Listening to BBC, host was being told by black athlete that it is very racist to enforce new rules that would disproportionately affect black women because of their high level of testosterone. How is this also going to affect trans women, I think that they are a bigger part of why all of this stuff is coming up now? Are we going to start ranking athletes together by hormone levels instead of sex, maybe some men could compete against women?

Black women have higher levels of testosterone than other races of women? Says who? Or are they just saying that more black female athletes are juicing?

Women don't need testosterone. They need boobs. Ask any male.

That's not a woman in that picture.

Why not give a gold medal to every member of every "special group" and be done with it once and for all?

That's why I don't care about the Olympics anymore. If it's not clever doping schemes, like claiming to be asthmatic so track runners can get the expanded lung effect, it's gender bending. Peak natch performance was probably attained sometime before 1940.

Actually, black women do have higher average levels of testosterone than other women of other races. This is not in scientific dispute. It's also true for black men.

Testosterone also is a direct cause of typically masculine characteristics, such as greater strength. This is also not in scientific dispute.

But to claim that black women are on average stronger because of their higher levels of testosterone is "racist" because it is an axiom of modern liberalism that race is completely a social construct and in no way biological. The axiom is utterly false, but it may not be publicly questioned except at the risk of being expelled, fired, or other such extra-legal punishments for truth-telling.

Blacks are more prone to colon cancer, and are recommended to get a colonoscopy done at age 45 instead of 50. I wonder if that is considered as racist too.

If so, why would liberals be for affirmative action, and constantly tout "and he/she is black, too" when noting an achievement of a black person? E.g., black hockey player, NASA employee, etc.

Could explain why so many black women are bald and have receding hairlines.

Having women-only sport event is Sexist!

Comes to think of it, Title-9 should enforce Uni-Sex sport in all events!
