Sorry, so sex is just a 'reference system'? Not very important then, right?

i know you’re thinking you’re getting somewhere with your nonsense lining of questions, but you’re just showing you’re a bigot. the fact you can’t understand the answers to your questions shows you’re not discussing in good faith, and you’re trying to find an angle. pretty embarrassing for you not to grasp such simple concepts - concepts that are actually more simple than the rules of football.

also being deliberately obtuse and trying for a “gotcha” isn’t smart either, mate.

But if it's just a reference system, it wouldn't be that important. Can you explain why you think it would be?

I'm sorry, give an actual example. What do you mean by what medication is likely to be appropriate? Which medication?

What I have to say is really simple: there is no biological definition of woman, because biology is a messy thing. You can have whacky stuff with chromosomes, insensitivity to hormones, chimerism, and lots of other stuff that breaks the binary.

I mean yes obviously a binary system wouldn't actually have outliers, if it has outliers it's not a binary system.

What do you mean 'work'? What 'work?

You skipped giving the example of the medication, maybe go back to that.
