This topic has always confused me lol.

Wouldn't saying "sex is a spectrum" imply that there is some sort of third sex that exists?

"Spectrum" is totally not the word they want. Even the rainbow pride flag does not show a spectrum. It shows discrete bands of color. An actual spectrum has one color blend slowly into another. You can't draw a straight line where the red becomes orange. It's gradual.

If sex were a "spectrum," you'd have a person with one female breast, a partial vulva, one poorly formed testicle, etc. like they were slowly morphing. With the exception of medical conditions, we have two very distinct sexes. And they know that.

No, it's much more than that my friend.

Did you notice that the chart didn't only include three sexes (male, female and "hermaphrodite") but multiple ones? This is because they literally believe in he existence of multiple degrees of male and female, with each one constituting a separate sex.

In terms of reproductive biology, this is bullshit because it would turn the process of reproduction into a big convoluted mess. Think about it: each degree of female would be able to only bear children with their male equivalents and they only, with the same being valid for the males.
