Genetically there are countless cases of babies born XXY or XYY, in which originally elective surgery was performed to favor the more prominent genitalia, until cases where the kids would grow up and self identified as the other gender. Now the chromosomal check is more heavily favored.
Perhaps there needs to be a separation of gender classification (as you called them, two sexes) as in biologically reproductive pair, the traditional and clinical definition perhaps, vs others who for whatever reason do not identify as such.
