Comment on Denying the Human Sex Binary Turns Biology into Nonsense

Biology isn’t even relevant here, we’ve surpassed evolution, there is absolutely no reason why someone shouldn’t change their gender if they want to. Apart from that, I find it hilarious how confident conservatives are about this, the situation isn’t that simple, there is a number of naturally present aneuploidies including the sex chromosomes. Even in the usual XX and XY variants, parts of the Y chromosome are homologous to X and the expression of sex-specific genes is modulated by epigenetic factors. In practice the concentrations of the sex chromosomes are not on/off and can vary fluidly. With these simplifications, you are just displaying your ignorance of biology.

Those are all variations within a sex. You’re confusing sex with the phenotype and genotype.
Anyone can change their gender because it’s all made up. Nobody can change the type of gametes they do or would produce.
