Most mammals, including humans, have an XY sex-determination system: the Y chromosome carries factors responsible for triggering male development. In the absence of a Y chromosome, the fetus will undergo female development. This is because of the presence of the sex-determining region of the Y chromosome, also known as the SRY gene. [5]
It should be acknowledged that the notion of using "Xe" has been proposed before as one of many Gender-specific and gender-neutral pronouns but with different details. But so long as these schemes remain out of widespread use, we should feel free to reinvent them, and especially, to invent them with an eye toward delivering additional desirable ...

[4] Some neopronouns allude to they/them, such as "ey/em", a form of Spivak pronoun. [5] A survey by The Trevor Project in 2020 found that 4% of the LGBT youth surveyed used ...

In humans, the presence of the Y chromosome is responsible for triggering male development; in the absence of the Y chromosome, the fetus will undergo female development. In most species with XY sex determination, an organism must have at least one X chromosome in order to survive. [2] [3]

Sexual differentiation is the process of development of the sex differences between males and females from an undifferentiated zygote. [1] [2] Sex determination is often distinct from sex differentiation; sex determination is the designation for the development stage towards either male or female, while sex differentiation is the pathway towards the development of the phenotype.
