No one is arguing for disrespect of anyone so there's not much else to say about your argument, other than you might try showing more respect to those you disagree with in future.

You think you aren't, but you are when you say the categories of "male, female and 3rd sex" are appropriate for simplifying the "absurdities". You should show people who fit in your "absurd" minority sexual categories with more respect in future.

Whether or not they are absurdities is obviously a contention, and hence, whether or not they are being disrespected.

It's not contentious that you should show people you're in discussion with respect, nor that you have not shown said respect.

Please don't do tit-for-tat flamewars like this on HN. The further they get to the right of the page, the nastier and more repetitive they get, and curiosity has been lost long ago.

You guys have been going at it in other subthreads too. That's not what this site is for. In the future, please take a step back and refrain.
