No. It's not a "genetic defect/abnormality." As I wrote earlier, it's just a difference and there are thousands of these in humans - eye color, hair color, hair texture, height, finger length, nail shape, personality etc. These differences are dictated by genetics, in utero exposures (hormones, temperature, etc.), and childhood and adult exposures. You seem to be struggling with a limited knowledge of genetics and biology in this discussion.
Why does it have to be a "defect/abnormality"? Less that 2% of the world's population have green eyes, is that a "defect/abnormality"?
Because nobody is asking for special treatment, different from the status quo applicable to 99.8% of the population, because of eye color, hair color, finger length, whatever, which is what they are asking for here. They are asking for treatment above and beyond what the other 99.8% of the population receives (the right to choose their bathroom preference different from their sex, which nobody else has) because of that difference. So from a legal standpoint, they need to legitimize that the difference actually exists in order to gain the special treatment.
And, no offense, I'm pretty sure I have a better understanding of genetic defects, and their effects on day to day activity, than 99% of this board does.
