The gender trap
We're familiar with drug testing for athletes, but officials at the Beijing Olympics will be taking things one stage further and examining competitors whose sex is in doubt. And it is far from being a new problem, as Emine Saner discovers.

The Brandon Teena Story: Collector's Edition
Someday, when sexuality and gender are less of a shooting affair, the 1990s are likely to be viewed as a turning point. The Brandon Teena case in 1993 and the Matthew Shepard case in 1998 forced Americans to confront, on tape and on video, the twisted hatred that gays, lesbians and transgendered people have long endured.
