i can't believe that they are still entertaining the idea to "strip the medal off her" after they've taken her victory and made it into this ugly offensive thing. Imagine being a teenager and having your sex (we're talking genitalia, hormone levels, "boyish" qualities, internal sexual makeup, and every damn thing else) talked about in the media all over the world. People leave shitty comments about you being a man all over the internet and talk about how you don't deserve something you've worked for since you were a kid. People post unflattering pictures of you and pick them apart in a very insensitive and public way. You are 18. WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK. Why is the world so full of assholes.

" Speaking about the gender row in an interview with the South African magazine YOU Semenya later said 'I see it all as a joke, it doesn't upset me. God made me the way I am and I accept myself'. "

what an amazing person you are, Caster Semenya.
