I was assigned a sex at birth, not born with one. Based on genital appearance alone at birth it would be prudent to assume my chromosomal sex and endocrinological sex might be classified as male as well by a medical provider. However that might not be the case at all. What is sex though really?

That's a version of sex from Bean's Velocci's The history of sex research: Is “sex” a useful category?
