Is Allyson Felix going to go on another anti-misogny tirade like she did to Nike? I would like to see that, but then who will she target since there is no "man" here?
The 200m wr is definitely going down to the girl who got a silver at the Olympics. Prolly break 21 but somehow the Jamaican women will be right there lol
LRC Note. We changed the title of the thread. It was initially entitled, "Just catching up. A man wins womens 200m in Ostrava . (Video)" As a courtesy, please do not call an interest woman a man. You can make the argument that in your mind they are more biologically male than female."
The changing of the thread title to "suspected intersex" shows that whoever changed the title either doesn't know much about track or is purposely being less than honest.
There is nothing "suspected", It's a known fact. The runner has already been confirmed as intersex which is why they were banned from running the 400 which used to be their main event.
The mods have shown their ignorance of these issues previously. We can await Runragged to come here and explain the facts about DSD athletes one more time.

"the mods" don't tend to make obvious spelling errors like "...please do not call an interest woman a man."
The perplexity and even the derision that these competitors evoke by competing in women's events shows the manifest failure on the part of those who run the sports to deal with this issue.
Call me ignorant, but why would someone be allowed in other events when they're not 'women' enough for the 400m?
This is well known among people who follow the sport, but DSD athletes are not allowed at 400m-1500m (I think mile as well, not sure about 2000m) but are able to compete in the shorter and longer championship distances due to “lack of evidence” on their inherent advantage. It was really just a way to stop DSD athletes from sweeping the podium in the 800m since that’s where they were dominating but to maintain some semblance of compromise. If it had been in the 200m or 5000m, then they would have found the necessary evidence for those distances.

These people are being treated as if they are sub human and many of you folks are showing your true colors. You folks know who you are and you are complete failures as people to be treating these people this way.

There are some who think it a farce that these athletes can compete in women's events. How do you show respect for a farce?

The derision of intersex and trans athletes is evidence that something needs to be done to prevent them competing in the women's events?

Think back to Sesame Street. "One of these kids is not like the others, one of these kids doesn't belong."
