I'm so sick of this that any kind of boundary is somehow violating human rights. There is no right to play elite sports and also there is still an open division.
In that article as well one of them claims it violates " dignity, privacy, and bodily autonomy ", I would argue then that having to pee in front of someone does the same. The sex test sounds way less invasive, a once in a lifetime cheek swab.
I saw a comment on reddit saying that they're not sex testing the men, like what on earth would you be testing for, if they were aliens?
They can't even make up their minds like first they say testing needs to be targeted and individualised and then later on that speculation about sex is more detrimental to women of colour due to their appearance. Like which is it, are they advocating testing everyone or singling people out?
Its from the Guardian Australia and someone claims " “The IOC’s new guidelines will be unlawful in Australia. Mandatory sex testing and blanket bans directly conflict with the Sex Discrimination Act, our sporting National Integrity Framework, and our safeguarding obligations to children. "
sounds like their sex discrimination act needs rewriting
