Rand 和 Ramteen：从1966年开始的强制性女性运动员身体检查，以及拒绝检查的后果，引发了对这一做法的质疑和反思。检查被称为“裸体游行”，对女性运动员造成了极大的羞辱和困扰。 Rose Eveleth：1928年阿姆斯特丹奥运会是女性首次参加田径比赛，但女性运动员的体能和表现一直受到质疑，媒体报道中存在明显的性别偏见。1928年奥运会女子800米比赛后，组委会甚至考虑禁止所有女子田径项目。对女性运动员的质疑，不仅在于她们的竞技能力、市场价值或健康问题，更在于对她们性别身份的怀疑。从女性参与奥运伊始，男性管理层就对她们的性别身份表示怀疑。 Celestine Karony：克里斯汀·博马的例子说明了DSD运动员在体育比赛中面临的困境，她们的成功经常被归因于激素水平而非训练和努力，媒体叙事中也存在性别偏见。 Michael Waters：研究人员在奥运研究中心档案馆中未能找到关于早期性别检测政策的明确解释，但通过分析档案文件，可以推断出体育官员对女性运动员性别身份的担忧，源于对作弊行为、女性“男性化”以及女性运动员并非真正女性的担忧。 Jörg Krieger：20世纪30年代，体育官员的非正式聚会被称为“啤酒协会”，这些场合的讨论内容并未被记录下来，但可以推断出他们对女性运动员的期望和控制欲。 Lindsay Piper：20世纪初的“平衡理论”认为个人的性别特征并非绝对，可以通过后天因素改变，这加剧了对女性运动员性别身份的担忧。 Sheila Lerwell：一些西方运动员对苏联女性运动员的体格和成绩表示质疑，认为她们“过于男性化”。 Carol Martin：1966年英联邦运动会上，女性运动员需要进行侵入性身体检查以确认其性别，这被认为是“裸体游行”，对女性运动员造成了极大的羞辱和困扰。

In 1966, the governing body of the Olympic track and field event started mandatory examinations of all women athletes. These inspections would come to be known as "nude parades," and if you were a woman who refused the test, you couldn't compete.We're going back almost a century to the first time women were allowed to compete in Olympic track and field games, and to a time when a committee of entirely men decided who was a female and who wasn't.Today on the show, we bring you an episode from a new podcast from CBC and NPR's Embedded called Tested.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoices)NPR Privacy Policy)
