Another way to detect a male presence is to measure the amount of testosterone in their urine – which is what I thought they were doing until now. Is it just the Chinese Olympic committee getting their jollies or is it an elite, world-wide Olympic club of perverts? How closely do they inspect the genitalia and what are their “expert” guidelines?

BTW: Do olympians actually have that much sex that they need so many condoms, or was Durex just doing a publicity campaign? An athlete needs his essence, so he can channel every amount of his strength including sexual energy during the olympics. I’m pretty sure that very few if any are having sex during that crucial 2 weeks.

Wow, it’s really scary how we seem to be progressing back in time in so many ways; walled garden become stronger; young kiddies more willing than ever to give away all their prive info on cool corpspaces & bookfaces.

I just wrote a piece on the TS Imperial Court, which runs the world-wide Queen of the Universe pageants, which of course, the web series, GENDER BLENDER, covers.

These women are so open and without shame, of course, that openness and a open, TS or queer or even healthy sexualty is a radical challenge to a fascist, hyper-consumerist party that depends on objectification and keeping hte masses satiated with materialism.

I’d love China to come face-face with a TS Olympic participant.

Wonder how many more years until things really explode? We know what happens when repression, sublimation builds, babeee….

I strongly suspect a lot of this has to do with the years of accusation (sometimes rightly placed to boot) that China is changing the gender of male athletes to win female competitions. It perhaps is offensive, but at the same time how offensive is it to be a female and be beaten by someone who should never have been in the competition in the first place?

Good for you for writing about this, Violet. Just want to point out two things. The Tiananmen Square massacre took place in 1989, not 1964. And the suspects, though women, are supected to be men. Therefore, the suspicion is not that women are tricky, and would otherwise beat the boys in their own contests, but that men are somehow trying to get infiltrate a women’s competition. Ultimately, it’s still a suspicion of women not *looking* like women, and therefore needing to be tested, but it’s not about women being better at sports. The whole thing is a bit more twisted up, as gender generally is anyway ;)
