Insisting on a "gender distinction" when biology itself doesn't do so is problematic to me.

We ought to have compassion and sympathy for anyone born in such a way. God is the author of life. He knows full well why some people are born genetically different than the majority of the population.
However, we should also realize that people born in such a way are rare exceptions to the rule, and therefore, shouldn't be rolled out as a legitimate reason for changing the rules.
