I really don't remember, it was a long time ago on r/gendercritical, sorry. As far as I'm aware that's an assessment used by doctors/scientists to sort out between useful biological categories. I don't believe it's philosophical in nature, beyond the social recognition of appearance being more relevant than genes. I'd recommend looking into Alice Dreger's work on intersex individuals.
