"I don't understand when you say I have an advantage because I am a woman. When I pee, I pee like a woman. I don't understand when you say I am a man or I have a deep voice," she said on the show.
"How the hell can you change gender in the rural areas? I am a woman. We don't have good doctors, we are not rich to do such procedures," the runner continued.
"I know I like man's stuff; that is not a question. The question is where do I fall in? I am a female; that is not a question, that is how I have been raised since I was young," she said.
Caster also shed light on how the gender testing fiasco of 2009 affected her family. "My mother was affected because she was the one who was changing my nappies when I was young," she said. - Daily Sun
