Who gets to compete? Since the beginning of women’s sports, there has been a struggle over who qualifies for the women’s category. Tested follows the unfolding story of elite female runners who have been told they can no longer race as women, because of their biology. As the Olympics approach, they face hard choices: take drugs to lower their natural testosterone levels, give up their sport entirely, or fight. To understand how we got here, Host Rose Eveleth (they/them) traces the surprising, 100-year history of sex testing.

This podcast is so good! Great storytelling. Sharing stories that haven’t been told/shared widely. Used sport to remind us to think outside of the binary. Appreciated the book recommendations shared throughout.
Science and biology are real!

Excellent podcast!! My only criticism is that the author should have also interviewed women athletes in the middle of the trait distribution and asked them about their questions and feelings. The podcast rightly focuses on complexities and inclusion but the complexity and potential pain involves everybody in the distribution of a trait. I do think a lot of people in the major sport organizations are trying to do their best with an incredibly complex and painful issue that affects athlete lives. To sum up, while I really enjoyed the podcast and admire the intention of explaining this difficult topic and the pain of the affected athletes, I think it was a bit too partisan. Nevertheless, it’s a great listen! So thank you!
Thank you so much for this

As a non binary person who struggled so much growing up with feelings of self hatred, shame, and feeling like the world did not want me included in it, this podcast is so validating and important. If we could draw on our empathy and really understand what trans and gender variant people go through we wouldn’t be so caught up in thinking that medals and upholding the binary was so crucial. Thank you for such a thorough, thoughtful and beautiful expose and story.
