There could, in fact, not be the category of trans if there was no gender binary. Without the moon, no cis- and translunar orbits. A boundary has to exist before it is possible to cross it or, indeed, stay within it.
That boundary is a quite bit fuzzy because gender is a bimodal distribution: Two bell curves which meet in the middle. But it clearly is there, those two humps clearly exist, they may apply to no individual but they apply, statistically, to the population as a whole, and as we're individuals and not statistics where shit gets stupid is when people are saying "you're on that side of the graph in aspect X, therefore you must be on the same side in aspect Y": It's trying to enforce a strict boundary when things are, well, fuzzy. Multi-dimensional, at the very least. There's women with beards and men who can give birth. There always have been, and if that scares you then you should learn to live and let live.
That's not even covering karyotypes, much less phenotypes. Read up on the actual biology before making BS claims like that.
Schizophyllum commune has over 20k sexes.
As to humans: You could have googled karyotype and understood that there's things like XXY, you could have googled phenotype and understood that you can have a XY karyotype and still a female phenotype.
This is all massively more complex and diverse than you think it is I've not even scratched the tip of the iceberg here.
