    What determines whether you "belong to the sex class that produces large gametes" ?

    Obviously this horrendous wording is a (poor) attempt at inclusivity of people that have bodies that don't produce large gametes, but are supposed to. But what other factors are determining their inclusion in this sex class if they don't produce large gametes? There must be something that is including these people, what is it?

        Macrospermia, yeah. Terrible medical condition, the sperm is basically a .50 cal bullet blowing clear through the egg. Big impact on fertility as you'd imagine.

          well it's only logical that it would impact fertility rates, after all women can't get women pregnant berdly-smug

          and good thing, too, can you imagine how huge a baby born from two Large Gametes would be? They'd be XBox huge... as a fetus!

      or now all intersex people who fit this are women, whether they like it or not

      that elderly grandfather in india who had a hysterectomy because he was having stomach pains and didnt even know he was intersex and had many grandchildren with his wife? woman. 100% woman.

      Presumably it also means women didn't exist before the invention of the microscope and those kooky ancients were using the word wrong
