Kristen Worley and Santhi Soundarajan have never met. But Canadian transsexual cyclist Worley, according to gaywired.com, a netzine supporting the cause of gays, is fighting the cause of the Indian athlete and other victims of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS).
Worley, a Beijing Olympics hopeful — accepted as a member of the Canadian team despite a sex change from male to female — wants Santhi, stripped of her Doha Asian Games 800m silver medal after failing a gender test, to get the medal back. Santhi allegedly attempted suicide last month.
Worley has taken up Santhi’s cause with International Olympic Committee (IOC) president Jacques Rogge
