Breaking News: Yahoo! Commenter Improbably Solves Complex Gender Issue

BERLIN (AP) -- Facing questions about her gender, South African teenager Caster Semenya easily won the 800-meter gold medal Wednesday at the world championships.

Her dominating run came on the same day track and field's ruling body said she was undergoing a gender test because of concerns she does not meet requirements to compete as a woman.

The process requires a physical medical evaluation and includes reports from a gynecologist, endocrinologist, psychologist, internal medicine specialist and gender expert.

(Scene: Sports Testing Laboratory in Berlin. Everyone has German accents. Stefan is reading Yahoo!)

Stefan: "Hans, have you seen this?"
Hans: "No, what?"

(Hans leans in over Stefan's shoulder and reads.)

Stefan: "Has anyone tried this?"

(Pause.)

Hans: "I feel very stupid for not thinking of this."
Stefan: "It is not your fault, Hans. We are scientists! We are trained to question."
Hans: "But the solution was right there before our eyes!"

(Pause.)

Stefan: "Would you prefer to lift her tail or do the looking?"
Hans: "We will flip a coin."
Stefan: "Okay. What is heads and what is tails?"

(They both break out into hysterical laughter.)

Hans: "I am German and that is even funny to me!"
