I have to agree. But I hope that she is confirmed as a female because her performance was stunning. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ms Semenya is not the first female athlete to be subjected to this, although I suspect that she is the first black African athlete to have her gender questioned. The fact is that over the last 90 years or so, men have tried to pose as women to give them an unfair advantage over their female competitors. The IAAF is just trying to give everybody a fair shake.

Ms Semenya is paying the price for the fraud committed by other athletes in the past, and that is most unfortunate. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Ms Semenya&amp;#39;s gender is confirmed as female, South Africa will enter the ranks of the great running nations such as Kenya, Morocco, USA, Jamaica and a few others. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a Canadian, it is my hope that our African-descended athletes will soundly defeat the native African athletes from South Africa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Regards,   Jay</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17729840/1607646010433935461/comments/default/1544162337684695543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17729840/1607646010433935461/comments/default/1544162337684695543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.zulumathabo.com/2009/08/heroines-welcome-for-semenya.html?showComment=1251347815073#c1544162337684695543' title=''/><author><name>Jay Godse</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03791278729450406908</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.zulumathabo.com/2009/08/heroines-welcome-for-semenya.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17729840.post-1607646010433935461' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17729840/posts/default/1607646010433935461' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-767143485'/></entry></feed>
