That's the funny thing, "women" and "men" are terms that have been made up to define social behavior and interactions. If someone feels like a woman then they are a woman, that's how gender works. Of course gender is very closely related to the concept of biological sex but they aren't the same thing. Ask an actual biologist; there is much more to biological sex than just "XX or XY."
Again, I understand that we like to think of things in a binary. We like to have clear yes-or-no answers; it makes us feel safe and secure. But that just isn't how the real world works. Look at our job—you'd think it would be easy enough, right? "Here's the book of rules, here's what you did in this situation, did you break a rule or was it legal." You know how good controllers are at turning that into a gray area a mile wide. Take that and apply it to a human full of cells and DNA and hormones, and put the human in world with eight billion other humans. Clear binaries just don't exist.
Someone's weight can be measured and compared against a standard. Someone's chromosomes can also be objectively measured, though as I said there are more options than XX and XY. But gender is not the same as chromosomes; you can't measure gender. You can only ask someone how they feel, and look at how they behave, and compare that to other people in society.
Not that I expect you to accept my logic but you asked and that's my answer.
