gollark: Not all binary choices have even odds either way, and there are more than 2 anyway.
gollark: We don't have data on any, so I don't know what you're referring to there.
gollark: If you pick a random species on Earth the chance it has two sexes is not actually exactly 50%, see. Even if that was true, it would be ridiculous to just assume alien life would turn out exactly the same way.
gollark: - alien life does not have to match ours in any way- that isn't true for Earth life either
gollark: How can you possibly know that?
