Billnye has turned to the darkside

here's an idea i discussed. You're not actually discussing or debating anything at all

first sentence of the article you linked says that hijra are transgender women
it's like us calling sliced fried and salted potatoes french fries while the british call them chips; just because india has a specific term for transgender women doesn't make them a third gender

Why not? Etymology's pretty fluid. If enough people started using words to mean the same thing, it will just mean that thing.

but you see, he says that there are only two genders because there are because he says there are
don't try to contradict him though or you're just appealing to authority

I don't ever recall Kearn making an ice-cream-to-loveuality brown townogy animation. It takes some bonafide social ignorance to think that was in the ballpark of "Appealing" or "Tasteful"

I'm assuming he's calling him handicapped because he thinks the entire concept being explained was wrong, not because he explained it in a dumb way.

Why didn't you ask him to clarify before making a sleight against him?

Because I know his position already. If you can find me proof that he thinks gender =/= love then color me surprised.

The indian government recognizes Hijra as a 3rd gender, which proves that gender is a social construct. If it wasn't a social construct, India wouldn't have three officially recognized genders

In the United Nations and WHO, about 63 genders are recognized. The fact that people even recognize genders in the first place shows that it's society and individuals that construct the genders, not biology. Saying 'more than 2 genders doesn't exist' is just blatant denial since society already recognizes more than 2 genders.
