Women should be given the option to compete in the men's competitions but not made to. They should have their own events too. You'll probably find in most arenas women won't even try to compete with men because they won't be able to. I just don't like the idea of them being given a blanket 'no' without even a chance to try if they want. They shouldn't be given any extra dispensations though. And it would be really lame if they had to start looking like Paula Radcliffe to do it. Anyone remember that Russian female athlete that had to prove she was a woman because she looked so much like a man?
