I don't think that biological males should be allowed to compete against women. But it seems like the guidelines aren't consistent at all, so you can run at a shorter distance but not a longer one if you have higher testosterone, and you can have testosterone 4 times higher than an average woman. But if a woman were to take testosterone to boost her performance would this actually be allowed?
Absolutely not which is why it’s bleeping nuts. He’s a man period

This is an interesting (and long) thread on X/Twitter by Cathy Devine (lecturer on Sports Science/Policy) analysing the Woman's Hour interview with Semenya -

Did anyone see that odd sorry about a month ago about the Indian athlete Nandini Agasara being accused of being transgender and the competitor took back the accusation? I’m not sure what the truth of it is but I can fully see why the accusation was made.

What exactly is cramping?!?

This is an absolute joke, of course if a 'trans woman' experiences these things it has to be worse than what a woman experiences, even though we literally are shedding the lining of one of our internal organs. All those other lovely symptoms like the period 💩 is a side effect of the hormones.

Edited to add... premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD)

A colleagues PMDD was so bad that she had to be kept away from her husband 3 days a month as she would attack him

Yes, I did. Having looked at Agasara’s instagram, it’s my view that Swapna Barman (the other competitor) may have a point:
However, everything I saw reported in the Indian press (including YouTube channels), took a very dim view of the accusation and I wonder whether Barman has been forced to withdraw her comments.

'People want to say I don't experience PMS symptoms'

Yes, me. I am people. You don't have a menstrual cycle you attention seeking melon, so you cannot, psychically, biologically, scientifically, any-other-ally, have pms anything.
