Again, it’s not a gotcha question because it’s not a question.

What is your source for that definition of “woman” or “female”?

And why not change the definition so that there are no exceptions? “ the exception does not disprove the rule” and pointing to the sterility of some of them is just hand waving away intersex people. It’s a non sequiter.

Well, it's no question that you're wrong. Sources - go find a few college level biology books in your local used book store, you can read all about it.

Intersex conditions are disorders of sexual development and do not disprove that there are two sexes. It's not a non-sequitur (this means "does not follow" - I don't think you've used it correctly) or an absurdity, because disorders do exist.
