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.

It is indeed a gotcha question because I have already answered that women have ENDOGENOUS, PRIMARY sex characteristics, and listed them. If you are unaware as to what the terms Endogenous and Primary mean, please pull out your dictionary.

I have also pointed out that the exception does not disprove the rule. Quit being disingenuous.

of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs

OP didn't say women have to, they said CAN

Perhaps OP should have been more precise, and said that female humans are identified by a cluster of some vague number of a certain set of endogenously-produced primary sex characteristics — including vagina, ovaries, womb, fallopian tubes, and XX chromosomes — all of this is sufficient for femaleness, though no particular characteristic is necessary or essential.

I remember hearing about a guy who had, like, six kids who turned out to have a uterus.

Again, usually sterile.

Your 'gotcha' questions are tedious.

I love how this is hosted on Imgur, so any Redditor who is browsing Imgur content absently can stumble across it.

Hermaphrodites/intersex are usually sterile, having disorders of sexual development. (The birth of one-legged humans ought not change humans being defined as bipedal.) Yes, there are some plants and lower-order animals that can change sex. (Ask a cannabis grower about male plants and hermaphrodites.) Again, it doesn't mean that a state of fixed-sex doesn't exist in higher plants & animals or that changing one's appearance can actually change one's sex.

Hormones of all kinds are 'interpreted' differently by the body depending upon gene encoding, which is different in men vs women. Testosterone is changed in female bodies to estradiol, a form of estrogen. Only excess amounts masculinize a female, and in fact, DHEA is the more masculinizing hormone. Excess amounts of masculinizing hormones have negative metabolic and reproductive side effects - high incidences of type 2 diabetes and PCOS. Meanwhile, hormones do not change a woman's sex, only her appearance.

Please keep in mind also that Sun_bear's definition of female is consistent across the animal and plant kingdoms. We don't know what gender Mendel's pea plants identified as, but we do know what sex they were.
