I love the idea of there being two sexes, don't you?

Summary

This quote, "I love the idea of there being two sexes, don't you?" implies a positive attitude towards the traditional binary concept of gender, where there are only two distinct sexes: male and female. It suggests an appreciation or possibly a preference for this simplistic understanding of gender, without acknowledging the complexities and variations that exist in human beings' identity and experience of gender. This perspective may overlook the existence of non-binary, intersex, and gender diverse individuals, limiting the understanding and acceptance of diverse gender expressions.
