I hear you saying: "Intersex people don't exist. Intersex people do exist." You might want to reflect on that self-contradiction.

- slumdev 5y ago1. Human beings have two arms and two legs. 2. Thalidomide caused some humans to develop without all four complete limbs. These people are still humans. Statements 1 and 2 aren't contradictory. 3. There are two human sexes. 4. Genetic anomalies cause some humans to develop without a complete set of the primary and secondary sexual characteristics of either sex. These people are still humans. Statements 3 and 4 aren't contradictory.
- Chris2048 5y ago"there are only 2 human genders" does not contradict "Intersex people don't exist" because such a condition doesn't constitute a biological gender. If it did, it wouldn't be called a "disorder". That said, we can just agree on what words mean, if if there are discrepancies, we can just label alternate definitions, to ensure they remain consistent. Which still brings us to the question: why aren't men allowed in women's bathrooms? If it's just the physical possession of a penis, this would still disqualify many trans-women.
