Renee' Richards - Born A Man
Polish athlete Ewa Klobukowski - Born with ambiguous genitalia.
In the 1938 Olympic games, Dora Ratien was deemed to be A Man.
Because of her all around athletic ability and her dominance in track & field, many thought Babe Didrikson was also a man.
Now it's Caster Semenya's turn.Admittedly - I often questioned the gender of some Eastern Block athletes -
But since the International Olympic Committee has already ruled on the eligibility of athletes of questionable gender;
is it really a moot point?
