    We’re talking about both. Gender was traditionally identical to sex and this issue didn’t come up much till relatively recently. Outliers, like people born with both sets of organs, were just that. To be consistent with this philosophy, race must also now be done as “whoever identifies as such”. After all, it’s just as much of a societal construct.









  • But this is a biological thing. It’s a medical condition. It’s not your gender if you were born with both sets of organs. The point of equality was to get rid of laws being selectively applied. By your philosophy, race also works similarly. Someone who is latino is whoever says they’re latino.
