discussing the issue of fairness in sport

she very cleverly clarifies the Caster Semenya 46xy issue and also discusses Dr Rachel Mckinnon ( Dr philosophy)

She stands her ground and expresses her points well

Well done Sharon. She was spot on with every fact, stood her ground, didn't let SS slip anything past, pointed out Rachel McKinnon is doctor of philosophy not medical, is not a world class cyclist - masters in older age group and would be at age 70 plus level among men, and really fought to get SS to say what XY means which he dodged.
She was brilliant.

That was fantastic - SS was great but Sharon was awesome. She made her points well and didn’t let her message be misinterpreted. Love the bit ‘Dr of philosophy not a medical doctor’.

Wow!

She was very good indeed.

I've just posted about this on another thread! Woke up to it on my clock radio.

I was cheering for Sharon! SS put her under a lot of pressure and she was hugely impressive with her responses I thought.
