I agree wholeheartedly with this article. When did it become acceptable to broadcast someone’s medical information/records without their consent? Everytime I go to the doctor (even for my child) they give me a copy of the HIPPA privacy rights – did these not extend to Ms. Semenya? I can’t imagine the pain she’s in right now – the confusion, the embarassment – because she didn’t start out a boy and make a decision to change – she has been raised her whole life as a girl and at this time of transition into womanhood she has a bombshell dropped on her. I wish her the best. Perhaps those that felt fit to broadcast her situation to the world will also feel fit to pay for the massive amounts of therapy she will need.

My heart goes out to her and her family. She is a strong woman and will overcome these trying times she will be in my prayers.

@ shindogg – you have the right to your opinion, but before you express it, make sure it’s an EDUCATED one. She is not a ‘FAG’ as you put it, she has a medical condition that she has NO CONTROL OVER. Furthermore, when ex

My heart goes out to this girl and she is in my prayers. This is a total invasion of privacy……

THE ONLY MALES TO MAKE COMMENTS SAYING THIS PERSON SHOULD “MURK” THEMSELVES, REFERRING TO HIM/HER COMMITTING SUICIDE!! YOU TWO ARE IGNORANT N****RS THAT SHOULD BE WHEELED BACK TO SUDAN AND MADE A SPECTACLE OF!! IT DISGRACES ME AS A BLACK MAN HOW, OTHERS IN MY CULTURE MAINLY THESE HOMOTHUGS, PERPERTRATING ONE THING AND GETTING RAMMED IN ASS IN A BUSH BUT ANOTHER THING!! WE NEED TO LEARN TO EMBRACE ALL LIKE US B4 WE CAN DO THIS FOR OTHERS. GOD MADE THIS PERSON AND GOD ALSO MADE YOU, AND HE WILL PUNISH YOU FOR CURSING HIS CREATIONS….

U dont know anything about my God… he calls that an “Abomination” and if u thoroughly read the “WORD” u will understand anything that is
“Unrighteous” or “Abominal” to God u being a servant gives u the authority to denounce it. I am humbly a servant of the “Word” and anything that is “contrary” to it I am gonna call it out and if this he/she thinks that taking his/her life is greater then repenting of the transgression is self servant and needs to be terminated… The only “DIVINE” thing we have in this world is the “Word” so u need to change your name and get a better understanding before u address a higher intellect…sucka

wow we have become a very sick world, and have the nerve to try and cover evilness with God and religion? This article is well done. Sad how some people judge so harshly but don’t want to be judged themselves. Why is A’hole a character so many of us are ok with playing? If you know nothing else know that Karma is a beast and you do it to yourself.

I think people really have a bad interpetation between “judgement” and “admonishment” and those who are not in the category to be admonished then righteousness presides over wickedness therefore judgement can be placed as long as it is scriptual. Paul talks about alot of this if take the time to read the bible. If I am saying something wrong then I just like anyone else can be “admonished” according to the doctrine, if u aint got scripture then u need to join a conversation in which u can prove what u talkin about.

I think this is the best article BP has put out yet. There is no abomination here, if a person was born that way then God made them so…. unfortunately US African and White American are so self consciencious we would do anything to hide OUR own shame in ourselves. And it’s funny how Da J Rock can talk about scripture when suicide is considered a sin as well as all the other many sins in the Bible, but he picks that to justify his ignorance. That poor girl and her family will never be the same. I pray she comes back from this a stronger person than ever before. Braver than ever and let’s nothing stand in the way of her accomplishments.

@ mslioness… common sense away from the bible has to factor in somewhere in the conscience minds of humans…There is no such thing as a “He-She” u are either a man or a woman period. If that is what God would have intended then there would be no need for sex and we would be able reproduce without the opposite gender. So before u make an implication towards “ignorance” combine your human nature knowledge with your divine nature facts.

You are right the DEVIL made her and all the hermaphradites in the world, or better yether mom and dad conjured her up for the reason to race against women and make them look subpar. My goodness have we not learned anything from biology, we can not control the gender/sex of the embryo it just happens to form the way it’s suppose to. There are fish and insects made the same way, we don’t go carrying on about them and wishing them to do. But like most who tweek the bible to have it say what they wish, everyone is entitled to their opinion, I just pray you don’t believe in Karma either enough said.

so tell me how I “tweeked” the bible?

1st Corithians Chapter 15 Verse 38… ” But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body” once again if u aint got no scripture to back up what u say dont get in these conversations with me

Wow.
Sometimes I think religion (or better yet the mis-use of religion) is the most dangerous thing on earth. People want her to kill herself for the way she was born? SMH.
Now as far the article I agree wholeheartedly but I do get a little annoyed when people want to put the blame on the media. To me that is just a cop out, the medial gives us what we ask for. If nobody watched Kanye on Leno, or Taylor on the View, if nobody searched Yahoo, Google or Bing for them, if no one clicked it on YouTube then guess what the media would have to find something else to talk about cause they want you to watch. WE have to take some of the blame for the constant invasions of privacy that are so prevalent today. But WE don’t want to do that cause what does that make us? So instead we blame it on this mysterious demon called the “Media”. Sorry to burst bubbles but the “Media” is just societies mirror. And last I checked the only way to change the reflection in a mirror is the change the actual image.

Being in the spot light comes with a price. This has nothing to do with god nor race. Caster is not the only one to be questioned about gender when it comes to competeting in olympic events. Is their any chance the family had knowledge of caster’s gender? You bet. Did caster believe a fast one could be pulled? Perhaps the rules should have been reviewed. Oh and one more thing……..isnt suicide a private matter? Or is this just another attempt at attention?

thank u for ur post @ Bonasteel… I dont want this he/she person to kill “itself” I want this person to repent, admit the transgression, and take some “PERSONAL” responsibility if not, oh well. I have no sympathy for wrong doing “period”

I feel so bad for this young lady.

It’s so funny how people can post with the attitude of “Oh Well…that’s just the way it is” Until IT Happens To You/Your Child.
Wake up…it’s the way we make it.

Athletes undergo physical exams before competing…so the true story here is about JEALOUSY. She was not questioned/tested until after she won the race and the reason of questioning was “She looked like a man and pounded her chest after winning the race.” They then went on to state that if she has more/extra testosterone, it wouldn’t be fair to the other competitors.

Give me a Break!!!
There are a lot of women…girly women…if you tested them @ this very moment, would have elevated Testosterone levels. It’s called Hormonal imbalance.

Look @ Michael Phelps, his body has unusual proportions (torso, armspan, etc.) which was proven to give him an advantage. I never seen anyone question him/his medals…even after he was pictured smoking from the bong!!!

This young lady’s full cooperation mirrors the content of her character.

How can people be so cruel.
If I was her mom…I would have snapped!!!

LOTS OF BAD SCRIPTURE BEING THROW AROUND ABOUT THIS YOUNG LADY. THE BOOK OF GENESIS SPEAKS OF GOD MAKING MAN, AN IT STATES HE MADE MAN MALE/FEMALE. NOT ONE OR THE OTHER. SHE WAS BORN THIS WAY AND YOU STATE THIS IS AN ABOMINATION TO GOD? SO SHE FEEL ITS OK TO KILL HER FOR THE WAY SHE WAS BORN? OR AS YOU STATE REPENT FOR THE WAY SHE WAS BORN? DA_J_ROK? IF THIS IS WHAT YOU LEARNED FROM THE BIBLE I UNDERSTAND WHY SO MANY PEOPLE DONT ATTEND CHURCH. BROTHER JESUS CAME IN LOVE AN IF WE CAN’T LOVE THIS LADY, HOW CAN WE TRULY SAY WE ARE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST?

I feel so sorry for the young lady. Americans are so judgemental, sexist, bias, and pure racist and pure hate (Wilson’s not ashame of his prejudice) at least he stood up to it:(..) The young lady shouldn’t have been subjected to all the publicity. Shame on the media. What if she would have been white???? What about Susan the American Idol, she’s not that womanily either, can the media check her out???? All BS aside, why does the media hurt, judge, kill people, who do what they love most?? You know what comes arounds goes around, and you too, will be judged by a greater power than people. And money is your root to your evil. Shame, Shame shame…………….

Looking at some of the comment posted on this site shows the true ignorance of people, may you burn….

I don’t see why everything have to racist, sexist etc. Yes I’m sorry the young lady. But once you put yourself on the world stage competing against other countries, they have the right to raise certain questions. They did NOT request a sex test after she won the race it was question from she signed up for world championships. If you put yourself on the world stage especially when you are doing well everyone is going to take interest in you worldwide whether negative or positive. I dont blame the media or the council the only one to blame is her country for exposing her this way when they knew before this would or may be an issue. Its the way of the world, you have to look after your own, no one else will.
And for all those that are saying its just hormonal imbalance. Any female athlete thats tested and have even twice much more 3 times the amount of testosterone level as a man will be questioned and that undoubtedly would pose as a disadvantage for the other competitors. Its a first occurrence so theres not a ‘by the book’ method. But it has to be dealt with. Too bad her country have let it being dealt with world wide.

Bonasteel you hit the nail on the head. Good Post.
How does suicide motives become a private matter????!

the iaaf drop the ball,they screw up,they miss up that girl life,all her life work down the drain because of a birth deffect,what shuld have been private, they leak to the press long before the testing was done,just so some damn news paper could get a story,she has all the parts of a woman,she is a woman,next thing you hear they want to go up your ass to see if you got hemorides or if you wipe your ass this morning,we need to be supporting her not destroying her,she got me in her corner,dose she have you ?

@ Enoch121
Thank U @ DahCharmer

The scripture that I posted had to do with the fact that people are saying that he/she is “intersexed” The scripture clearly points out that God doesn’t create “intersexed” Therefore If this so called “intersexed” individual would rather take their life, than to stand up and fight and defend his/her gender then who cares. Its obvious, take away the “sensitive” element and use logic…

And do some research on South Africa, im sure u’ll discover something u never knew before

@Da_J_Rok
@Shindogg

You two have got to be kidding me. You two seem like the last people who should be quoting ANYTHING. I don’t believe in “God” per se but whatever force made us created some very beautiful human beings. For some people, the lines got a bit crossed. However, they should not be cast out as “sinners” or defects because they don’t fit your ideal of what a man or woman should be. BTW, when was the last time either of you did squat for your country?

Da_J_Rok, repent for putting that photo of money on your page. We can all see what you are about. You’re not thug-life; you’re hug life.

U right im not “THUG” life, why would I rob from it, and I am “HUG” life because I embrace it…

Repent for a photo…hmmmm? right I guess I should also repent for taking photos of myself & my son as well to huh…

U morons cant even be articulate when u try to “offend” somebody. And why u on my page anyway, I get it, u a fan right? No autographs kocksucka

My God Da_j_rok, you really are showing your ignorance all over the place. The Bible is an historical record of a tribe of who knows what origin and whether they even existed. It is not a scientific instrument.

Caster was born with a medical condition known and hermaphrodism and that should have been disclosed before she got into this thing. “She” can present herself as either sex if she chooses, or so I would guess, but that presents various and obvious social problems. Like, which restroom to use?

So, her life is going to be extraordinarily complicated from the get go.

And sure, people can take sympathy with her and allow her participation into whatever realms they choose. But, she must disclose all pertinent information from the start.

Exactly ENOCH thank you for putting it out there that GOD IS LOVE…. and no where in any cripture be it the Quran, the Hebreq Bible or the King James Version does it talk about one committing suicide for they way they were born, Da_J_Rock is clueless and has been hoodwinked by some false prophet, poor thing.

mslioness@ ummm no, I will admit to the way I came off may have been misleading and I apologize for that, but that wasn’t the point I was tryin to make.

@ XL_611… u proved your whole point in ur statement and I quote, “or so I guess” don’t guess, have facts to dispute your “theories” otherwise keep it movin and stay off my page homie ladies only

And that one click note garbage was a accident, I dont even know why dat trash on here @ XL_611

first of all stop quoting scriptures if you don’t know what you talking about…God loves us all and if she was born with a birth defect, that doesn’t mean she’s an abomination, that has absolutely nothing to do with her. An if thats the case.. that means a person with cerebral palsy, leprosy, skin disease and other types of an ailments would be an abomination? right no wrong if she was born like that so what its a birth defect. God doesnt look at the outer appearance he looks at the heart, and if she have a relationship with him… and to make a comment like she should kill herself hmmm…sounds like hatred and that means your not being used of God(how embarrassing) to make a statement like that YALL NEED TO EXAMINE YOURSELF BEFORE YOU PASS JUDGEMENT ON SOMEONE ELSE.

Da_J_Rok, you say I proved my whole point by saying I guess and then you say
don’t guess?

I guess I proved yet another point that this clown is a complete moron, capable only of spouting endless nonsense, with his own comments…..Right?

LOL

What really bothers me about this whole situation is that if she had NOT WON, more than likely no one would have questioned her sexuality.

So are we going to gender-test EVERYONE across the board now?, I mean, that would be fair, right?……Under what criteria do we determine if someone needs to be gender-tested? When and how do you determine which athlete is allowed to compete? Do we go by how feminine a man is and how masculine a woman looks? If an athlete wins over and over again, is that when we test? Can you just imagine if ALL athletes were gender-tested, how many would be found to have genetic defects?….believe me, there would be quite a few…….and then what?

Hell, why not just make it all coed contests and that way, everyone can keep their personal business PRIVATE……which it should have been for Ms. Semenya in the first place.

Definitely, her rights have been violated and I hope that she will look into some type of legal recourse to help her through this shame and embarrasment…..but honestly, her life as she knew it, is unfortunately over…..smh.

I know u not stupid XL_611 so I aint gone call u that, so lets just say u cant interpret. If u “THOROUGHLY” have a concept of what im saying then think about what u said first then, read what I said. LOL…stupid

And Youngflashy90… Read all my post before u come in on the “Buttend” of a conversation and I see u lookin too, curiousty killed the cat…think about it!

I have watched this and semi debated her status with a good friend who ran track in high school and college. She is now a track coach. The speculation began due to her late entry into the sport and the major improvements in time from one meet to the next. Track and field is serious competition. When someone improves their time so quick from meet to meet, the speculation about cheating begins. This young lady was obviously born different from most of us. The blame lies squarely on the people around her who let her enter international competition knowing full well that people would question her abilities, if not for gender, then for doping. They have been around longer and have more experience dealing with the politics of track and field. The South African coaches and track federation did her a MAJOR disservice. All she knew is she could run fast.

I fully agree with the writer of this article. The actions displayed towards this young up and coming athlete are totally unconscionable and unacceptable. This is a case of isolation on the part of the Athletics board. It is a violation of privacy on every level. The fact that the tests were being run should have been kept secret. Furthermore, investigation needs to be done to ascertain why they deemed it neccessary to run test on Semanyer. Is it merely a thing of random selection or is there an underlying reason that needs to be digged in? Personally, I believe that her race plays a major factor…the fact that she exhibited such athletic prowess and undeniably would have won every race in this tournament must have been a catalyst to run these tests.Nonetheless, what has been done has been done. The damage has been done and the poor girl has had to endure a traumatic and shattering experience during the past few months. The board should reprimand the individuals responsible for leaking this information to the public. There should also be restitution by those who deemed it appropriate to proceed with these tests. The whole incident is just troubling. It is difficult to understand why this girl had to go through this ordeal. I truly hope that she can rise from this situation a stronger woman. Though she she is scathed for life – I hope that she can get the support and psychological counselling to make it.

I DONT THINK THEY SHOULD CONDEMN HER FOR SOMETHING THAT SHE WAS BORN WITH. SOMETHING SHE HAD NO CONTROL OVER, THEY NEED TO JUST LEAVE HER ALONE.

I don’t see condemnation…seriously, you believe it is fair that a woman with a man’s physique and chemistry runs track against women that don’t have the same advantages?? Like I said before, the people to blame are the coaches and South African track officials that allowed her to compete knowing how cutthroat international competition is. News today came out that a doctor told the South African coach or track officials she shouldn’t compete because of her “condition”. They bear the ultimate blame for this. It isn’t her fault!!

Test ‘em all!

I don’t believe some of what I’ve been reading. The “Woman” may not have been born with all of the reproductive organs a typical woman should have, but she was born with the most important one–a v****a. She was born, grew up, and has always been recognized as a woman, and should continue to be acknowledged as such. If we start telling women that they shouldn’t be competing in sports because they can’t have babies, then we should also tell homosexual men to stop hoarding all the girls that like to dance in night clubs. What does this have to do with anything. Nothing. That’s the point. A woman’s ovaries and uterus are not what wins her track meets. It’s the actual running.

Caster Semenya should not be placed on trial — it’s our society’s outmoded perspective on gender that’s due for an overhaul. That race for equality won’t be won until we’re all free to safely cross the finish line together. Read more: Stop Policing Caster Semenya’s Gender | RHRealityCheck.org http://bit.ly/17qVML

Armandx99…are you serious??? We can go back and forth about how much a woman she is, that is irrelevant in everyday life. But the bottom line is that she is equipped with male reproductive organs, namely testicles, and her hormone levels, which aid in muscular development and regeneration, are closer to those of a man than woman. Again…is it fair for her to compete with women who don’t have such an elevated testosterone level??

SUNOFAUSAR IS A DICK WHAT WILL U DO WHEN U HAVE A LIL GURL WITH THE SAME DISORDER OR AN SON WHO HAVE MY FEMALE STUFF C HOW FEEL THEN AND I RUN TRACK IN COLLEGE

Baby…Name calling aside, obviously you didn’t read a thing I wrote except for what you thought you could make use of in your argument. Trying to personalize the argument is not going to change a damn thing. To make things fair, all the women should be allowed to have the same amount of testosterone. Are you a man runnin with women?? If not, your runnin track is moot.

I ask all women to take the sensitivity out of your thoughts and use your better judgement. The reason why our bodies were made different is for this very reason alone, so “common sense” lets us know that this is clearly a man who has been altered. Everybody knows this, I want to see a catalog of “DOC**ENTED” cases of this very diagnosis or so they say. If he/she was all that he/she says, then none of the events after would never had taken place, instead it would be an uprise of not only her but all the people that know her fighting for this case, instead u hear a little hear and a little there but nothing persistent. Wake Up

I think it was wrong the way the situation was handled but, I can understand her sexuality being questioned. The first time I seen her, I thought to myself why are they allowing a young man to run against young ladies. That’s just a part of being human. However I feel that the parents had to have known something was wrong there. How can you not question that? I am a mother and I too would have questioned that had my daughter looked more like a boy than a girl. I wouldn’t want my daughter to go through what this young woman has been through so therefore, I would have taken her myself to get tested much sooner than they did or the team rather. My heart goes out to her because it is not her fault and I really hope she can get past this with the help of GOD. Now she know and hopefully she can get the counseling she need to accept what has happened to her and what she will have to go through with the whole world knowing her personal business. People can be so cruel…

Single1…finally another voice of maturity and reason in the debate. I agree 100%. This has been handled wrong by the people closest to Semenya. They are the ones who should have protected her. It’s almost like they threw her to the lions for a medal.

The most degrading and disrespectful incident ever to occur in the world of sports toward Black women.I will never watch or support the Olympics.Puuhhlease !
