If none of the other athletes opposed it, no one else should have jack to say. The guys he's competing with are OK with it, so all the sofa-keyboard warriors should be as well. -EK

That is false.  Other athletes have spoken out against it.

It wouldn't change my opinion if that were true, but I'm curious if you read that or if you're just assuming.

It's only not a big problem because he didn't win.  But what if he had?

And that right there tells you that there's a problem.

Similarly, there are stories circulating now that the "manly" South African runner (who was forced to undergo a gender test in 2009) got a silver on purpose just to avoid the controversy if she had won.
