If someone is (for example demi-girl) they are BOTH female and demi-girl surely? So many of the options appear to be personality traits and nothing at all to do with actual gender.
Showed this to my partner and he said that before long, you won't be able to ask the sex of your baby...or to refer to it as a boy or a girl just incase in a few years it turns out that in their head they are not a boy or a girl. Might sound dramatic but this does seem to be the way things are going :S

When they get a scan in the womb ... is it a boy, girl or any of the other possible options, and the hospital is sued 18 years later for giving the wrong answer
