    Is it to do with differing (ahem) agenders?
    Call me old fashioned, but for me se.x=gender = male or female. Period.
    In such framework the pay gap is easily explained.
    Next?!

      XXY is not a SEX; it is a medical condition.

        XX is Female (the default) and presence of Y be it XY, XXY XXYY etc is "male" from a genetic level

          Your sex is what you are born with, it's in your DNA and all the surgery in the world will not change it.

          Your gender is what you identify as. Generally it's still binary; just may not be the same as your sex.

          Your sexuality is on a sliding scale from 100% homosexual to 100% heterosexual with a huge variety / flexibility.

          There are medical conditions, such as hermaphroditism, where a person is born with both sets of genitalia and a different DNA profile. They will tend to undergo surgery / hormone treatments to 'normalise' them and that's fraught with danger because it seems that the parents get this wrong because doctors pressurise them into putting their baby through surgery while they're too young to know what they identify as.

              Usual caveats...

              This last part isn't strictly correct. 'Hermaphroditism' is no longer used to describe people with Differences in Sexual Development (DSD) conditions. No-one is born with two sets of genitalia, but the genitalia can be ambiguous at birth which leads to a prolonged investigation by medical professionals before a determination of a baby's sex can be made.

              As far as I am aware, no-one gets it wrong.

              Rapid onset gender dysphoria (ROGD) is a thing and has been shown to be more closely associated with social contagion than humans "being born in the wrong body" which is manifestly junk science.

                      Yes, and no surprise, most of the aggressive ones are trans-women (ie. sex=male) who attack women and not men.
