What's the default sex of humans?

I read that if the SRY gene isn't present the fetus develops as female but now they're saying that if the FOXL2 gene isn't present the fetus develops as male.

Do we start out sexless?

Wrong. Like in op, they found a gene called Foxl2 that prevents female fetuses turning male.

There is no default sex.
The first cell of a human organism known as zygote already has sex, defined by the chromosome set in its nucleus, specifically the allosomes. Human emrbyo from the moment of fertilization starts out as male or female. Human sex is determined by chromosome set of a human spermatozoon at the moment of fertilization. And it seems that egg cell fuses with any suitable spermatozoon without "knowing" what sex chromosome the spermatozoon is carrying, so the sex of the zygote is pretty much random.

nothing you said refutes that females are the default.

Fetuses will develop as female if the SRY gene is not present but found another gene was found called forkhead box protein L2 (FOXL2). Foxl2 silences male genes in fetuses so they can develop as female and if it is disabled, the ovary will develop as testes in XX fetuses. Default sex isn't female retard.

Female-to-male transgenders are guaranteed to pass if they take testosterone, whereas male-to-female transgenders rarely pass if they take estradiol. Androgens are additive, but estrogens don't do that much in comparison.

Not him but we start out sexless in the womb but we're already male or female from fertilization. The penis and vagina are made from the same thing and the SRY gene and FOXL2 gene activates several weeks into development to cause differentiation. If the fetus has an XY chromosome, the SRY gene will silence female development and if it is not present the testes develop as ovaries, if the fetus has an XX chromosome the FOXL2 gene silences male development and if it isn't present the ovaries develop as testes.

A recent sci-show youtube video claims that biological sex is a spectrum. How does that fit with your theory?
