An analogy of the real reason behind most people's refusal to accept that sex is not binary:
The 1837 Act to create the requirement of sex being registered, as only either male or female, for all newborn babies was created by the C of E clergy representatives in the House of Lords, which was overwhelmingly Anglican, and dominated by C of E Bishops and Archbishops. Some RCs were allowed to sit, but few did.
The oath to the Christian doctrine prevented other religions from being represented.
And we now know that the C of E is old-fashioned and out of touch with reality, just as it was nearly 200 years ago.
Thus the designation of only two sexes is a socially constructed model based on C of E bishops and archbishops religious belief, nearly 200 years ago.
It was old-fashioned, outdated and out of touch with reality then, it's even more so today, given the advances in Medical Science over the last 200 years.
The C of E is so out of touch with todays society, it still refuses to allow same-sex marriages and still refuses to consider homosexuality as acceptable.
38% of UK's population have no religion, that's about 20,000,000 people, and rapidly rising. Yet they are still 'governed' by an outdated religious doctrine. https://commonslibrary.parliament.u...n, 46% of,for constituencies in Great Britain.
Of course, some believe its doctrine. and insist it should govern non-believers.

The House of Lords in 1837 was largely a bastion of the established church during a time of significant pressure for reform and increased secularization.

The Church of England (C of E) is widely perceived to be in a profound state of decline, characterized by falling attendance, an aging demographic, and a disconnect from modern British culture. While some urban areas see growth, many reports highlight a shrinking, "out-of-touch" institution grappling with cultural irrelevance and internal structural crises.
