In other news of the day: Female athletes of the future may not be so female
"The final appeals court for global sports further blurred the line separating male and female athletes on Monday, ruling that a common factor in distinguishing the sexes — the level of natural testosterone in an athlete’s body — is insufficient to bar some women from competing against females."

On the one hand, few people care about female athletics save for the exceptional situation. On the other hand what is the point of having a separate division for females if the testosterone of the female competitors is far above normal levels for the female sex?
