The girls are getting ticked off. If she does the same thing in Brussels as London I think they will make a move.

she was cleared to run everyone should just leave her alone and accept that she is just way better than them
I also feel bad for OJ Simpson when people harass him.
He was found not guilty by a court of law.
Case closed.
The protest will consist of all the entries in the Women's 800m putting Vienna sausages down the front of their buns.

Except for that other time, when OJ was found guilty for exactly the same crime with the same evidence...
Then again, comparing a murderer who got off on jury nullification to a girl who is just trying to do what she loves and is good at, despite the genetic fluke that may prevent her from doing it, is a bit offensive.
The runners should do what the pro cyclists do, and stage a sit down, refuse to race against Caster together when they are at the meet. It will also cause the big meets to not invite Caster anymore.
Caster is a man, and she is not innocent in all of this. Just because the IAAF doesnt want to look discriminatory, they are allowing this monstrosity to happen, and make a mockery of the institution.
It is B^&^*%^%, and the runners need to agree together to protest this. It is BAD for track & field.

That "girl" who is a guy who enjoys beating up women. Let him run with the other men and see how good he really is at what he loves.

Wrong! Because that isn't the comparison! The comparison is: Just because a ruling occurs doesn't mean the issue is settled. Just because Politics are at play doesn't mean those who are affected can't air their grievances and opinions in opposition.
I "feel" badly for Caster. Most people "feel" badly for Caster. but we dont solve the issue by looking the other way and saying "nothing to see here." The reality is that for a "girl" who hasn't really trained for a year to come out and make fools of the ladies who are tappering and peaking in their season right now is an indication of either supreme talent or an unfair advantage...and this kind of supreme talent is rare, Rare, RARE! so the debate, rightfully, goes on because it hasn't been handled well .
Hey, I would love to race against women and win a world championship also but I am not allowed.
C S would not be prevented from competing against men if running is what this person loves to do.
OJ was not found guilty in criminal court.
So it would seem that the female competitors could file a civil suit for earnings the same way OJ lost in civil court.
This better get settled by 2012.
It is the IAAF they should be protesting against. CS has done nothing wrong. She was raised as a girl, has ostensibly female genetalia. What do you expect her to do? However, the IAAF has made the wrong decision in allowing her to compete in my opinion. But no one really knows what is going on with CS hormonally or genetically. Until those facts are made clear, what's to protest? CS has been cleared to compete. Period.
Maybe one of them can swab some skin cells from CS during warm ups or take a sweat sample for testing. ;) A protest will not go well unless these girls know what they are protesting.
Boo f***ing hoo.
Semenya has acted like a male since god knows when. It's only since the PC brigade have got hold of her has she started going with the 'I'm a sensitive girl' nonsense.
Her headteacher didn't even know she was a girl, she wanted to be a male.
The other athletes should stop crying about it. They're just butt hurt that she is killing them out there.
I didn't see a protest - I did see Semenya leave it way too late, and lose the race.

I`m better we`ll see no period that has CS as it`s source.
I've worked in the OB ward during med school. Parents have to make these decisions at birth when the kid is born with ambiguous genitalia. There's nothing PC about it. When parent's don't see a penis: It's a girl. Or worse yet does that kid have a big clitoris or a tiny hypospadias penis? Decision time, my friend.

Even if you cut your pee-pee off you couldn't runner against women. You would fail all of the girl tests. Caster S. tests as being within the bounds of what a woman to be. There is gray zone the way I heard it described, which means that at 49.99% you would be considered a woman, and at 50.00% you are considered a male. It's more like, you tested at 10% and are a woman, most women test at 3%. Most males test at 97%, and some males as low as 90%.

So you agree with men being able to run in women's races?
I don't give a f*** about what gender people 'feel' they are or all that shit. Give me a break. It's all about fairness to the majority.
If they allow this, they should just cancel women's sports.

confusing
Earth to trollism: You are not in the majority. You are a well established troll on letsrun, meaning "WE" don't give a f888 about what you and other trolls think, if think is even possible for trolls.
