A Lab Is Set to Test the Gender of Some Female Athletes - NYTimes.com

A Lab Is Set to Test the Gender of Some Female Athletes - NYTimes.com

An interesting, yet tricky, topic.

Some Questions:

1) Do you agree that some of the female olympic athletes should take the sex verification test? If one female athlete make an outstanding record or overwhelm other competitors, do you think there is a chance that actually she is a guy?

2) There are some people whose gender is hard to tell (i.e. chromosomal defect). If they want to join a physical competition like judo or taekwondo, in which side (gender) should they participate?-man or woman?

3) Do you agree that in some future woman can surpass man in physical competition?

4) What is your opinion about sex-change operation? If one of your family want to take that operation and he/she is so serious, what will you do?
