It's definitely not a lujvo; I made the word with latro'= ;a. I should
know to which class it belongs.
I hope that anyone who's looked at this word has also looked at the
notes, which should have led the reader to read the lojban definition
as well, because the lojban definition is much clearer as to what
exactly should go in each place. {jbepibnafei} is a zi'evla based of the rafsi for jbena, plibu, nakni, and fetsi and is intended to be
used to talk about *biological sex* as in "the apparent genitalia
(hence plibu) at time of birth (hence jbena)".

Honestly, I think {j= beplibu to se smuni lodu'u ko'a jbena fi'o plibu ko'e toi} = would've been enough. Also, including nakni and fetsi at least implicit= ly restricts it to (some combination of) two genders- that is, that while a= person can be, for example, XX, XY, X, XXY, XYY, etc., they can't be X= T, to make up a gender gene.

(Maybe {ko'a jbena zi&= #39;o zi'o zi'o fi'o plibu ko'e})
