male or female?caster semenya is from south africa and she just won the 800 meter in berlin. people are speculating about whether or not she is a female because of her "muscular build and deep voice." i'll admit it, i thought she was a man before i read that she is a girl. how sad is that?
her coach didn't make it any better when he said, "we understand that people will ask questions because she looks like a man. it's a natural reaction and it's only human to be curious. people probably have the right to ask such questions if they are in doubt. but I can give you the telephone numbers of her room-mates in berlin. they have already seen her naked in the showers and she has nothing to hide." he is obviously a very sensitive person.
they are doing gender testing that takes like three weeks to decide if she qualifies to enter as a female. how does it take three weeks to decide what gender someone is. i always thought it was pretty simple, but i guess not?
what if she is like a hybrid of both genders and that is why she runs so well? i mean, anything's possible.

i love your blog. it's my official fave.
just wanted you to know, I bought a plaid shirt today and thought about you all the way to the checkout
it's possible to look like a female and be genetically male. i bet they're refering to DNA tests.
hahahaha. that's the saddest and most hilarious thing i've read all day. i may have my own problems, but at least gender identity is not one of them. thank goodness. poor girl/boy
oh, paige. i miss you. your blog is HI-larious.
