I suspect Kathryn's proposal makes more deep sense than any other,
including chromosome complement. Sporting authorities are going to have to
come to terms, if they haven't already, with the fact that some XY people
are female because they lack the enzyme that enables testosterone or one of
its precursors to set off the usual XY masculinizing cascade (IIRC).
