Why is Lukaku way bigger than other 12yr olds? He probably has a gene in him that made him bigger. If there was a $10M award for the best 12yr old, Do you think Lukaku wont be said to be competing unfairly since he has a gene that made him as tall as an 18yr old when he was 12
Being bigger is different from possessing male characteristics that provide an advantage in a female sport.

If this were the UFC for example, do you think Caster would be allowed or should be allowed to fight other women?

People will always complain regardless. Do you think we don't have some white people who think blacks have an unfair advantage in physical sports?
A 12yr old Lukaku was said to be physically bigger than other boys and some people complained, Same with Lebron

When we start catering to one complaint, then why not others?
No they will have no legitimate reason to complain as they will belong under same bracket. As far as sports go that is the only fair route.

We are talking of a hormone that implies possessing numerous traits of the physically stronger gender. In a sport where those traits clearly aid your ability to succeed

Ok if it oestrogen doesnt give you any advantage, testosterone does, If Usain Bolt can lower his testosterone enough will he qualify for female sports?

I dont agree with the idea of gender fluidity. it simply means A boy if he cant compete with fellow boys can take medications to allow him compete with girls and vice versa
Exactly. Oestrogen is not a hormone that provides athletic advantage. I do not know if it's humanly possible for Usain Bolt to lower his testosterone levels to be able to compete in female sport without borderline changing his sex

Well if the boy was born with female organs and can reduce his testosterone levels to the point where they are at par with a woman's then have at it
raumdeuter:
Appearance is also as a result of genes, Genes are responsible for height, muscle tone, ad everything that makes you male

Why should Semenya now take medication to adjust her natural genetic makeup?
She was literally born with male gonads.

Me personally I'm a proponent of Intersex sports. Let people with these unique traits have their athletic sport because there is no way people who do not enjoy these genetic advantages will not complain

What happens if a man has a high level of oestrogen? Does he play with the ladies?

I am thinking that when we start defining what gender is or should be beyond the features born with then it becomes a slippery slope
Oestrogen gives you 0% advantage as a man in any athletic competition. You would still have more testosterone than the average woman if you competed in female Sports

I think with the advent of gender fluidity and all the lines have been blurred.

raumdeuter:
To me, a woman is anyone who was born female and can get pregnant naturally the same with men and should compete in their gender sport

Its the same type of argument some female tennis players tried to use against the Williams sisters, that they were more masculine than say Justine Henin

Some effeminate men can also argue that physically strong, very tall, well built, thick baritone voice men have an advantage over them. So extremely tall, muscular strong men should be disqualified from competing with others

So with Semenya now, does she go to compete with men?
Appearing masculine is different from possessing high levels of testosterone and male hormones that would give you clear advantages. Neither Serena, Henin were ever found to discover higher than acceptable levels of testosterone required in females.

An effeminate man has no argument. He is not competing in a sport with a cap on testosterone levels.

No one asked her to compete with men or even act or behave effeminately. What Semenya and others like her are simply being asked to do is to take medication that will lower their testosterone levels to the acceptable level required in a female sports. This is bigger than Semenya and let's not lose sight of that

Lol. I can't help it. The lady don confess say no be today IAAF begin target her.
This ruling will apply to any woman with elevated levels of testosterone not just Caster. Let's be sincere and put the shoe on the other foot.

I understand that people might view her as a target but we are talking triple almost quadruple the normal levels of testosterone of her fellow competitors. It might be a natural edge but in a sport such as this it is simply not a fair one

Will there be an official testosterone level to compete in female or male sport?

If a male is found to have too low of these, can he be sent to the female event?
Lol the emphasis is on taking away an unfair advantage biologically. Whether we like it or not a woman competing with higher testosterone levels will always have the edge over fellow women

Brother this Team is different and they proved it against City the last time around. As far Son is available, this Group of players should be full of confidence going into the next game at the Cruijff Arena.
No be the same Tottenham I watch against West Ham? Hiann!!

They were very lucky vs City. If say that ref add 2 more minutes City for score again. Pep lo go ara e. They had no business losing to Spurs

chic2pimp:
I watched the Game vs Madrid and atlhough they were the better side over the two legs, Madrid definitely had their chances. If they had taken them, who knows what might have been. Remember this is not the NBA where generally the better team wins. This is a different Ball game altogether. A Game of "Who Can clinically take their chances when it present itself" not "Who the better Side is".
Lol Madrid no even get case. Ajax should have won home and away if not for that wayo ref in the first leg that cancelled a legit goal. I was guilty of underrating that Ajax side when they faced us in the group stage but when you go unbeaten in six matches vs Bayern, Juve and Madrid then you're a team to be feared.

I disagree. Tottenham know that they have to do two things to qualify. Win and get on the scoreboard atleast twice. So from their point of view, there is no messing about right from the Get go. Attack, Attack, Attack is the name of the game.
Lol this is Tottenham we are talking about here. They would be lucky to escape with a draw.

Ajax actually took their foot off the pedal in the second half. After watching their games against Madrid and especially the second half against Juve men I'm sorry but barring an early red card Tottenham don't have a prayer

No, i brought up facts to prove how the bald gambler was bailed out multiple times by his stacked teams and you brought up the 07 cavs. cheesy

Maybe if they had facilitation they would have better shots and would make more buckets. Assists dont just come without others scoring as well so these things are tied together.
Lol you have no argument here. Unless you can show me just 1 playoff series where Michael Jordan was not the best player on his team. 1 or two outlier games cannot possibly work against Jordan because we have LeNomad getting bailed out numerous times as well going by your logic

Are you serious? When did Houston Rockets have facilitation issues? They flat out missed numerous wide open looks!!
Assists are great but assists still involve you putting the game in someone else's hands. As a player your scoring is what you can control

ReysonDrabek:
Now whos moving goal posts? When did this become a comparison between east and west? how many times have lower seeded teams beat better seeded teams in the playoffs especially the teams with better players? Didnt the nets beat a higher seeded raptors that year? 22 year old Lebron beat a team with prime kidd carter and jefferson. And then he beat an experienced pistons team with a better record to get to the finals.
I'm telling you that you're greatly exaggerating the degree of difficulty. The Nets were a mediocre team that beat another mediocre team playing in a mediocre conference. It's not about the higher or lower seed. It's not a coincidence that the Spurs had it tougher getting out of the West than winning the NBA Finals

And no 34 year old Jason Kidd was not in his prime.

The Pistons were 3 years removed from a title. They were dying
ReysonDrabek:
NO He shot 44% from the field and 36% in the finals, and thats mostly due to his bad 3 point shooting. Plus he led his team in points assists and steals and second place in rebounds in that playoffs. The man made the finals with ilgauskas as his second best player. Put some respect on his name!
Nahi nahi. He shot 41% in the post season and 35 in the Finals. You can't get away with such bricklaying against better teams out West

And I'm telling you getting to the Finals is a lot easier playing against the dross in the Eastern Conference

ReysonDrabek:
So without the means how do you arrive at the end? How do you score without facilitation? How do you get possessions and extra possessions to score without rebounding?

Your point is your man was a specialist in one aspect of the game. LBJ is the whole package.

Lebron led a team past the 07 nets with jason kidd, vince carter and richard jefferson in their prime, then beat the immovable pistons with booby gibson and ilgauskas, thats what you call help? what then will you call beating scrubs with hall of famers on your team?
Lool stop complaining when I shoot you with your own gun. You brought up the GOAT shooting badly and the Bulls won in a blowout, I showed you LeNomad playing badly and the Cavs also won in a blowout! You can't keep bringing outlier examples to prove nonexistent points

Possessions and rebounding are useless when you can't make buckets. If the Rockets went even 3/27 instead of going 0/27 they would have beaten Golden State last year. Points is still the name of the game

Lmao you mean the same 07 Nets that finished 41-41 grin grin. Do you know if the Nets played in the West they wouldn't even make the playoffs?? Weakass team in a weak ass conference.

Even the 'immoveable' Pistons would not finish higher than 4th seed in the West and would have been killed by any of the teams that finished ahead of them.

Of course they helped. On defense, on rebounding. You didn't know your LeNomad was still a notorious brick merchant at the time? He shot 41% from the field overall and 35% in the Finals. How could they possibly help more with scoring when only LeNomad by himself was shooting 10/30 in games

Points win games! Not rebounds, not assists, points! All the other stuff are means to an end. The points are the end

I don't really care who you think is stacked or not that's not my concern. MJ was averaging 15 more PPG while shooting at a higher percentage. In this 'stacked' team

You brought out an outlier of a game to prove a non existent point! I countered that with the much maligned 2007 team to show you that even in that season LeNomad had help but you're still shifting the goalposts. If it's not about scoring then why did you make it about scoring?

You're missing the point. His team was so stacked all he ever needed to do was score and even when he didnt, it has already been proven his team mates step up to the plate to bail him out. Lebron does more than just score and carries most of the offensive work load for his team. No wonder his team went from 57 wins to 55 wins without him.

The cheek of this guy bringing up the 2007 cavs to prove how stacked lebrons teams are LMAO!
Lmaooo Jordan did more than just score. There's a reason he led the league in steals multiple times, made all-defense teams etc. Can you list any playoff series the GOAT didn't lead the Bulls in scoring? Jordan is not a stats padder else he could easily have led his team in all categories if he wanted to

Besides I can bring out multiple playoff games from that 2007 Cavs team where LeNomad was led in scoring. The 07 ECF was just one example

Who cares? Show me any Conference or NBA Finals where LeNomad scored 51% of the team's total. If the GOAT's team was so loaded then common sense dictates Jordan wouldn't ever need to score that many points to secure a Win.

Lmaooo your man actually shot 32/90 I know he was young but 35% from the field grin grin

I showed you a game where LeNomad was abysmal and the Cavs won comfortably thanks to his teammates. QED
