    No, I’m arguing that your rigid definition of gender (that no reputable biologist would agree with) is not the way the world works. Because gender and biological sex are different and have always been different and biological sex is far, far more complicated than XX and XY.

    This was your claim:

    Gender was traditionally identical to sex and this issue didn’t come up much till relatively recently.

    Unless by “traditionally,” you are going by an entirely Anglo/Eurocentric view of the world (and only really applies to the Christian era), which is pretty damn bigoted, I showed you that you were wrong.

    The proper thing to do would be to admit it.

    I doubt you will. But it’s either you were wrong or all of those other cultures are not part of humanity. Which would be very bigoted.
