It's not hyperbole, either. There was an Indian swimmer named Pratima Gaonkar. Born a girl. Raised a girl. She trained her whole life, competed, etc. And then she failed a "sex verification test," and ended up killing herself. indianexpress.com/article/spor...

The rising star who ended her ...

I get that what that dude in his screenshot post to Twitter is trying to do is to frame this as trans women being over the top or whatever, but in the screenshot, she's very clearly talking about the effect that this policy could have on people who are not trans.

And yeah, it'll absolutely "ruin lives" for a cisgender woman (again, born female, raised as a girl, blah blah etc., the whole deal) who has been training since she was basically a toddler to compete in the Olympics to suddenly find out she's not considered a woman as the result of a DNA test.

Think about how jarring it would be to learn that. To get to the level of something like the Olympics and suddenly not only are you banned, but your whole identity is thrown into question? You suddenly have people referring to you as a "biological male" and a "man" and whatnot?
