        Stupidest rule ever. And what will men with low testosterone levels do, compete as girls?

        What about players that are born into wealth and privilege or from supporting countries that enable them to train full-time? That is an advantage. Or swimmers who were born near water, or have a larger lung capacity.

        Of course there is 'natural' ... and errr? natural ... diet, (cough) Training Program & sleep. If either of those had been East European there would have been a massive outcry .... but as they're 'British' .... it's no questions asked.pic.twitter.com/IL5M4nPxVl

        I am not a doctor, nor am I an athlete, but I think there is something wrong with telling women who naturally produce high levels of a hormone, they must medicate themselves or not compete. Sports are full of genetic advantages.

        This is ridiculous. Every body is unique. Some people have natural advantages and are better at sports than others. Will men with low testosterone be allowed or forced to compete with women? How are they going to avoid a discrimination lawsuit by forcing only women to conform?

        That’s is the most ridiculous rule, if a woman didn’t do anything to alter her levels, she should be able to compete with her gender as is. it just means she is the best, naturally. Next you’ll be saying if she has too much glucagon stores in her liver....total absurdity.

        What about those genetically very tall - ban them from basketball? Check out the xyy genotype! Or The "good" freak Usain Bolt - a hero. The "bad" freak Caster Semenya a villain. What is the difference? Only in Semenya's case we can see the difference in Bolt's we are not sure
