Exactly, for example just look at real cases of people born intersex and try and plot out which of them are ‘more’ or ‘less’ male. [Human] sex isn’t binary and it isn’t an orderable continuum. It’s a complex result of reality and a simple binary model just isn’t realistic.
There are only two genders…
Except for: <giant list of genetic, epigenetic, developmental, etc… things that happen with human beings>.
Not to mention all the other things that happen with other living things

Yeah, and so are red-heads, Karen. In fact, red-heads are rarer than intersex people. Are red-heads not worthy of basic respect and dignity?
i mean historically the answer seems to be that they aren’t worthy of basic respect and dignity, no
I’ll add that anatomical variance is in the introduction chapter of any decent anatomy and physiology book.
Have you met many?

Also, why are we so obsessed with sex and gender? They want us to be distracted by this bullshit.
Wake up and realise the Class Consciousness!
except it’s not even a continuum it’s more like a fucking pick and mix bag

I think sexual insecurity plays a role. The trans hate is repackaged homophobia. Gay panic used to be a legal defence for example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_panic_defense
Gay panic is still a legal defence in many parts of the world
You’re kind of missing the point.
Everyone knows there are more than 2 genders. It’s an easily falsifiable statement.
It’s an incendiary statement designed to foment division.
I’m making fun of them by pointing out how they’re wrong
Yes
Yes
Actually no, not everyone knows. You’d be surprised how people are ignorant to these matters (by choice, or repressive environment)
Would be better expressed as
