        I'm saying that biology is biology, and "categories" are things made by humans.

        Studies say 1 in 1000. Not very often but I don't see a problem with a third gender for babies, nothing changes for the rest of us. It just helps those families who are affected.

        What is the DNA? Genetic testing makes clear what visibly is confusing in these rare births, there are only males & females genetically.

        This is not true. There are more sexual expressions than XX and XY - and the field of study has expanded significantly.https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/q-a-mixed-sex-biology/ …

        The human race will succumb to the mass insanity pushed by the Left and enforced by their cohorts on the courts. Reason will soon be outlawed as intolerant.
