View submission: Do non-binary identities reenforce gender stereotypes?
Every society has gender, and that includes a variety of non patriarchal ones. Gender as a political class is only a subsection of gender as a social construct.
Sex is a biological observation that we also make about other species. Noticing sexual dimorphism is not inherently a reinforcement of any societal structure

It is dishonest to claim that the category of sex is merely an observation that is not reified in ordinary language and practices.
If it's just an observation, why is it on our passports and almost all of our IDs?
We have sex markers on our passports and IDs because the government wants to remain ready and capable to give males and females different legal rights and obligations, if it wants to.
