There is still a difference between sperm and ova when some bees can breed via haploidisation.

I’m a beekeeper, I know how they work. How bees work has absolutely nothing to do with how humans do.

Sperm does not need to be the same amongst all living creatures for human spent to be vastly different to a human ova.

You may as well say roller coasters are roads because they both have vehicles move on them.

Roller coasters and roads aren't a good analogy.

"Sperm" and "egg", "male" and "female" are a thing because they are the only ones that can create a zygote. If it were the case that two "sperm" or two "eggs" can create a zygote too, then the so-called "differences" between an "egg" and "sperm" would be arbitrary and could easily exist between two "sperm" or two "eggs" because they can do the exact same thing as "sperm" and "egg" do.

Therefore there would be no "male" or "female" either, as the "differences" between them could easily exist between two "females" or two "males".

Lmao no. Sweetie just stop.

You are making a dogs breakfast of this and you just keep stirring it.

Show me the third gamete humans have right now. If your word salad of “sperm and eggs aren’t different because bees maybe used haploidisation” is anything but a pile of garbage you will be able to find the third gamete and a handful of pregnant natal men to prove it. There should be loads of women actively dropping spent from their ovaries right now so where are they? Should I start taking the pill so I don’t impregnate myself by accident? Or impregnate my partner since his sperm are identical to ova? Go fetch these people and while your at it, grab me the medical advice on preventing impregnating myself that absolutely must exist in a world where humans sperm and human ova are the same thing
