23k sexes that’s fascinating, so I looked it up:
They have two sex genes, named A and B, each of these have have an allele (alternate form) called alpha and beta. So combined there are 4 unique spots in the gene to look at.
A-alpha, A-beta, B-alpha, and B-beta.
Each of these can have variations, with A-beta having 32 and the rest 9.
32 x 9 x 9 x 9 = 23328 unique sexes
So describing your sex would look something like
A-alpha-1, A-beta-8, B-alpha-3, B-beta-5.

Easy just have a drop-down menu for each value that can change 😎
Stick it into a boolean
sex = true

If you could edit out my sex description from your comment, I’d really appreciate it, thanks.
Are you an aA-beta-8?

And no Omega males
I was guessing it was “23k sexes found so far” but this makes sense.
Then throw gender into the mix if they had such a concept. Essentially incalculable.
Fascinating, thank you for expanding on this!
