Three. Male, Female, and Hermaphrodite (both.) Transite doesn't
count because they're turned from one into the other, M-F or F-M.

We can't count midget, Bobbitted, transvestites on steroids, either.

Cracks in Southwest's planes sure adds a new meaning to their
advertising claim that "Bags fly free".

Funny how the educated media can always make a mountain out of a mole hill.
The Grand Canyon, the biggest crack found in the southwest plains, was one
doosey of a news day.

Reminds me of the ancient saying of Confucius: Women pilots who fly
upside down sure to have crackup.

Up here near the big city we got at least 5. Bi-female is now a sex
(gender). Not sure about Bi-Curious-Female. If it is, I'll need to Double
