In what Trump's administration has branded a "common sense" order, the government will recognise only two sexes, ending all federal funding or recognition of gender identities.
Male and female are the only sexes; intersex is just a blanket term for various medical conditions that describe abnormal development of sex characteristics.
It’s natural and harmless to have any combination of male and female sexual characteristics, even if it’s uncommon. It’s only considered medical condition because we decided it was.
My friend has a uterus and gonads. I have red hair and blue eyes. Both are super uncommon and neither has caused us any trouble, that’s just how we’re made.
I’d argue that male and female are just names for the ends of the spectrum.
And some of them are not obviously male or female from birth, but are given surgeries to force them into one or the other. Sometimes they get it wrong.

So you’re saying if you call a sex abnormal, it doesn’t exist?
