I think the argument would then become, what’s the point of identifying a gender besides anything more than has a penis and has a vagina. It’s a construct because the identification is kind of pointless for non-science and sometimes sex related reasons. Which is why there’s more of a push to remove he/she and just make it they. I think.

Ya, that's what I'm confused about, I just don't really understand the point of the concept and why it's considered a whole separate category from sex.

The concept of gender in general, more specifically, the idea of being non-binary or gender being a spectrum.

Yeah I agree. It’s an unfortunate middle ground of a country split between only wanting “normal” gender terms and wanting them gone entirely.
