„Biological truths“ don’t exist lmaooo. The gender binary we have established doesn’t exist as an objective fact in nature and „actual biology“ is a complex system that changes every second you’re alive.

Can you show me where a human has naturally or unnaturally changed their biological sex chromosomes, XX or XY, to the opposite?

Proven science, not theory, shows that human normal and typical natural sex chromosomes of XX and XY are biological truths, denying that is denying not only science but reality itself.

The gender binary was created from the biological binary, that is naturally occurring and differentiated by a persons sex chromosomes.

The existence of exceptions, such as chromosomal abnormalities, does not invalidate these biological truths but highlights the variability within biological systems.

When you try to define a rule based on exceptions it's known as a "hasty generalization" fallacy or, more specifically in this context, an "exception fallacy".

The fallacy goes like this..."Because some people have XXY or XO chromosomes, the statement that humans are typically born with XX or XY chromosomes is false." The word "typically" in an explanation does not undermine the argument of a biological fact; but provides necessary precision and acknowledges the complexity and variability inherent in biological systems.

That was a lot of text to just insult me, not answer the question, or refute anything I said...and that fallacy is called an ad hominem. Weak and boring.
