This poor bloke who found out he was infertile during a premarital medical exam, for instance: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7760426/

Have you heard of the politician's fallacy, "something needs to be done, this is something, so this needs to be done"...

Your argument here is that... needing a test, and having a test, doesn't mean it's the right test.

You're also assuming that we even need a test... evidence (no transfemale olympians ever coming not dead last) suggests we don't.

Interesting. Perhaps a better test is needed.

This isn't just about trans women, but also about DSD cases like Imane Khelif and Caster Semenya.
