    Sadly I think you missed this. Again, not undiscernable. Are you able to understand that?

    You should let the author of this text book know that his definition is complete crap lol:

    In sexually reproducing animals, there are two sexes, the male and the female. There may be different ways to express maleness or femaleness, as we will see, but the divide is a real one. […] We have already defined male and female based on gonads and on the type of gametes produced in those gonads, either eggs or sperm.

        In addition to the other links I’ve already posted to peer-reviewed papers explaining the same thing, yes, the fact that you can find the same definition in any textbook on biology shows that is a useful definition that’s used widely across the field of biology.

        You can’t cite anything to the contrary.

          Nobody needs to cite a damn thing. You’re not interested in science except where it suits you.

          You on the other hand, making attacking trans people your daily mission rather than getting on with your life?

          You will make a fascinating case study for a psychologist one day.

          Closeted cowardly little attack dog scared of your own shadow.

              Because it doesn’t fucking matter a rats ass in the context of people living their lives.

              You can’t leave it alone? You need to be right?

              Newsflash: You’re autistic too!

              Edit: I’m autistic myself and happy with it.

                  Science is investigative discipline, it is neither for/against.

                  You cherrypicking science is anti trans.

                  In the context of people living their lives and being as they are, science isn’t even relevant.

                  What’s decidedly unscientific though is coming into a room full of people called “Brian” while telling them that nobody is called “Brian” because you’re too much of a pussy to just face your own gender nonconformity.

                  The lady doth protest too much!

                    You’re again confusing sex and gender. I am merely stating a widely recognized scientific fact that the original meme is incorrect about.

                    I would love nothing more than for this entire thread to have not happened. The response to my original comment should have been “Yep, that’s true for sex, thanks for differentiating it from gender”

                    If you can’t handle the truth, that’s on you.
