      Yeah but they decay into sometjing indistinguishable from a cis person in like five seconds outside of extremely exotic lab conditions, so it’s more accurate to say they’re possible than “they exist”.

        Funny.

        If we assume that the distribution is measuring some trait (e.g. “testosterone content,” “femininity,” measured however you will), and it’s bimodal (distribution is dominated by two binary sexes), then there will be people on either side of both peaks.

          Yes but beyond a elrelatively close range it does not remain stable outside of very expensive laboratory conditions. We have not yet found a way to achieve, for example, 16x standard hypermasculinity at room temperature without some very exotic blood chemistry i don’t entirely understand, except for the alcohol and testosterone numbers im not aure are survivable without lite support, and (i used to drink with a ucla researcher who was involved) he had to be restrained to keep him from building an exploding ramp to do what they all admitted would have been an extremely sick rocket assisted jump.
