Waiting for the end of the world 3, transgender arguments

This will be the shortest of the posts in this series. I say everything I care to say in one paragraph.

One issue that seems to be getting a lot of oxygen is the question of transgender rights. I said pretty much everything I have to say about this topic last year on the Patio: here, here, here, here, and here. I thought that on the whole my opinions were pretty easy-going. On the other hand I think it is incontrovertibly true that there are only two biological sexes (if you leave out a vanishingly small number of exceptions). That statement alone, to say nothing of my queasiness around surgery, seems to mark my opinions as troglodytic.
