The Asian Games ended a week ago, but it's sure not over. Controversy surrounds practically any major sporting event, and Doha contributes by having a he-she medal winner! Woot! He-she's news definitely trounced the couple of dead athletes at the Games.
does indeed look like a man, doesn't 'she'?What's the deal then? Santhi Soundarajan won a silver medal in the women's 800m race, but after the Games ended Indian Olympics Association chief announced that 'she' was actually a 'he'. After tests were conducted, he-she was stripped of the silver medal. So the heroine becomes a laughing stock. Double embarrassment, because as a 'he', Santhi still didn't manage to clinch the gold medal. Hmm.
Anyway gender tests, unlike drug tests, are not compulsory for competitors, and the last time a competitor's gender was in question was like 20 years ago. So there.
