Will Proposition 8 be enforced based on phenotypic gender or genetic gender? (county, state)

For example, say two people are getting married. One of them is a male with an X and a Y chromosome. The other is a person who has Androgen Insensitivity Disorder from birth -- born with female appearance and genitalia, but male chromosomes (XY).

To enforce the new California Constitution, should County Clerks inspect genitals or do DNA tests? The answer would determine, in many cases, who can marry whom.

I never thought about it like that... now to get married there is a possibility that we'll have to prove our gender... hellllllo police state! To answer your question though.. I have no idea... it's an interesting concept.

Oh just how many people like that are walking around.

If it is an XY genetic born male, and a "female appearing" XY (male) does that mean the "she/he" has primary and secondary sex characteristics?

They're gonna look like a female. Sound like a female.. and appear as a female, I'll bet they have female genitalia too. How many gay men want a female in their bed? Genetically male, but the curtains and carpet are all female.

You're really grasping at straws here.
