That is a shame, but Caster is Intersex and it would be unfair to all female athletes if Caster were to continue competing against female athletes with the benefits of male gonads and high testosterone levels.

Intersex is not a bad thing and does not mean Caster is broken, it just means that she is in between the Male and Female sex and we should start considering adding Intersex competition to address this issue and to be fair to Intersex people who shouldn't have to hide their identity.

I think that most of the blame should be placed on her coaches and trainers. All athletes that compete at a professional level are thouroughly examined by physicians to make sure that they are healthy enough to compete. They knew, but all that they wanted was to ride her coat tails to fame and glory. She did not know any better, only what the adults told her. She has been training since she was a young child. Her family may not have known, but I am sure that those who train her knew. I'm also pretty sure that the South African government knew. When will they be held accountable?
