I don't care directly about chromosomes, they are put an extremely good proxy for one's reproductive abilities, hence an extremely good biological correlate for sex (i.e. reproductive role).
I care about fertility, because reproduction is more-or-less the single most important duty every human has. It is also difficult a space to navigage, therefore all indicators and heuristics that help me appreciate his/her sex efficiently, makes navigating this difficult space much easier, hence is a friendly gesture.
Here is an interesting question for you to ponder: Why do basic facts about human biology upset you so much, so much so in fact, that you use the act of procreation as an expletive?
