Lauren McLaughlin’s brilliant blog entry: bit.ly Our community lives at www.nerdfighters.com Correction In Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, the person is XY chromosomally but has a female external appearance. For more info: bit.ly In which John discusses track star Caster Semenya, sports, sexual identification, internal testes, the ambiguity inherent to life, and the arbitrary rules of a sport that cannot accommodate such ambiguity.

Hey John – It may be Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome… but the reports did differ. i read the claim that she has no female sex organs. Personally, I think we should not have the rule so complex for any games….

I want to read your book, please send it now.
Sometimes the genes expressed are defective in some way. This can lead to a different than expected phenotype, like a person with an XY chromosomes that are phenotypically women. Also, translocation of the sex determining region on the Y chromosome to an X chromosome can give a person an XX genotype with a male phenotype.
You’re only partially correct, there is a much more complicated process going on for sex determination. First you described the genotypic sex determination although incomplete. On the short arm of the Y chromosome there is a “sex determining region”. This region is needed for there to be a male. Besides the genotype of a person there is a phenotype to consider, that being the manifestation of the genes a person has.

@LiberdadeHedonista I hate to break it to you but sexual and gender dyadism is a myth. There is a whole spectrum of sex and gender, just look at God’s angels. They’re neither male nor female, so God thought, “Why not humans, besides the whole Male or Female thing is getting a little redundent. Then God created the Third Sex.”
Just a theory on God’s creation of intersex and transfolk
If Caster Semenya is a woman, then this bespectacled shit is man.
XXXY, XXXXY and XXYY are also males, yes.
Some may have medical conditions that allow them to participate in female competitions, but not necessarily.
If they try to deceive sport judges with ecographies, pretending they are females, they are cheating.
However, men whose Y chromosomes do not work are female in practice, so they should be treated as women, by international laws (no compulsory military service, legal marriage with men, even in countries where it is usually not allowed, etc).
Then what about those with a perfect XXXY
Humans are either male or female. If you have at least one Y chromosome, then you are male (XY, XXY or XYY). Otherwise, you are female (X, XX, XXX or XXXX).
Some males, with certain conditions, can legally participate in female sports competitions, no problem. But many others use the pretext that they have ovaries, uterus and vagina to participate, which is not related to the requirements. Aka cheating.
“Sour grapes” are like life.
sports is like life
What should happen to a sick and twisted person who molests a three year old child? The answers on my channel to this will shock you!
The video is called “Molester molests 3 year old infant”
Every day I get some of the most shocking comments. What do you think should happen to the guy who did this to this 3 year old infant?
WARNING: some of the comments are extremely graphic in nature and may not be suitable for everyone. This is a VERY heated and passionate topic.
I think I’m going to leave a twelve-word comment right now
I think I’m going to leave an eleven-word comment now

I would like a copy of the book Paper Towns.
Oh, thanks John, by the way, I finished an Abundance of Katherines today, IT WAS PRETTY AWESOME. Although I must say I enjoyed Paper Towns just a bit better.
