Not really, no.

Sex, scientifically, is determined by the kind of gametes an organism produces in sexual maturity. Males produce small sex cells, females produce large sex cells. There is no overlap among mammals (i.e. human sex is “binary”)

Gender is a concept made up by feminists with no consistent definition, use mainly to confuse.

What about humans who produce no gametes? Are they sexless?
Those usually still have most of the body features for producing certain gametes, they just aren't functioning.
Yes. For organisms that aren't capable of sexual reproduction, it doesn't make sense to talk about sex.
So if these humans were raised as men or women, we should stop calling them that and... Use non gendered pronouns like it or they?

Which restrooms should they use?

If you think gender is confusing, maybe you should consider that the problem is *you*?
