OK, I'm biting...

How do we address that smaller group that don't identify with, or are
not 'standard', X-X or X-Y chromosomes and body chemistry??

Trans-gender or whatever they are.

A friend comes in this category, not hypothetical for me (or their
family, partner & children). And some interesting legal points. They
married opposite gender, then my friend underwent a spontaneous sex
change, so now its a same-sex couple, but they are both 'hetro' :-/

A little different to  Autrijus/Audrey of Perl 6 in Haskell (PUGS) fame,
but along similar lines.

Is the same-sex relationship between the same two individuals still a
legal marriage?? If not, when did it stop?

But this is not a forum where we'd normally care or discuss this issue.

We do care about what people do in our realm and answering/helping our
fellow journeyers. Happy to put this thread to bed :-)
