Many people recognize that gender – how a person identifies, presents themselves and is perceived – has nuances. Some people identify and present as women, others as men, and still others as nonbinary.

But there is a common misconception that biological sex – usually determined by a person’s sex chromosomes, gonads (ovaries or testes) or genitals – is binary. This idea assumes that everyone is biologically either female or male, with no ambiguity or intermediacy.

where is the line that makes it disturbing?

"If they look like a female fuck-toy that makes my peeny go brrr but they aren't really a female fuck-toy but a human with man parts, then it makes me uncomfortable and it's their fault. They're lying to me about their fuckability which is how I grade women, but if their fuckability challenges my heterosexuality it's because they're a disgusting abomination and I'm just a normal person."
