Yeah, and those are malformations and genetical defects that come with a lot of problems.

I don’t know why people glorify them… Also, there is absolutely no way that a man born with XY magically will change it in their lifetime as the posts sugests.

This article seems to disagree. But I don’t know much on the subject so I might be misunderstanding.

Also, no matter what the correct answer is, pretending the answer is binary is definitely wrong. Since it’s obviously a lot more complicated.

  From the article:
  
  “Girls born with XY chromosomes are genetically boys but for a variety of reasons – mutations in genes that determine sexual development”
  
  And again, they don’t magically become the other sex, that was already determined at birth.

    No, not magically, no. You’re right.

    Well, to be fair, not magically and not in any other way, it is impossible to change your sex

The post suggests that some people with XY chromosomes are assigned female at birth and will live as a woman.
And some people with XX chromosomes are assigned male at birth and will live as a man.
Not that the chromosomes change.
