Hehe
Betteridge's law of headlines.
So no.
Yes, sex is a social construct in terms of that it's just a thing that is assigned and a label that has been assigned to people based on what it's assumed their bodily makeup.
Doctors and others don't exactly do karyotype or other genetic testing at birth, they look at the genitals and usually apply one of two boxes to you and unless you look into it that label follows you around the rest of your life. Often, if you don't fit into those boxes they try to make you.
It isn't helpful nor accurate, because bodies are not the same. This is what we mean when we say sex is a social construct, it's just a label, a shortcut through language meant to imply homogeneity forgoing accuracy and meaning, and it doesn't mean anything because it's not specific enough to.
Sex is a social construct in all the ways gender is, because as stated it's just a label that gets assigned to you. What with HRT, surgery etc most, if not all biological characteristics of a body can be changed and this makes the distinction useless. Especially because people are so hung up on what bodies look like and what their functions are supposed to be, yes this is partially to do with gender but it also speaks to 'sex' too.
Even scientists understand this now and though I don't necessarily agree nor disagree with this, they call sex a bimodal distribution, not a distinct binary any more.
But regardless of what it's called or how many 'sexes' are recognised, it's still a social construct because it's taking a bunch of characteristics and applying labels to it. That's it.
Patriarchy, toxic masculinity, misogyny and ego, men don't want to be beat by women or other genders.
Say it with me now: Sex is a social construct.
A 'convenient' fitting into boxes usually two, but accurately not always.
The problem with such a system is that it's limiting and not at all useful in trying to help people.
We should be specific in what we are trying to say, because the miasma of a sex binary isn't useful, even in medical fields as it conditions doctors to think in very limiting ways and not actually help accurately.
It also has many roots in patriarchal violence in determining what a person (though to them a body) is for.
It's also problematic in a racist sense because of the colonialist white 'western' ideas of what makes a certain sex or gender often don't fit those who aren't in those categories (except colonised).
Which is why the 'science' is very problematic in this regard because that is the bias/lens with which it looks at this specific 'field' through.
Remember the rule of headlines, if it's a question it can be answered with a no.
There was supposed to be goldfish, but I'm not sure what happened to it.
Glad he had someone looking out for him.
Why would I want to read some crusty old dude that is outdated?
Political theory has moved on since Marx yet people still cling to him like a religion (like a cult).
Well, the web shouldn't be human. But if they were to attempt to make it then LLMs would not be the way.
