I assume you're talking about women's pole vaulting.

Fuck. I laughed.
I was shown it at a golf outing. Not sure it was even televised, but it's definitely making the rounds on social media.

The person of question took the gold. No one could have predicted that.
TONS of peeps saying XY chromosomes, internal testes, and high-T levels don't matter. Vagina and a good attitude = girl. Even though that's a mixed message, isn't it.

The question is, will the IOC move to clarify this stuff before the next cycle? Or do XX women need to... I don't know.... maybe split off and have their own sports leagues where they can compete on a level playing field?

The IOC does not take a position, in general, they leave it up to the world governing body. But they suspended the world governing body, so they are the temporary authority, and just use the "has this person identified as female for their whole life test" is my understanding. Boxing should have a new governing body before 2028, and they will decide future eligibility terms.

A cynical part of me was thinking, "We already have an Olympics where peeps with genetic abnormalities can compete. They take place right after the regular Olympics."

Did you see the Australian breakdancing competitor? It's worth it.
FYI, the male from Australia actually knew what he was doing and saved the country's reputation.

The holding-chin pose at the end made me chuckle.
I guess props for wheedling a free trip out of it? Too bad the cost was people around the world mocking you for three days.

That cartoon is accurate. The large breasted women don't dominate the Olympics. The ones with breasts have them duct taped down.
