It’s not unknowable, you’re just being intentionally obtuse. It’s knowable with better science, it’s just possible that an expert is wrong. If they’re wrong, that doesn’t change reality.

Someone’s sex exists regardless of my ability to discern it. Your example is bad faith trolling.

If it’s irrelevant then just ignore it. You can’t handle the truth and so you troll and try to derail and accuse and insult.

Yes, your abject uselessness at that shines through most things you say. At last something we can agree on.

So having complained about me calling it unknowable, you admit that it’s undiscernable (which is of course completely different /s), we come back to the irrelevance of everything you said to everyday life.

  Again, not undiscernable. Are you able to understand that?

    I love that you admit that you can’t do it and even that the greatest experts mightn’t be able to do it but yet still believe it’s a useful definition! It’s a useless and crap definition! Actually useless! Complete crap!
    
    Chromosomes are testable. Verifyable. Take a blood sample, some time in the lab and it’s done! This is why scientists use them to define sex. Your definition is untestable! It’s not science. It’s pseudoscience. It sounds plausible because it uses technical terms, and stupid people believe it because it sounds clever. But because you believed trump, who is famously very stupid, you have believed a stupid thing, and you can’t stop talking about it, in public!
    
    If I found out that trump had duped me into believing some pseudoscience, I would be ASHAMED. You, not so much.

    Sadly I think you missed this. Again, not undiscernable. Are you able to understand that?
    
    You should let the author of this text book know that his definition is complete crap lol:
    
    In sexually reproducing animals, there are two sexes, the male and the female. There may be different ways to express maleness or femaleness, as we will see, but the divide is a real one. […] We have already defined male and female based on gonads and on the type of gametes produced in those gonads, either eggs or sperm.
