Never pick up the phone for numbers you don't recognize. They use the fact that you picked up as evidence that calling you more often might be productive.

Anyone worth talking to will leave a message.

The population of New Hampshire is currently around ~1.389 million. 0.5% to 1.7% of 1.389 million people is 6,945 to 23,613 people. If the bill does not explicitly define "sex," then it leaves those people ambiguous under the law, meaning the law is open to interpretation by whoever is using it at the moment. While the numbers may work out to be statistically insignificant, those numbers are derived from actual people with actual lives. Do they not deserve to be accounted for?

I have lived in Gorham for the last 25 years. There are other places like Coos Family Dental on Main St in Berlin that I use who are excellent and have sliding fee plans adjusted to income. Been using them for years. They’re awesome. By the way Gorham was just rated the best town in New Hampshire and I wholeheartedly agree especially when the hoards of entitled miserable rude Massachusetts people aren’t here.

Dude, XX and XY are the norm, sure there are exceptions, however, are rare (0.5%-1.7%), so considering most individuals, sex is binary. And for the population of humans, sex is strongly bimodal: most people, no matter whether you define sex using chromosomes or morphology or gamete structure, fit into the classes of either “male” or “female.” You still need two different gamete’s to reproduce.
