    If you spent more than five minutes looking into this you’d understand that there’s a whole lot more to it than presentation. Some people are born intersex. Some biological women are born with two xx chromosomes. Some biological men are born with xy chromosomes. Etc etc. It’s nice that your mom and sister have it all clear. A good portion of humanity has to fight to explain their place every day

      I personally believe in a traditional binary understanding of gender based on biological sex, but I am acknowledging that others may have different perspectives based on their beliefs. That’s ok.

        Well, that’s cool and all but you haven’t addressed anything I wrote.

        What does

        “traditional binary understanding of gender based on biological sex”

        do to explain individuals that are born intersex? Or with chromosome xx but female biological sex organs? Etc etc.

        Please address what I actually wrote.

        We haven’t even began to discuss concepts such as gender. We haven’t moved past fifth grade biology in this conversation yet.
