Not entirely true as there are times of the year where couples are more sexually active, for example valentine's day, Christmas, New years, etc.

You don’t understand probabilities then. If all factors are equal, then sure, but human interactions are cyclical, resource dependent, and have extrinsic factors that cause fluctuations in birthing rates, thus creating an unequal distribution map. You’re wrong.

If I point to any person on the planet, statically the chance of it being their birthday is 1/365. That is how that works.

No, it is not. Not even close. If you are in the US, the month that has the most birthdays is August, which then skews the likelihood of drawing a specific date. Dude, pay attention in maths.

Show me I'm mathematically wrong then.

If nothing else, there is 1/365 it is your birthday today.
