Yeah, and basic physics says there are only 3 dimensions while advanced physics says there may be up to 11

    I hate that my first instinct against that argument is to cite a fallacy, but the idea that biology says anything about gender is begging the question so hard. If you’re trying to deny the existence of non-binary people using biology, you’ve got to argue that sex and gender are the same thing or that intersex people don’t exist which is significantly harder. So saying that biology’s literature on sex is inherently the same as gender and trying to use that to justify yourself is so circular. And of course like you said that’s assuming that biology actually says that which it doesn’t. I also understand it’s not worth even engaging with or debunking but fuck it’s so nonsensical

      99% of intersex people fall comfortably into either male or female. Very little actually falls inbetween. Beyond that very few trans people are actually intersex either.

      Non binary is so anti gatekeeping that every single human that has ever existed can accurately identify as non-binary. All you have to do to be NB is believe that you don't 100% fit into strict gender roles. That's it. Literally everyone can do that. Its a meaningless label. Saying you identify as non binary tells someone absolutely nothing about you except that you think people who identify as men/women actually fit neatly into those gender roles.

      Most people think sex and gender are the same thing because they are treated as synonyms by all of our laws. Plus progressivism from the 90s until the 2010s made defining gender as anything other than your sex, sexist. Like saying being a man/women is about how you dress or act is extremely sexist to the vast majority of the population.
