If the binary is so natural why does it requite such rigid enforcement?

This quote from Samantha over at CDL got me thinking: Are there any other presumably natural processes than requires the kind of policing transphobes are engaging in these days? 

Hunger maybe? Nah. People seem, for the most part, to eat when they are hungry (and even when they are not). You do not have to force them to add more energy and nourishment to their bodies. Thirst? Nope. 

The strict gender binary has to be enforced because it is a cultural and not a natural phenomenon. Sure, there are eggs and sperm, “innies” and “outies”, but as far as gender identities go, they are not necessarily following these binaries. The same applies to gender expression and abilities and interests. 

This why so many do not live up to the sexual binary (being some shade of homosexual, bisexual or pansexual) and also why so many mix the masculine and the feminine  to their heart’s delight.

Men and women are not two separate species. We are one species, and we all share a wide palette of sex and gender colors.
