Saying gender is binary is like saying there are only two types of apples, red and green.
There are two types of apples, red apples and non-red apples. D'ya see? Everything in the universe either is a banana or it is not, all is binary.
Quantum physics would like a word
Something is in a quantum superposition state or it isn't, absolute binariness.
Quantum physics doesn't exist, it is invented by physics professors to sell you more quants
just fyi that's kinda the worst comparison you can make: The whole point of quantum physics is that it revolves around quanta, discrete states with no continuum between them. Best case it implies that there are a lot of genders, but it still implies each gender is its own distinct thing completely different from the other ones.
