Gender Bender

" What -- going back in session on the docket today gender Bender taking its toll on a promising teen track star. Eighteen year old -- some idea of South Africa withdrawing from the competition this past weekend in her native country. All this after unconfirmed reports. That the gender testing she was forced to undergo. Proved she is her math for tonight -- a person with both male. And female sex organs."

" Feel that that nailed all female. That internal body may be male or female. That extra little characteristics may be male or female. And you get mixes of these that's why these these conditions of it complicates this will be thirty or forty different types of condition that somebody can."

" Complicated indeed -- was forced to submit to the gender tests after speculation emerged on the track that she may indeed be a man. So the question now. Is -- could that this sports authorities take away her gold medal she's the world championship in the 800 meter champion and could she still. For what is undoubtedly a privacy violation given the release of these medical records let's ask our panel. Defense attorney mark I mark and Fox News legal analyst Mercedes -- morning panel in morning in our rights are now. Late last week we hear the results they are not confirmed it's an Australian newspaper that claims to have the results I have not heard that confirmed by authorities although. They seem to be saying with a wink and a nod that the reports are right they say she's at her map for that. Meaning in what they say this means is in her particular case she's got male testes that are. On descended inside of her body but female genitalia. Given all of that mark. She may not have known. That she had any male characteristics whatsoever. And should only take away her gold medals which is one of the things many people are pushing for an think should happen."

" This is a tough one Megan I have a daughter so I take this personally this is my beautiful Julia. She's five years that made if you ever wanted to compete at that level. If she is yeah my baby. If -- ever wanted to compete at that level I'd be very concerned because she'd be competing against somebody -- testosterone level."

" Is that of a man however if my baby look like fifth. Yeah Arnold does okay."

" If you look like -- and Australia yet caught on Spain and you don't on things I well. I listen. -- she was born that way he's always lived at the woman the rules as I see them the way I interpret and that she is a woman. There are people of unfair advantage is merely because of genetics. The seven foot ten basketball player has made it a certainty that I will never played in the NBA. Let her be."

" Interesting point Mercedes that she may have a genetic advantage because they say she has three times the testosterone. As it quote normal woman. Mark points out accurately a lot people have genetic advantages it doesn't keep them out of the sport and it's absolutely true but in this case to get a little deeper than because."

" She must've had some knowledge that she was a little different I'm gonna get a little clinical here because apparently some of the reports that some of the reports are that she didn't have the anatomical. Parts to actually -- So there's certain things that she would have had at least constructed -- she wasn't really a woman and then fitting that side. The fact that her coaches when they entered her said we -- cancer and a woman and want her to stay that way. So there's still. At least something out there something smells rotten in Denmark. -- Vic Hester was very different you know and they even setting aside her body and like tabloid friendly and it isn't true marketing isn't necessary to have somebody somebody."

" He's athletes we see in gymnastics all the time they get so thin so super rich in terms of the muscles that they actually stop having a cycle. I mean you might she might never have gotten a cycle and as as many female athletes don't and it doesn't lead them to believe -- I'm lacking an ovary and I ovaries and uterus and leave them to believe. I'm a top athletes or is it is plausible that they definitely got to correct."

" That's correct and also a dear friend of mine is an attorney here in south Florida Keys from South Africa and she explained. That not every woman. Like in the United States season gynecologist routinely now that it's possible that she never really explored all those personal issues that Mercedes so eloquently described."

" But what about the fact that her coaches that we enter as a woman and that's the big issue they must've known how I don't see how that such a smoking gun. You know Lincoln because when they did enter her the fact that they even said that it seemed a little weird why was there ever any doubt that she was a woman to begin with. And there had been these rumors floating around apparently the gender verification process. Was brought upon by the other -- it's not obviously not but you could but it -- in the officials. Coaches came from organs saved me you know -- It setting aside the -- to me look a little different with some of these star athlete do you have this incredible body and there is no doubt about their gender. But let's let's have a gender verification to that and -- particular."

" What thing that I easily quickly into an art is that -- the South African authorities have come out and said. That he's -- that even this discussion. Is racist and sexist. And they say that if they kick her out if it EI AF IAF that's that's the international. Athletics -- if they kicker out of the sport and that quote. We threaten a third war world war over this we will go to the highest loan. -- testing such a decision I mean headed speed -- could wind up. Not being able to run with the women. And not being able to run with it."

" That's possible and that's what I'm hoping that we can avoid. Let's change the facts let's go old school to the east German women. Who would show up arguably would be heard that muscles like Arnold Schwarzenegger back in the day they are apparently. More like science project it was so doped up. I think the rules are there to prevent that unfair treatment I don't think that's too much -- she was born this way she's an eighteen year old. Woman I just I I really feel for her and I think that if she was just born that way letter day."

" On the other hand rescission got a feel for the other women who have to compete against her when she is three times the testosterone the -- and she does have male testes according to this report due to the last web apps."

" Literally making and that's and pulled down to work -- full circle here like mark little girls shouldn't be competing with someone who's got three times that leveled to susteren. They're going to be faster more muscular and they're going to be able to be."

" All those when there are real questions now about whether she'll wind up suing. This organization that may have leaked to the reports of her sexuality -- since it's on the table for whether she can run it -- now it may be fair game. We'll have to wait to find out that the official results being released in November Mercedes and mark thank you so much. We've got a word from our viewers of Katz listening has male sex acts and three times the testosterone as a normal woman. How can she be allowed to run. In the female races how is that fair to the other competitors. I feel for this woman and this matter was clearly mishandled. But is sports fair is fair and it is not just cast of some Pena who's running future needs to be considered --"
