One of the things that hasn't been talked about yet is the devastating effects of these gender tests on the people that fail them.

Imagine that one day for whatever reason, athletic competitions, et cetera, you take a medical test that you expect will confirm what you know and have deeply felt since birth. You were raised as female, you have no doubts about your gender identity, and your body and your reflection in the mirror confirm that.

Now imagine how you would feel if the results of that gender test aren't quite what you expected.
