haha, that happened inthe '86 olympics; the winner of some women's race was found to be a XY individual with gonadal dysgenesis or something. the testosterone meant that they had a male-like body; long legs, lean muscles, etc. etc. and made them much more athletically inclined.

although, i didn't know having too many Ys would affect you that much. hrm. interesting.
