1. Hairy on the outside
2. Soft and wet on the inside
3. Starts with a "c" and ends with a "t"

-There is of course an obvious answer, but I am pretty sure it isn't that, and that is what the joke is. So I was hoping one of you could help me come up with the non-obvious answer.


It’s a cKiwifruit aka the Chinese gooseberry

So women who are able to do that can't compete either? Seems completely FASCIST to me.

(*not counting chess, magic, poker, etc, as "sports" for now where there may not be an obvious genetic advantage to being male)

Edit: I liked fredd the frequent H&F poster but fredd the drop by with gold every two weeks poster is pretty good too.
My hot take is they just made the policy with the singular goal of blocking that runner so they'll probably just add a second rule to cover just this person. Maximize your inclusiveness by only targeting individuals as they emerge. A sound system.

Yeah the way they were obviously only targeting her because of how dominant she was is silly though the general idea seems sound. I wonder how she'd do switching to an event that doesn't have that rule?

Anyone ever do any analysis or comparison of her performance vs similar men’s events/competitors?

Lol she doesn't even have the women's WR by a full second, whole thing is stupid.

Edit: referring to Semenya.

Well, in fairness a lot of the women's WRs (including this one) are from the late 1980s-early 1990s and involve athletes from Eastern Bloc countries, so it is probably safe to say those women had much higher T values than she does.

Oh wow I didn’t know that. I had assumed with all the hoopla that she was a world crusher

TX,

I don't think she actually holds any WRs?

dead,

I guess some other definition of world crusher might be needed.
She has won all but one competition she's run in since the start of 2016. ~20 events.

She's pretty clearly the best ever and holds a meaningful number of the fastest 15ish times ever run. She was dominant from 09-12 as well, only really getting competition from someone actually on roids. For those that follow throwing she's basically Virgilijus mid-career.

I also agree with the Kelhus analysis of top performances. LOL at the 80s. What a time to be alive.

Men are super fast. She wouldn't qualify for anything basically ever. That was the joke I was making earlier about how someone as horrific at WLing as me could qualify for a national level comp as a woman. (albeit in a ****ty country)

Actually, I was looking at the California high school 800m state championship speeds, and any given year her speeds (when she is in top form at least) wouldn't come close to winning the race, but she would probably make the finals, so give credit where it is due.

Yes, women professional athletes can sometimes compare favorably to high schoolers.

Speaking of female athletes, I do enjoy the intellectual dishonest of women's soccer teams routinely getting routed by elite u16 teams. "It was just a friendly. They weren't trying."

Next someone is gonna tell me that Bobby Riggs didn't throw his match.

Hadn't heard of this so I googled for 20s. Here was my first hit, u15 for FC Dallas.

Not even sure FC Dallas would qualify as elite. If they did that, then the u15s at the Barca academy or something like that would probably be truly brutal.

Are you a doctor? You wanna help some bros who want to step on the untested stage/powerlifting platform use the **** they're going to use anyway but safely under your medical supervision and guidance? **** NO, 27 MONTHS IN PRISON, SCUM!

You want to help a 10 year old with mentally ill abusive parents permanently change his or her physiology by artificially switching genders via exogenous hormones well before the 7 year old has the mental capacity to understand the gravity of this decision? You are a brave hero! Stand up to the patriarchy!

Maybe the 4+ kilos of dope was a potentially mitigating circumstance.
