Agustin Fuentes on Why Sex is a Spectrum | KQED

We discuss why many of the assumptions about male and female differences are more cultural than biological, and what intersex earthworms and fish that switch sexes can teach us about gender and sex.

binary sex (conditioning your partner to associate 0 and 1 with sexual stimulation)

If anyone hasn't seen this video of a TED talk by Emily Quinn on intersex issues and how sex is a spectrum, we highly recommend it

As far as we know we're not intersex ourselves, but as a non-binary trans woman, we will fight for our intersex siblings' rights ✊

The way we think about biological sex is wrong | Emily Quinn

YouTube

I'm beginning to wonder if I've been asking myself a question the wrong way round.

I've been asking myself: "Am I non-binary?"  

I'm thinking that maybe I should be asking myself: "Am I binary?"

I already realise that sex/gender are a spectrum.

So is it even really possible for me to be a binary trans fem if the very concept of a sex/gender binary is demonstrably false???
