      It’s science denialism.

      It’s amazing to me that science defenders who grok evolution, understand concepts like genotype, phenotype, penetrance, and emergent properties of complex systems will, wrt sex insist, “No! There are always only two!” Sex, sexuality, gender, are complex phenotypic traits.

      Maybe it’s because I’m a doc and I’ve met intersex, trans, CAH, Turner, etc you realize people are just different. They’re not crazy or making stuff up. Given the complexity of human sexual behavior and development, polymorphism or polyphenism should be expected not denied.

      You are guilty of all the conflations I have said. You are muddling up various conditions, social labels and stereotypes, characteristics with sexes.

      I suspect you will be unable to say what a sex is. Or if you do, it will be hand waving.

      this is actually a good point but not for the reason you think.

      I’m sure the original handeaving in the bible was the right answer all along.

      I think andy thinks he's read everything on sex/gender and he's smarter than it all.

      He also sounds a lot like a fundamentalist Christian when he demonizes Drag Queen Story Hour, which he was doing the last time I encountered him.

          TERFs and some other associates transphobes might not themselves be right-wing evangelicals, but they’re ever-increasingly likely to jump in bed with them and amplify them unironically
