After an executive board meeting, the IOC published a 10-page policy document that also restricts female athletes such as two-time Olympic champion runner Caster Semenya with medical conditions known as differences in sex development, or DSD.

So which genetics are allowed to compete? How similar must your genes be to Aryan to be allowed entry?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say XX chromosomes are required. So if you consider chromosomes part of genetics, that would be it.

So what you're saying is someone with naturally high testosterone who presents with and naturally developed an otherwise male body can compete with women if they genetically have XX chromosomes? That, somehow, seems even more controversial to me.

Anti-trans folks really don't care who suffers or what their policy actually accomplishes as long as they have a scapegoat.

Trying to put logic to it will drive you mad.

What's funny about this is I actually know someone born biologically female who naturally produced more testosterone than estrogen. Heck, PCOS is a hormonal disorder that affects an estimated 10-13% of women.

It's not like chromosomes matter at all, and these kinds of competitions will always bias favorably towards the people who were more fortunate with the body they were given at birth. Pretending like one person's circumstances just don't count because you don't like them, especially (but not exclusively) for the athlete with DSD, invalidates the competition entirely.

“This was a priority for me way before President Trump came into his second term," Coventry said. "There’s not been any pressure (on) us to deliver anything from anybody outside of the Olympic Movement.”

Guess she must have craved the power to decide who is a woman and who is not. Some dollar store pseudo science magic, and you get to sort out anyone you do not like, all in the name of protecting the ones you attack.

As if there needed to be more reason to boycot this kind of event.

XX chromosomes are the base requirement. Olympics also tests for elevated testoserone.

"Testosterone is measured for female athletes in the Olympics. The regulations set a limit of 5 nmol/L testosterone for athletes competing in certain events, specifically for distances between 400 meters and 1 mile. Athletes with conditions that cause high testosterone levels may need to suppress their testosterone levels to compete in these events. Additionally, the World Athletics Council has recently reduced the limit to 2.5 nmol/L for athletes with differences in sexual development"

So both conditions, plus others I'd imagine, have to be met.
