Chinese Gymnast ARE NOT OVER 16?

Question

what do you think

Answer 1

I think Chinese look a lot younger than they are..but who knows really

Answer 2

I think the two that keep competing (I cannot remember their names) are not 15 and that someone needs to find proof they are not and then they need to take their gold away and ban the girls from competing again in the Olympics

Rules are rules,  and of course their passport says their of age because they are from China, where the Olympics are

Answer 3

hmmm dubious, MAYBE they're underage, my parents think the same as you.

BUT there are always exceptions. so they could be just looking younger. remember different races have different complexions, so ya.

Answer 4

I think I'd be in alot of trouble if I tried to marry one in two years.

Answer 5

they have to be its the rules!!

Answer 6

they look so young! i reckon they look 12!

Answer 7

i don't think they're 16 or over, i can't believe they are allowed to compete without anyone saying anything !

Answer 8

In the first place, I question the international gymnastics sports body for setting a minimum age restriction for competitors. If United Kingdom has a 14 years old male diver (Tom Daley), why should they set a minimum age restriction of 16 years old for gymnastics? I am basing my opinion on the fact that both diving and gymnastics are sports that are similar in terms of execution and difficulties of moves. I am an advocate of the fact that if you are good enough, you are old enough.

However, rules are rules and are meant to be followed. If China really break the rules and field competitors below 16 years old, I think it is disappointing that they have to resort to such acts in their hunger for medals.  

Answer 9

15 going to 16 this year is acceptable.

One is 17 and one is 20.

Answer 10

early reports put at least 2 of them at 13/14

the 'official chiness statement' is that the reports misquoted / mis spoke

I do believe the early reports however.

It's unfair they can cheat & get away with it but look at like - hello - they're chiness they aren't known for their morals - dog food recalls, toothpaste recalls, lead paint in toys (remember they guy killed himselfover that one) they make illegal counterfeit drugs that kill us, and they are communist etc

I could go On & on......
