- kaba0 4y agoWell, there are more than two sexes, XX, XY, XXY, XXX, plus several other chromosome variants. So your primary school-level biology argument falls apart quickly. But if you would have paid any attention to.. well, anything you would have known that it is not about sex, but gender, which usually correlates, but not always.
- biologythowaway 4y agoIf I recall correctly, the more formal definition, would be too say that all who do not have a Y chromosome are female, everyone else is male. Note that no human has ever survived with less then 1 X chromosome. The real interesting part begins with people who possess more then 1 set of genes, split between there body. The it become a more philosophical question.
- kaba0 4y agoWhat if they do in fact have a Y chromosome, but their body fails to respond to it? Then they will grow up as if they were females. Also, due to chimerism (I guess that’s what you are getting at with your last two sentences) even genetic sex-determination is only probabilistic — they try to find several Y chromosomes to identify someone’s sex as male.
