That's not how sexes work. Humans are not mushrooms; we don't have six different gamete types. There are two sexes that produce two kinds of functioning gametes, and then a very small percentage of people born with trisomy disorders or other congenital defects that affect their reproductive systems.

We don't say "Humans have two different limb phenotypes" because some people are born without arms.

This is all completely separate from how we define gender in society and how we should treat trans people (or intersex people, for that matter). Please get off my side and stop making it look like it doesn't understand science.
