So. Hi new people! Apparently, we're gonna talk about sex. Like physical sex! Because... there's some confusion. First, sex defined: We're talking physical sex here, not gender. Body parts, hormones, and genetics (and more). BLUF: BIOLOGICAL sex is a spectrum 1/
This misses the most fundamental difference between the sexes which, when a biologist finds a new species, allows her to distinguish between male & female: Which type of gamete does an individual produce? Large, immobile ones (eggs)? Or small, mobile ones (sperm, pollen)?

Thank you for your time professor!!! If a an individual with an XY chromosome produces an egg, a biologist would distinguish them as female?
