China to test Olympic Athletes' Gender

Hey Folks. This is an older article that I'd originally sent out to the GLAAM listserv. Krista asked me to post it to the blog, but for some reason I've had excessive amounts of difficulty getting logged into the blog. Eventually it worked out for me, but if anyone else is having trouble, please email either Krista or me. Here's the link:

Published: July 30, 2008
Olympic organizers have set up a sex-determination laboratory to evaluate the external appearance, hormones and genes of “suspect” female athletes.

I'd be interested to see what the IOC, or national Olympic committees might do in the case of an athlete who identified as a trans person or who was in transition/post-transition. Thoughts?
