Recognising reality is not a threat to anyone, nor is it discriminatory. The judgement recognises the reality of biological sex. Then, people can identify however they wish to identify and we should all respect that.

The author of that article is a graphics designer. Listen to actual scientists. A tiny number of people are intersex etc but laws are not made according to extremely rare exceptions. As for AIS, it means a biological male might present with female genitalia. It can't be the other way around.
HE TELLS HER by Wendy Cope He tells her that the earth is flat - He knows the facts, and that is that. In altercations fierce and long She tries her best to prove him wrong. But he has learned to argue well. He calls her arguments unsound And often asks her not to yell. She cannot win. He stands his ground. The planet goes on being round.

My spring bath. Didn't enjoy it. Wet.
A long time ago I was in Rome with my parents. We were eating at a hotel because local restaurants were strike-bound. In the lobby a guest sat down at the grand and played. I went up to him and said, You're awfully good." He asked if I knew who he was. I said No. it was Demis Roussos.
