People with intersex disorders still have a definitive medical sex, albeit there are obviously other complications concerning what medicines will or won't kill you in cases where the disorder drastically affects your endocrinology. There's no "somewhere in between", there isn't some magical incremental slider between male and female.

You should see the view from in here.

It also used to be "definitive(ly) medical" to do cupping, bleeding, and other strange things at one point, so I think that phrase doesn't necessarily equate to objective reality. I probably won't change your mind, and that's okay, but maybe "definite medical" is a little fuzzy and there's room to maneuver.
