Original Note:
The post gives the impression that IOC sex determination has always been based on passports. In fact this is a relatively new policy. "From 1958 to 1992, all female athletes underwent mandatory sex verification tests before taking part in any IAAF or IOC event." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_verification_in_sports#Chromosome_testing
