"the Olympic Committee, she-males/he-womyn can take hormones to alter their bodies, but men/women can't take steroids to alter their bodies?"
Thus self-destructs the idea of meaningful competition. How can a woman compete with someone who grew to full stature under the influence of male hormones (bone and muscle structure, etc) even if he has been taking female hormones for the past two years?!?

Not a really good question. If the woman can't compete, she will lose. End of story.

I am really not worried at all about this. Nobody pathetic enough to try to change their sex in the first place will have the patience and will to be an olympic athelete. It will be many years, if ever, before any transexual (meaning somebody who has actually had the operations, not just some male athlete dressed as a female) can beat the finest female atheletes in the world. In fact, I look forward to watching the female athletes kick transexual butt all over Athens.
