Legislators have not proven themselves to hold a particularly large amount of common sense. You said it yourself; he is a man. It is that simple. Yes he has xx chromosomes but that is an error in his genetic code. He is a man with an error in his genetic code.


So there are 9 distinct and discrete different chromosomal patterns. Fine. But there are two sexes and only two. Anything else is extremely rare and just an example of an anomaly not of a new sex. There are also generally two genders. People can claim to be an additional gender but it is just their claim that supports it.



If there are only 9 different genetic patterns that lends more support to the idea that there is not a continuum but either 9 different sexes or two different sexes with a few abnormalities. If there were an equal distribution of the nine patterns and there were nine different genders to go along with them I would be inclined to say that there were 9 sexes. But they are not equally distributed. The evidence indicates that they are abnormalities and not examples of the normal human condition. Furthermore, I am not aware of any correlation between the claims people make about their perceptions of their own gender and the 9 genetic patterns. In fact your example above of the man who appeared to be a man and functioned as a man but had xx is a counter example.
