Would bet half a house that the rules regarding intersex athletes competing as women and not requiring testosterone lowering drugs will change in the future. Semenya's gold will likely become tainted in the eyes of others when they do. The bolded part is exactly what is happening right now.Simple fact is we have divisions in sport. So we have to divide competitors into divisions.
Under-age sport - it's black and white - when's your birthday?
Weight divisions - jump on the scale - black and white.
Male or Female - what do we use? Genitals? Chromosomes? DNA? Preference for reading Who magazine or Zoo magazine? Or.....hormone levels.
Draw a line. Maybe a few lines. But set the rules. And set the rules so they apply to SPORT - not to politically correct, non-discriminatory, judgemental, society fashions of the time.
