 Some say sex is based on the gametes someone produces. However, there's people who do not produce them.
-Thus, sex is not binary, and there isn't a way to group people into "man" and "woman".
+The counter-argument is that that someone should be male or female, based on what their body "should do".
+Bodies are not teleological however, are aren't "meant" to produce female or male gametes. They just are. There are people who produce both gametes too.
+Thus, sex is not binary, and there isn't a way to group people into "man" and "woman".

+This is unrelated to addressing a person's preferred gender and name.
+If you run the argument backwards to as "not allow", then you can run into a bad conclusion too.
+While the argument is valid form, it's not sound.
