Thoughts on my Gender Binary speech?

In class we are writing speeches and I have chosen the topic of gender binary. Could you read my speech and give some critique?

I pasted my speech on wattpad bcause there was no other way of posting it here without exceeding the word limit.

Also, if you don't mind, can you think of any questions that spring to mind from this speech. ?

Thank you for reading & answering :)

    You need to pay more attention in biology class. You talk about "birth gender" as if having a pen*s or a vag*na makes you male or female. On the contrary, someone has male parts because someone IS male and female parts because one IS female. Your sex was determined at the moment of conception. You are male or female in every single cell of your body (except for RBCs which do not have DNA). If you have XY sex chromosomes you ARE a male and if XX you ARE a female. We are a sexually dimorphic species. It has nothing to do with viewpoints.

    What a beautiful, stirring speech. Hopefully one day we will all realise that gender is utterly fluid and reject these harmful stereotypes of "men" and "women" and cast off our shackles of sex and become ROBOTS!
