Nope because again sex isn’t based on gametes or else people who can’t produce gametes don’t have a sex. In every species sex is a spectrum. Also even you would admit not every species that reproduces has discrete sex groups.

Nope male and female don’t objectively exist. Also that’s because half the stuff you say is stuff I’ve already answered but you refuse to accept.

What is this tosh? Sex isn't "a spectrum in every species" as you state. No one is saying that discrete sex occurs in every known species that reproduces. We're saying it exists in species that reproduce sexually.

Nor is anyone saying that "people who can't produce gametes don't have a sex." Prior to puberty, neither male or female humans can produce or mature and release viable gametes. After menopause, female humans don't have viable gametes. Males with infertility or who've lost their testes can't produce viable gametes. None of this changes our sex - which is defined as developing in utero to have the capacity at some point in time to produce either ova or sperm.

You say

male and female don’t objectively exist.

Wonder what your mum and dad and grandparents would say about this.

Hundreds of millions of women now on earth who've been pregnant, had abortions and miscarriages, carried pregnancies to term given birth, breastfed no longer have viable gametes. Yet by your definition we/they are not women.

You don’t know about plant speggs? Or echidna oovatazoa? So many more options than male and female hahahaha

Males and females are very good groups to separate, because males and females have different between groups but same withing their group a lot of things: skeletal structure, reproduction system, bone structure and density, lungs size (with same weigth and height), heart size, metabolism, oxigenization, reaction to pills, reaction to diseases, unique diseases affecting only one of sexes, muscle structure, ability to produce or sustain one kind of gametrs somewhere in life, ability to gave birth, and so on. All those things are very distinctly and strongly different between male and female groups, and at same time similar between all males and simikar between all females. And if we add social aspect - then added social ezperience is very different, like 200 millions of girls are killed in first few days or aborted in many parts of the world, as parents want boy, while transwomen are boys in womb - so not experjencing this. 98-100% of rapists are males, 85% of rape victims are females. And so on. In medicine, society, statistics and safeguarding it is very important to have this two very distinctly different groups. And it have no sense to grouop differently, as different kind of groups would not have so much in common within group and so much different between groups.

Sexism plain and simple

people who can’t produce gametes

Which people are these?

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Just what it says. People who are sterile

[–]SnowAssMan[S] 10 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 0 fun11 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

"sterile" meaning what exactly? Normally a man can be pronounced infertile even though he produces gametes. It's just that his sperm is "low quality". Are there men who don't produce gametes?
