Although we all bemoan deliberate media silliness, it can be useful in revealing the parrots. When the overlords push a narrative that is ridiculous, it is not done without purpose. Is a religion a religion if it does not ask the believers to believe the unbelievable?
The overlords always present one more challenge to common sense. For the minions, the inanity du jour provides an opportunity to profess and confirm their commitment to Whateveryousayism. For the richly-paid high priests of Whateveryousayism, the scripted foppery provides an opportunity to display their loyalty to the Cult. Heresy will never be tolerated.
If the legion of interchangeable talking heads insists on gender spectra and concepts like male and female present a Rubik's Cube of mental toil, let them continue to ponder and puzzle. In the meantime, we can trust the science. Even before high school biology, and high school health class, we learned that every member of every multicell animal species on Earth could be divided into one of two categories: Those who possess a Y chromosome and those who lack a Y chromosome. It could not be simpler.
A blob of protoplasm (perSON is not gender neutral) born with a Y chromosome will have a Y chromosome even after blob's genitals are surgically mutilated. Blob will have a Y chromosome regardless of blob's degree of estrogen-flooding. Once a Y, always a Y. Trust the science.
By the same token, a blob born without a Y chromosome, will go through life lacking a Y chromosome. No surgery, no hormone, no talk therapy, no support group, no magical thinking will ever change this concrete reality. More than we care to admit, biology is fate.
The luftmenschen can chatter away about what defines the integers on the gender continuum. We can speak truthfully and divide people as nature has already divided them:Y & Not-Y. XX & XY. Double X & Single X..
Of course, if we don't mind being archaic and unenlightened, and insensitive, we can refer the XY's as males and the XX's as females.
