im a comp sci major, fyi, biology relies on our understanding of boolean logic BECAUSE genetics is expressed in a binary fashion

-
these words are typed up on a computer and represented in binary but there are more than two words, just like more than two genders

-
also have a BSc in compsci FWIW but it didn't make me transphobic

-
boolean numbers are infinite, just like there are infinite numbers in base 10, I'm sure you knew that though right?

-
now think about what that means... you can use boolean values to represent gender (sure why not?) but there are infinite numbers/values...
-
by your logic I think we could thus (rightly) infer there are infinite genders. This is fine and shouldn't upset you. The thing is there are
-
infinite genders but of course you don't need Boolean or any number theory to know that. So it's kind of beside the point. But since you
-
mentioned Boolean values... I thought it might be good to clarify that there are infinite binary numbers.

-
And when I say rightly infer I mean it's the right answer (∞ genders) but it really doesn't require invoking number theory to know it.
