Male and female covers all cases in reality. The other genders are faddish nonsense.

  Regardless of how you see it, being correct 42.3% seems worse-than-chance, which is the worse kind of incorrect. > The other genders are faddish nonsense. Gender is a touchy subject. While there is a lot of room for disagreement, it is hard to deny that some people are born in a way that does not fall neatly into the traditional male and female categories. It's dismissive to talk about it as faddish nonsense. It does not help people to understand the world around us better. Instead, it reinforces simplistic thinking about a complicated world. https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001669.htm#:~:text=Intersex%20is%20a%20group%20of,for%20this%20condition%20is%20hermaphroditism https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/001669.htm#:~:text=Inte....

    Yes but intersex has nothing to do with unambiguously male or female people deciding to adopt an alternative gender that doesn't match their sex. One is a biological condition of sex development, the other is a social issue, largely caused by the idea that there are certain thoughts and behaviours that are inherently masculine or feminine. So for example, if you're a woman who doesn't "feel like a woman" (actually: at odds with cultural stereotypes of women) you might choose to identify as non-binary. Which is happening a lot more these days, amongst some populations - so I think this could reasonably be called a fad.
