They are superhuman, so why do hormone levels come into play? Great comment. Steph,

You are so right about that. They are superhuman, so why do hormone levels come into play?

Great comment.

There's no space in between, in sports (and most other arenas) for a transgendered or androgynous person. And when it's gotten to the point where we are becoming superhuman, should it really even matter when someone has a little more testosterone or not? I understand that rules are rules, but times are changing, and our bodies are changing. They should keep up. Even before we tackle the idea of gender identity, there is nothing fully male or female about her physical body. High levels of testosterone don't make a person any less of a woman. I hope she gets through this and becomes a better person for it. She earned it, and she deserves every bit of praise for her win.

Which is a shame because the tests should have been a rumor at worst until long after they've taken place and its decided one way or the other. New information is coming out every day.
