    Only if you’re trying to say they didn’t have a gender identity yet as fetuses. That’s why it’s a meme and obviously a joke. Otherwise it makes an interesting point about how silly it is for cis people to base gender on body parts.

    correction: 8 days later, I am editing to state I have since learned biological sex is actually undifferentiated in the first weeks of a pregnancy. This is NOT the same as being intersex, but I think an intersex individual would probably have the best perspective to weigh in on whether the joke in the meme still makes sense, due to overlap in the issues it raises. To my knowledge, I am not intersex, so I’ll shut up now.
