would it be cool to tell eg native Americans their 'two spirit people' are not really two spirit people and should be treated like 'normal' people based on their genitals?,
-they shouldn't be treated as normal?
or to tell all the other cultures that would accept more than two genders that they're just too primitive?
Its notable that your emphasis is not the actual facts of biology but whether those facts will hurt or offend someone's feelings or some cultures beliefs. The problem is quite the opposite. Its not that we have new science based laws being passed to reinforce perceptions of binary gender but that we have the promotion of new laws such as the Scottish Governments GRA which will legally force us to accept other peoples "beliefs" in directly contradiction to the science.
