I was not sure how to word the “main” question, but I do have some questions regarding this

Here’s what orginal happened to make them test
Here’s a better link

She didn’t look quite feminine enough, so they mandated she see a doctor. I think they were expecting some sort of injected hormones to have caused it..I guess a man taking estrogen to looking for feminine? Or a female taking testosterone to be stronger? I’m not sure. Turns out she’s just intersex (that’s the correct term, right??) And they seem to be backing off. But, some say they may give a gold medal to the second place person.

Was it right that they even questioned her, just because of how she looks?
I personally think they should apologize, since she is indeed a woman regardless of having testes. I thought when it came to things like this, what the person feels they are is whatever sex/gender they choose to assimilate with is just what they are.

How should they proceed?
