[quote=Anonymous]Swimming: not a good comparison. The only divisions are men and women. Running: If there is a division, there has to be a way to determine it and, if necessary, examine for it. For nearly all competitors, a standard cheek swab and drug-test-like exam would (I think) be enough to determine if the genetic makeup is XX and if testosterone levels are in the normal range. Then if these two tests indicate something unusual, other diagnostics (ultrasound, other) would be called in. These diagnostics would only be needed for a small minority of competitors. Of course, I would also support very transparent rules and the idea that serious competitors would be tested early in their careers so as not to be surprised.[/quote]
