[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing to me is that we only know what we know. Science has deemed XX as female, and XY as male, but we do know that even genetically, there are many intersex states. [b]We don’t test people for their genetics unless there appears to be ambiguous genitalia or the like.[/b] We do know that hormone exposure in uterine can cause. We have no idea about if other genetic expressions can make a difference, because [b]pretty much the only thing we base sex on is genitalia.

Science is science only as long as it’s known. That’s the cool thing. It’s constantly evolving and changing, and thinking we know now what we will know is just ignorant at best. So the people using “but, science” as an argument that trans people just have something wrong in their heads don’t understand science at all, IMHO. The world was flat until it wasn’t. Pluto was a planet until it wasn’t. You got sick from a miasma, until we knew about germs.[/quote]

Not true. These days most women get routine genetic testing when they're pregnant, including to determine the chromosomal sex of the baby. [/quote]
