@MarineBob technically speaking it’s 2 sexes. Gender is assigned, a construct if you will. Both sexes can and do have ‘male’ and ‘female’ traits. We can identify and present as any gender, but we can’t change our biological sex our xx and xy, obviously:

@Nitedoc interesting. What does the bible say about gender?
Nitedoc · 51-55, M
@Egg01 If you want to split hairs gender and sex are two different things. Almost all people identify their gender by their sex at birth. If someone physically changes their sex they become a mutant because of this mutation. It doesn't change the fact that there are only two sexes, man and woman.

@Nitedoc I agree and know that you can’t change your biological sex, hence that’s why I said it. Gender reassignment surgery is not an attempt to change sex and I imagine that most people know that and most people will agree with us on biological sex. I appreciate that it seems that I’m splitting hairs but I just like accuracy, despite what most people say. I drive people nuts with it but there you go 😆

@Nitedoc I try to be respectful in my use of words and wouldn’t use the term mutant, even though it is accurate. I feel that It’s just not helpful or kind, but I have no issue with you using it in our conversation.
