    Ah, yeah we can’t really know. Sequential hermaphrodism in chordates however is sometimes used to argue that biological sex isn’t as stable of a construct as some prefer to act like it is, in a similar way to how intersex people are used to express how it isn’t as binary of a concept as culture would have you believe.

      I’m not sure you can really apply the biology of sea horses to humans, though.

      Like, just because some reptiles can regenerate tails doesn’t mean humans regenerating limbs is natural.

        Fair, but you also have to keep in mind that this isn’t any of the rigorous argumentation. This is symbols and discussions with grandma level argumentation.

          I have had some success with it. Doubt the guy changed his views, but he stopped using that argument.
