There are two human sexes. Carrying a child in a uterus is not a social construct.

  I think you gave a great example of how it's fuzzy at the boundaries, because infertile women are still women. I'm not saying this whole gender thing is made up, any alien would notice gender if they landed in central park, just that you can't get too metaphysical about it.

    Your example illustrates the point perfectly, though. Infertility in someone who is of childbearing age is a problem. A bug, not a feature. Intersex conditions are similar. They don't diminish that person's dignity as a human, but the condition is unfortunate and anomalous.
