      I wish it were as easy as “I’m just trolling”, but Lemmy deserves better than lazy misinformation in their memes. I’m calling it out.

              What would convince you that you were wrong? What foundations are your world view built on that might need some re-examining?

                A consistent definition, in line with modern scientific consensus, which isn’t being shared by someone who decided the best time to tell people sex is strictly binary despite the evidence already presented in this thread is on a meme about atoms.

                It’s not the time or the place for this discussion, even if you weren’t full of shit. That you are is the icing on the cake.

                Go away. I’ll see you again next time you decide its your moral duty to call women men I’m sure.

                  Fortunately, someone else already posted a good response:

                  https://medium.com/@alysion42/letter-to-the-us-president-and-congress-on-the-scientific-understanding-of-sex-and-gender-992051a60318

                  Real biologists pointing out the scientific consensus:

                  Anisogamy is the definition of sex

                  and

                  In animals and plants, binary sex is universally defined by gamete type, even though sexes vary in how they are developmentally determined and phenotypically identified across taxa.

                  and

                  the Tri-societies were wrong to speak in our names and claim that there is a scientific consensus without even conducting a survey of society members to see if such a consensus exists. Distorting reality to comply with ideology and using a misleading claim of consensus to give a veneer of scientific authority to your statement does more harm than just misrepresenting our views: it also weakens public trust in science, which has declined rapidly in the last few years.

                  I mean, fuck’s sake. There’s nothing to argue about here. There’s just the fact that this is the scientific consensus. Why does Lemmy want so very hard to be so very wrong?

                    If you aren’t even literate enough to parse my reply why the fuck would I read your medium blog? I’m done.
