Stupid, scientifically illiterate and intentionally misleading.Why do these people always use intersex people as proof that sexual dimorphism is invalid? Most intersex people only have minor differences outside of the binary. It's like using the fact that people are sometimes without a leg as proof that humans aren't bipedal.
All sorts of crazy shit can happen whilst a baby is being developed from growing tails to having multiple functioning eyelids yet these do not change what we know to be the standard biology of humans.
The best explanation I have heard is this: sex is binary, but there is variation of secondary sexual characteristics within both males and females.
For this reason, "intersex" is a unhelpful misnomer which the trannys and freaks jump onto to bolster their case that sex isn't a thing or whatever. When really, noone is "intersex" in the sense they are in a category between the sex's, they have a specific sex but their secondary characteristics fall outside the norm. Secondary sexual characteristics are effectively anything that aren't gametes (sperm and eggs).
A legitimate point can be made that we should be accepting of people with these issues, imagine being born a woman and finding out you have receded testes that aren't visible. However, this is not a means to upend our understanding of sex - it just adds further detail to the potential for variation.
