There are only two genders(in humans), attempt to disprove something that's already been proven, attempting to prove that there are more two genders or sexes is like trying to prove that the earth is a dinosaur.
https://en.wikipedia.org... https://en.wikipedia.org... https://en.wikipedia.org... Conclusion: There are more than two sexes because there are more than 2 combinations of sex chromosomes, even in humans. |

LOL! Do you know what Wikipedia is? Wikipedia is a website in which allows others to edit articles, using wikipedia as a "valid source" which invalidates your point. Anyways, look up the definition of sex. I'm going to use a valid source sex
/sɛks/
noun
1.
the sum of the characteristics that distinguish organisms on the basisof their reproductive function
2.
either of the two categories, male or female, into which organismsare placed on this basis
3.
short for sexual intercourse
sex
seks/
noun
verb
source: looking up "sex definiton" on Google. Conclusion: Don't use Wikipedia as a "valid source" when infact it's not. I'm not going to bother even clicking on those links because they ALL come from the same invalid source.
https://ghr.nlm.nih.gov... https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov... https://www.genome.gov... http://kidshealth.org... They call people with this syndrome male, but the sex chromosomes are not XY. |

The reason why they characterized these people as male is because they have a penis(obviously.) Males are affected because males aren't supposed to have enhanced sized boobs, they are supposed to be flat. I don't know how that proves that there are more than 2 sexes, Anyways, look up the definition of sex and tell me what it means, don't use Wikipedia or you can look at the definitions I provided in the second argument.
https://www.urbandictionary.com... "A group of many conditions that cause people to be born in the middle of the spectrum from male to female..." https://medlineplus.gov... "Intersex is a group of conditions where there is a discrepancy between the external genitals and the internal genitals (the testes and ovaries)." http://www.isna.org... "'Intersex' is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn"t seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male." All of these are valid sources that imply, if not state, that there is a spectrum between male and female, more than 2 genders. |

Reasons for voting decision: RFD in comments

6 points to Con (Conduct, Arguments, Sources). Reasons for voting decision: I'm with Pro on the topic; there are only 2 genders: male and female. Genetic mutations that cause ambiguity between the 2 do not add genders, they just make it ambiguous due to deformity. Con's conduct was more mature. Con simply restated his stance by quoting the dictionary instead of providing an argument that supports the definition. All sources used by both sides were reliable, in my view, and Con provided many more than Pro.
[*Reason for removal*] (1) Conduct is insufficiently explained. The voter is required to do more than simply state that one side was "more mature." The debater in question must have been outright insulting, forfeited a round, or broken the debate rules. (2) Arguments are insufficiently explained. The voter only states their personal agreement with Pro, states that Con failed to argue, and then awards arguments to Con. That doesn"t make sense. (3) Sources are insufficiently explained. The voter cannot simply award points based on quantity of sources " the voter must compare their quality as well, and assess specific sources in the process.
