Anyone following the debate might reasonably be expected to have read the defences offered by academic philosopher @byrne_a Is Sex Socially Constructed? https://arcdigital.media/is-sex-socially-constructed-81cf3ef79f07 and Are Women Adult Human Females? https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11098-019-01408-8 1/ https://twitter.com/EricRoyalLybeck/status/1346807641906028544
Or the excellent five paper discussion David Pilgrim initiated in the Journal of Critical Realism https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14767430.2018.1493842
Or one of the first academic philosophers to venture into this territory who suffered serious harassment for doing so @boodleoops https://aeon.co/essays/the-idea-that-gender-is-a-spectrum-is-a-new-gender-prison

There are just too many on human biology, sport, and the medical treatment of GNC children to start. But if you had been following this debate you would know that in academia, as everywhere, the majority position is that humans have 2 sexes, and that sex matters. 5/5
