      It’s certainly not the most important factor, and not relevant for the majority of social interaction, but it is meaningful to a lot of people. Some people want to have kids, and adoption can be a lenghty and costly process. Some people wish they could have kids naturally. Some people are terrified of accidentally producing kids and sometimes take permanent measures to avoid this. I’m in that third camp.

      I never ascribed morality or affirmation of gender to it. Just pointing out that calling it meaningless is short-sighted.
