Blackout Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Born: 3 April 1911 Birthplace: Wierchownen, Poland Died: 4 December 1980 (shot to death) Best Known As: The female Olympic sprinter who turned out to be a man Name at birth: Stanislawa Walasiewiczowna Stella Walsh was a dominant sprinter of the 1930s and 1940s, the winner of 41 U.S. Championships in various events. Born in Poland, she emigrated to America and became a high school star in Cleveland. Competing for Poland at the 1932 Olympics she won gold in the 100-meter dash. At the Berlin Olympics of 1936 she lost at 100 meters to her bitter rival Helen Stephens; a controversy followed when Walsh's supporters hinted that Stephens was too fast to be a woman. (German doctors examined Stephens and announced she was in fact female.) Walsh continued to compete as an amateur until 1954 and was inducted into the U.S. Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1975. Five years later she was killed by a stray bullet at a Cleveland shopping center. An autopsy surprised everyone by showing that Walsh had male genitals and both male and female chromosomes -- a condition known as mosaicism. http://www.answers.com/topic/stella-walsh wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerryK Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 That's a great story. Being born "both" would have been an ugly mark back then...she kinda beat them at their own game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

war ensemble Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I always wondered, would a person born with "both" sexual characteristics be able to play in male sports or female sports, or both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
