Your mother was a woman. I could say this to any one of the 7.8 billion people on earth and it would always be true, without exception. It is not unreasonable to have a word to describe these 3.9 billion human beings, or for them to organise socially or politically on this basis https://twitter.com/andrewdoyle_com/status/1320131194265231362">https://twitter.com/andrewdoy...
Both of your parents were birthed by a woman. And their parents. And their parents, and their parents stretching back for 200k years without a single exception. Sex is an insanely robust categorisation system and is why we even exist as a species
It is INSANE that we are even having this stupid argument. Humans are sexually dimorphic, we are mammals, we are animals. You can& #39;t just make make up some bullshit and pretend it replaces reality. If you do, it is entirely reasonable for people to point out you& #39;re an idiot
Yes, some people are unhappy or even totally miserable about their sex. We should show compassion & try to help. It doesn& #39;t follow that we should pretend sex doesn& #39;t exist or change words about sex based reality that 99.9% of people intuitively understand
This is so fucking dumb it is embarrassing at the species level. 2020 would be slightly more bearable if, as a sexually dimorphic species, we could stop arguing about whether we& #39;re a sexually dimorphic species. Please can we just stop?
