Yeah I knew you'd start trying to worm your way out of what you asserted and find ways to argue that it does not apply. But I would like to remind you what actually said:

You didn't specify 'normal' male genitalia, or specifically testicles or whatever. All you said was male genitalia.
And I showed that you were wrong.
You're probably reading this and thinking that I am being obtuse or pedantic, but the fault comes with your ignorance about biology.
Chromosomes are nothing more than instructions. It can't be used to say that a person is a man or a woman any more than showing the recipe you followed means that your dumpling is actually a souffle. What matters is how well the recipe is followed and the end result. Fact is that the fetus does start off female in the womb and hormonal washes determine whether it further develops into a girl or develops into a boy, or something inbetween. The same cells either end up forming a female's clitoris or a male's penis for example. So with the example I showed, there is a mixture of male and female development.
Now if you want to argue that the bits that have developed as male for an intersex individual aren't the same as the bits on a 'normal' male, then you'll need to explain why and back that up with evidence along with references to how it compares with the full range of 'normal' male genitalia found in the population. This will of course also require you to set a specific boundary of when normal stops and starts along a continuum.
An enlarged clitoris and fused labia is not male genetalia, but ok. I'm not going to argue over semantics.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
