XY is essentially a mutation of XX. 'Males' were created by evolution as means to promote genetic diversity. All mammal fetuses are anatomically FEMALE until like 30% of the way into their gestation, they essentially mutate into the male form. Ovaries eventually mutate into testes, labia into scrotum, etc.

The idea that the 'male' form is in ANY WAY primary over the 'female' ... is ludicrous.

Of course she didn't. The language bit is somewhat interesting.
