    Chromosomes absolutely determine sex characteristics for most people, there are many many exceptions, but none that really apply to trans folk.

    It still applies to trans people. They don’t get to ignore science. For the large majority of the population, you are XX and XY. It’s just the way it works in biology.

    That is blatant transphobia.

    No, that is his opinion. I don’t agree with him, as I clearly stated, but it is not transphobia. Even if it was, that is protected speech under the law. It isn’t illegal to be transphobic. According to the article, this was never discussed in the classroom.

    Tell me friend, how often do you swab your friends and grab a petri dish to check their chromosomes before dressing mister or misses?

    You can just tell by looking or listening. Hasn’t failed me in 50 years.
