The UN needs to stay out of women's sports.  These people don't know what they are talking about.

At least the issue is clear here:

A spokeswoman for World Athletics said of Bachelet’s report: “We have common ground in that we both believe it is important to preserve fair competition in female sport so women are free to compete in national and international sport.

“To do this, it is necessary to ensure the female category in sport is a protected category, which requires rules and regulations to protect it. Otherwise, we risk losing the next generation of female athletes, since they will see no path to success in female sport.

“The mere creation of a female category is discriminatory but it can be a necessary and proportionate means of achieving a legitimate objective. This was the reasoning of the Court of Arbitration for Sport when it upheld our Female Eligibility regulations last year.

“The Court of Arbitration for Sport found the regulations to be ‘a necessary, reasonable and proportionate means of attaining a legitimate objective’ of ensuring fair competition in female athletics.”

This Bachelet character must still operate under the mistaken idea Semenya is a "she." He is a man who cheated in women's events. The end.

If COVID-19 doesn't get you, the deer might, especially if you have a dog with you.

Blacktail does will randomly attack people and pets to protect their young fawns, biologists says.

More than a dozen calls of aggressive deer have come to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife from Ashland in the past two weeks, with a handful coming from Medford and Jacksonville, ODFW records show.

It’s almost always a doe — a female deer — likely worried that a dog will munch her fawn.
