Shame for humanity how this wonderful woman was harassed based on some irrational ill-defined societal norms. Fixing a norm is up to nature and not to the IAAF. They must realise it. As an indian I feel proud of her extraordinary performance and how she made this so far from a difficult socioeconomic background. Respect for this beautiful soul. Bravo !

Where does sexuality comes in between when someone feels passionate to serve for the motherland. For all of us she should be known as an "Indian Olympic athlete" and this is what matters actually. It's time that we not only update ourselves with technology but also with high thinking. For me she is a human then she is an Indian and then she is an athlete. I hope she would also love to be recoganized by all of us the same way. It is "respect" that she deserves not the humiliation that she has gone through. Fight back Dutee Chand!

[@vibhorejaiswal2997]

Not her sexuality but yes hard science i.e biology comes in between. According to it she is a biological male with testosterone levels of a male which is a cheating to other women but shame he can't even win with her basic physical advantage Being indian doesn't mean being unfair or a cheater .

Dutee chand is intensely criticised in odisha for being gay,but does she deserve it?No,sexuality and genders are two different things,choosing to be lesbian doesn’t make her less of a woman,but here the ill minded and low mentality people of Odisha keep on blaming her,and also sports management even questioned her gender,which is unacceptable.Proud of her ,she is a champ who got a lot of medals for our country.She was ,is and will always be the pride of Odisha and India.Jai hind ,stay blessed.

[@piyushaggarwal501]

I totally support her, but the issue in sports world is that testosterone in athlete plays huge role as it is directly related to muscle mass - recovery - performance....as female athletes have lower testosterone than male counterpart they will find hard to compete with males on same level in same sports ,thats why there are male and female categories....so as she says she's now coming out of the closet,she may have higher level of testosterone than a female ,so she may have advantage playing along with females....no discrimination just a fact being a fitness instructor.... There was a case in usa as trans were allowed to compete in some college level completion with females, which came out as a crushing victory for the trans athletes over female counterparts..
