I mean I get Gender and biological sex are different? But....
Obviously there are two biological sexes. Everyone's either a biological male or a biological female (or hermaphrodite, I suppose), but that does not mean your gender has to be identical to your biological sex. As has been stated they're =/=

I disagree. Some people do not feel that they belong to the binary conception of gender that dominates much of the modern world, and denying them the possibility of accurately expressing their identity is harmful.

How do you "Live between" Genders?

That's not what I meant by Un-needed. They have several Things you can choose that mean THE EXACT SAME THING.
What's the point of that. You don't need 5 Gender Options that mean the same thing......

How do you "Live between" Genders?
It's not particularly difficult really. You just embrace traits commonly associated with other genders, without actually labelling yourself as any of them, because you see yourself as having an identity that doesn't actually meet the criteria to be called a "man" or a "woman".
For instance, a person who combines both traditionally manly and womanly mannerisms and clothing, and creates a style of their own.

They were probably thinking that it's better to be redundant than accidentally miss something. It's a good attitude to have, especially if you don't know much about non-binary gender identities.
Why do you care, anyway?
