What makes a woman, a woman? At least in the eyes of the Olympics...? In this episode Wil Williams introduces us to Tested, an investigative series that seeks to understand the complicated issue of gender testing in the Olympics.
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, Tested traces the surprising, 100-year history of sex testing.
