Topic	Dear transgender activists: please post how sex is not determined by chromosomes

Research suggests, however, that in a few births per thousand some individuals will be born with a single sex chromosome (45X or 45Y) (sex monosomies) and some with three or more sex chromosomes (47XXX, 47XYY or 47XXY, etc.) (sex polysomies). In addition, some males are born 46XX due to the translocation of a tiny section of the sex determining region of the Y chromosome. Similarly some females are also born 46XY due to mutations in the Y chromosome. Clearly, there are not only females who are XX and males who are XY, but rather, there is a range of chromosome complements, hormone balances, and phenotypic variations that determine sex. Does any of this result in any kind of complications like genetic illnesses or sterility? The majority of them do. Kleinfelters is XXY and those men are shorter, less intelligent, and sterile. XYY are taller, with no noticeable defects. <cite>BestOfTheBest posted [p:911163251] in Dear trans...
