Wrong

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12476264/ Anne Fausto-Sterling s suggestion that the prevalence of intersex might be as high as 1.7% has attracted wide attention in both the scholarly press and the popular media. Many reviewers are not aware that this figure includes conditions which most clinicians do not recognize as intersex, such as Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and late-onset adrenal hyperplasia. If the term intersex is to retain any meaning, the term should be restricted to those conditions in which chromosomal sex is inconsistent with phenotypic sex, or in which the phenotype is not classifiable as either male or female. Applying this more precise definition, the true prevalence of intersex is seen to be about 0.018%, almost 100 times lower than Fausto-Sterling s estimate of 1.7%.

I mean you can be factually wrong if you want to, but it doesn't change the reality

Eta since my og was removed: Nothing on its own, as technically with transitioning trans people are their biological sex. By definition, it is based off several components: chromosomes, gonads, hormones, genitals, and secondary sex characteristics. With hrt and surgeries, they eventually fall into those categories. However, with the lack of description in the law it allows it to be interpreted by who ever is using it at the moment. It also further erases intersex people, who do not fall directly into male or female, are the ones actually receiving genital mutilations as young children

Where did you get 1.7%? You’re telling me almost 2 people out of 100 are intersex.

Edit: that number came from one person

OP replied well already but also just to state clearly, even if those things were uncommon abnormalities they should still be accounted for in the wording of the law to avoid any problems that ambiguity might cause. Laws shouldn’t be “pretty obvious” they should be crystal clear so certainly groups aren’t unfairly exempt, or worse so that the government doesn’t use that ambiguity to persecute whomever they see fit.

You must be on multiple lists. I usually just get one or two.

Have you put (all of) your phone numbers on the national do-not-call registry? It won't help with the foreign hacked calls showing up as a local number, but it might help with -some- of the spammers who aren't out-and-out criminals.

Biological man means that you have XY chromosome pairings, testes, a penis, and a prostate.

Biological woman means that you have XX chromosome pairings, ovaries, uterus, vulva, vagina, clitoris, etc.

To say that there’s “no such thing as a ‘biological man’” is just… not rooted in reality. Yes there is. Just as there are biological women. Chromosomes matter. Sex traits matter. Being a ‘man’ or a ‘woman’ is not a social category - it comes down to genetic expressions of physical characteristics. Your DNA, chromosome pairings, and genetic traits make up your physical vessel. That isn’t a ‘social construct’ or whatever you’d want to call it.

I’m not a “transphobic” person, either. I’ve met and got along with plenty of people who identify with being transgender. And you know why? Because they agree with what I’ve laid out.

People like you are so wrapped up in virtue signaling and so-called social justice that you have lost track of what the real world actually is. Best of luck to you out there. Crack open an anatomy book some time and maybe some books that explain puberty - you may learn something.

Great way to admit you only passed high school biology, actually, not even as I learned about the different types of sex in high school, and that someone half your age knows more abt the thing you act like you know anything abt.
Thanks for spending so much money on giving me rewards tho 💖
