I rest my case. I guess I can add wrong and objectively to the list of words you don’t know.

I’m terribly sorry that I’ve had to dumb down my point so far for people to understand it that you now think it’s yours.

Good day.

What language did I use? I can’t see my comment since it was removed.

It’s both. Phenotyping sex is the common method of determining it because it’s really easy and it’s accurate enough in 99% of cases.

Sexing through genotyping is 100% accurate, but it’s time consuming, comparatively expensive, and only relevant in a tiny handful of cases.

Use a stupid meme to cover up your lack of point or even basic understanding without using a stupid meme to cover up your lack of point or even basic understanding.

We need to move to single payer healthcare and just eliminate the need for insurance companies.

The switch is basically just a smartphone without a SIM card.

Some kid took it out of the packaging so now it’s only worth $2.

Pfft. Chamberlain? The man couldn’t hit a 3 to save his life.

Yeah. The other option is be a Knicks fan so no one ever accuses you of being a bandwagon fan.

Decide whether you want to back Michael Jordan or LeBron James as the GOAT, and then only accept information that supports your stance and ridicule anyone with a differing opinions.

*It’s Jordan by the way

I was speaking figuratively when I said all babies are swaddled. You decided to chime in with an irrelevant AkShEwAlLy, so claiming I’m too ignorant to participate in the conversation is very much a case of the pot calling the kettle black. I accept you lack the capacity as a person to admit you were wrong and concede, so instead I bid you good day and hope that someday someone better than you will inspire you to become better yourself.

Explain to me how you saw a link covering literal and figurative language and still decided to ask such an ignorant question.

Is this some type of competition to see who can know the least about biology? Because you’re definitely acting like it’s a competition to know the least about biology. I think the walrus is still edging you out slightly. Maybe up your game a bit.

We do have a unique gender for everyone, we just don’t have words for each specific position on the spectrum because it’s so variable. That’s why we have umbrella terms like nonbinary or gender fluid.

Sex is binary. It is “enshrined in biology”. There are exactly two sexes. Female (x only) and male (x and y). The doctor classifies your phenotypic sex (what genitalia you have) at birth because it’s the same as your genotypic sex (whether you have a y chromosome) 99.99% (before you waste your time claiming it’s AkShEwAlLy 99.98%, Google hyperbole) of the time. You can be a genotype male and present as a phenotype female. Your sex in this case is male, but your doctor would have filled out your birth certificate as female.

You just do not have any idea what you are talking about about but seem unwilling to let that stop you. It’s that simple.

So not at birth then?

Since we’re just linking wikipedia articles that have nothing to do with the topic at hand.

You’re confusing sex and gender. Sex is a function of biology. It is binary. There are two sexes, and which sex you are is wholly determined by presence or absence of a y chromosome.

Gender is a social construct.

This is the entire reason that the term transgender is used now instead of transsexual.

Also, your whole analogy is shit. The concept of money didn’t spring into existence because people already had coins. The coins spring forth from the concept of money. By your logic, we only have genitals because society got together and decided that we should all have a sex.

That is the stupidest idea I have ever heard in my life, and Ive read several tweets from Donald Trump.

Society does not create sex. Society creates gender. Gender is a social construct. Sex is an expression of your sex chromosomes. The genitalia you have at birth weren’t decided upon arbitrarily by everyone in the room, they’re a direct consequence of whether you have or lack a y chromosome.

No, sex is a biological characteristic and the doctor is describing your phenotypic sex based on observable characteristics. This really isn’t that complicated. There are two* combinations of chromosomes that determine sex, so there are two sexes. This is basic biology and has absolutely fuckall to do with gender as a social construct.

* Really there are around a half dozen sex chromosome combinations because they occasionally get duplicated. Functionally there are two because all of the combinations except 1 have a y chromosome and are male
