    If it just says ‘biological sex’ without defining it then I’m marking male, because anatomy and hormones are both a part of your biological sex 🤷‍♂️

      Anatomy and hormones you produce, yes. Injecting yourself with massive amounts of synthetic testosterone or estrogen isn’t part of your biological sex. Just mark whatever the hell you want, it’s a stupid survey. If you need it to validate yourself you have a lot bigger problems.
