In Canada last week a transgender bike rider won a race. The he/she rider had competed before as a male and now competes as a female. Should he/she be allowed to compete as a female?
Apparently it is going to be allowed in the next Olympics.
Does it mean that she/he's will be allowed to compete as males?
Will they be cheaters because of drug related reasons?

IMHO, it's all about the genetics. X's and Y's. I don't care if you have had 55 surgeries and you now look like Pamela Anderson, a DNA test will determine whether you swim in the men's or women's events. I am a republican by registration but actually am quite progressive when it comes to things dealing with sex, drugs, and medical research. However, when it comes to competition, I have to draw the line on my progressive nature.
