Reply to comment by 1carus_x in New Hampshire Trans Sanctuary Bill (plus two others) by 1carus_x

Dude, XX and XY are the norm, sure there are exceptions, however, are rare (0.5%-1.7%), so considering most individuals, sex is binary. And for the population of humans, sex is strongly bimodal: most people, no matter whether you define sex using chromosomes or morphology or gamete structure, fit into the classes of either “male” or “female.” You still need two different gamete’s to reproduce.

The population of New Hampshire is currently around ~1.389 million. 0.5% to 1.7% of 1.389 million people is 6,945 to 23,613 people. If the bill does not explicitly define "sex," then it leaves those people ambiguous under the law, meaning the law is open to interpretation by whoever is using it at the moment. While the numbers may work out to be statistically insignificant, those numbers are derived from actual people with actual lives. Do they not deserve to be accounted for?
