I was originally going to ask how many legal genders there should be, but I fail to see a compelling argument against 0.

      Intersex people don’t exist in statistically relevant numbers.

      Siamese twins also exist, and there are lots of legal issues with them as well as to whether they count as one or two people. Oftentimes they are considered both or neither depending on the specific legal issue that comes up.

      But we don’t base governmental policy on the existence of Siamese twins, we base it on the concept of singular individuals.
