetic gift and unfair competitive advantage, but I think this is a case that's clearly 10 yards over even the most lenient demarcation.

    Internal Testes - the cosmetic wave of the future. So much more cozy - like when the soft-top is a bit too chilly and you'd rather drive the coupe - and offers more protection from those withering testicular traumas. And...think how much better your slacks will look!

    Internal Testes - get yours today!

    'Caster Semenya' name is an anagram of 'Yes A Secret Man'

    Any more proof needed?

    The free market has spoken. If a gay man can be homecoming queen cheaper and better than a woman, then he should have the job.

    What would American revolutionary and founding father George Mason say if he knew that a gay man had been elected homecoming queen at the University that bears his name?
