What is truly funny in this exchange is Jared referring to evolution by natural selection and then saying of course there are more than two sexes. OK, great, what are they?

The existence of intersex people is actually an argument <for> the sex binary, because if there was a third or fourth or fifth kind of gamete they'd show characteristics of those other imaginary sexes- but they don't, of course, they only show characteristics of male or female.
It's like, man, did you people not take high school biology? Or 6th grade sex ed?
