Fun fact, chromosomes aren't the whole story when it comes to the way a person's body develops and isn't a useful measure of what someone's gender is in any form. There are plenty of women that aren't trans with xy chromosomes and vice versa with men. See swyer and de la Chapelle syndromes for more information. There are all sorts of combinations of chromosomes someone can have and we aren't anywhere limited to just xx or xy.
