XY genetics is male. The expression of secondary sexual characteristics is dependent on their gonadal function.

I do not know what the IOC, or whoever makes the rules for the Olympics is using as criteria, but I know I do not agree with what they used.

I agree that from an Olympic standpoint, we need a level playing field and they should not potentially endanger other athletes so perhaps the XY rule ought to apply there, particularly for those with Swyers syndrome that could have an advantage. I’m not sure someone with Morris syndrome would have an advantage.
