The Rules Aren't Fair to Everyone.

Run your race. (= play the cards dealt you; and hope they quit trying to game out everybody else's hand.)

So according to World Athletics and it's members I'm a male when it comes to 400m,800m, 1500m and 1600m! Then a female in 100m,200m, and long distance events. what a research. What kind of a fool would do that? Hai mathata man, bare sepela o di bone.

Update 2023:  

Another set of updates, for athletes with differences in sex development (DSD), could impact up to 13 current high-level runners, WA President Sebastian Coe said. They include Semenya, a two-time Olympic champion at 800 meters, who has been barred from that event since 2019.

Semenya and others had been able to compete without restrictions in events outside the range of 400 meters through one mile but now will have to undergo hormone-suppressing treatment for six months before competing to be eligible.Coe conceded there are no easy answers on this topic, which has turned into a societal lightning rod involving advocates who want people assigned female at birth to be able to compete on even footing and others who don’t want to discriminate against transgender and DSD athletes.

“All the decisions we’ve taken have their challenges,” Coe said. “If that’s the case, then we will do what we have done in the past, which is vigorously defend our position. And the overarching principle for me is we will always do what we think is in the best interest of our sport.”
