it's silly. A you can determine if a pair of animals are of the same species if the male and female of the population in question can create grandchildren via their offspring. You can determine any monkey wrenches thrown into that process (what if they're not male and female we're talking about, or what if we're talking about atypical members of a population) by going to the typical members of the population.

"the sex" refers to reproductive design and there are two and only two in our species. When they try to abstract sex into something other than reproduction, be it ladybrain, or that video of two dudes running around like they were auditioning for Prostitutes #3 and #4 in an 80s slasher flick, and then run with their "gender" bs (which is a social construct especially as they use it) then what can you do? They wallow in their own feces and expect you to join in? No. Exceptions do not invalidate definitions.

If their non-definitions work for them the would not need to convince people to use their non-definitions. Reproductive potential and capacity of the anatomy, no genes or anything else is needed. When it comes to the exceptions, let them define them. Male and female is pretty easy to define, and any exceptions do not alter that.

Also, stop interacting with idiots. No one on twitter is a real person anyway. The exceptions do not disprove that rule either.
