Biology is never concrete.

“Intersex” is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male... Or a person may be born with mosaic genetics, so that some of her cells have XX chromosomes and some of them have XY."

I find very strange the compulsion that some people have to claim other people don't exist. They DO exist. If their existence disproves a theory to which you have become emotionally committed, then get over it and change your theory.

If only it were so simple. Genotype, phenotype, developmental and behavioral all run a spectacular gamut of variations.

It's much more amazing than any simple dichotomy.

Am I the only person here who doesn't give a shit what other people's genders or gender identities are? Just build single-user bathrooms like the ones in everyone's houses and be done with it. Unless I'm having sex with you, your gender, biological or psychological, doesn't mean jack diddly shit to me.

I understand your point...
However... if you attach a dangle or a mangle and you get someone to love you and fuck it. What business is it of ours?

Just go to an exotic whorehouse and order yourself up a lactating hermaphrodite. It will all become perfectly clear.

HE ? Him ? She ? Her ?

You can just call me "excellency."

Even if one gets a surgeon and plastic surgeon to snip, fold, tuck, shape, sculpt, or attach an extremity, with dangling sacks of tissue underneath, along with hormone treatment in either case (estrogen or testosterone therapy), it never changes the gender of that person that acquired while in utero (when the specialized cells underwent mitosis based on chromosomes*).

*In this system, the sex of an individual is determined by a pair of sex chromosomes (gonosomes). Females have two of the same kind of sex chromosome (XX), and are called the homogametic sex. Males have two distinct sex chromosomes (XY), and are called the heterogametic sex.

But you are so wrong as libertarians frequently are. Some of the hottest women out there are actually men. They have XY chromosomes but can't process testosterone. Since everyone starts as a female body, yes you were once a girl, then develops into a male when testosterone is produced and processed these men never physically become men, they stay women.. Usually really good looking, really well built women.

Look up Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome. https://jenapincott.wordpress.com/2009/06/01/when-the-perfect-woman-is-genetically-male/

I always liked the unisex public bathrooms all over France. While you stand pissing at the urinal women are wandering in and of the stalls and washing at the sinks. Or the outdoor urinals just attached to a building with no walls or anything.
