Sex is neither a spectrum nor an identity.

intersex people disagree, and i'm clearly talking about not identifying with the traits that society-at-large attributes to the sexes and not that you have a vagina but dont identify as having a vagina (which would also be valid but im not going to argue with you on this)

Not really. Each of these conditions can be understood and described in terms of male and/or female sex development. The "spectrum" rhetoric obfuscates detail.

> the traits that society-at-large attributes to the sexes

This is just sexist stereotyping though. Doesn't mean you're neither woman nor man if you don't adhere to these stereotypes. That's absurd.

The problem with "non-binary" is that it is inherently sexist in the worldview it describes.
