I’m sorry, it’s not clear to me who you’re talking about

Then we both get to be confused by each other's comments.

The article is talking about colorectal cancer and bladder cancer, y chromosome owners can get those cancers too whether or not they have female phenotype or not.

I was replying to a subject forked sub-thread, so what I said isn't directly applicable to the article.

So by your own argument, are men that are infertile not men, then? If so, then I believe we have quite the reckoning with how many people think they're men when they're not.

They're not complete men.
They're the whimper at the end of a 4,000,000,000 year long bloodline (I say blood). Our ability to replicate is and ever has been and will remain the primary guiding factor of our evolution.
The meek be damned, it's the fertile who shall inherit the earth.
They're socially female and in many ways physically female, but from a reproductive perspective (the reason for sexual dimorphism in the first place) they're not female.
They're males with transformative hormonal disorders.
Also, arguments regarding legitimate medical issues like this and CAIS are completely orthogonal to the ideological reason behind the caveat on the article.
