So let's logic this.

    Side A: There exist only two sexes, a BINARY male-female.

    Side B: Those who chose to identify outside of that must the be called NON-BINARY.

    This is logically consistent. To say there is a general binary and then say something that isn't within the 0/1 concept isn't non-binary is just fallacious and genuinely arguing in bad faith.
    If your logic is informed by misinformation, you're not being as logical as you claim to be. At best, you're presenting a biased opinion as a fact. At worst, you're just lying.

    I mean, even your position that there's only two sexes is not consistent with reality. For a rule like that to be an absolute, a law, for reality to abide by then reality has to actually abide by it in all cases.

    Which, considering Hikelos' argument stems from twitter threads as sources (lol). I feel like I'm being pretty reasonable.

    Where did I use a twitter thread as a source for anything? Quote it.
    If you're going to try to smear other people with such blatant lies, at the very least you need some measure of distance between the lie and source.

    This is an obviously untenable position. Exceptions are exceptions. Especially ones that cover 0.0006% of cases, such as the intersex cases you're alluding to. (Most of which don't quite like it when you use them as a cudgel and speak for them by the way)

    I'd point it out, but at the current moment I'm fairly convinced you don't know how to read.
