Keely Hodgkinson is magnificent. The women’s 800m in Rio 2016 had 3 men take gold, silver and bronze. If World Athletics hadn’t changed the rules after that, Keely would certainly have no medal tonight. pic.twitter.com/4PMluV8mFq

How would we all be feeling this morning if a male DSD athlete had been running this year and had stolen Keely’s Gold for Team GB?
Unthinkable? Hardly! A male DSD won in Rio 2016. https://t.co/HAmmBkCJ8F

We have not forgotten the injustice that was meted out to:
Melissa Bishop @BishopMelissa
Joanna Jozwik
Lynsey SharpRio, 2016, when the 🥇🥈🥉medals for Women's 800m were stolen by XY males, and the ladies were shamed for not thanking them for it. #IOCHatesWomen pic.twitter.com/WmwBrMinbN
