Evolution is all about variety, sea horses for example are the ones who give birth, and there are even other species of fish that do literally change gender. In humans we are learning more and more that the brain is the core of body regulation and as such is a range not an absolute.
A little personal story for me. I really feel like I would have made a better female, no, I am not talking about wanting to be one, but more along the lines that my genes fall more along the sensitive side and my brain was not as dominated by testosterone. But you also have females who like being females but are tomboys too.
Our plumbing is only one attribute of our evolution, but is is a range and a range that is regulated by the brain and makes us just as diverse as it does in any other aspect of our species even outside birth gender. Our gender is not the script religions want to sell.
