In your piece ‘Sex Redefined’ are you making the claim there are more than 2 sexes?
No, not at all. Two sexes, with a continuum of variation in anatomy/physiology.
Two papers demonstrating that you’re wrong, and both better than anything you’ve linked to. Note that I linked these already and you apparently didn’t bother reading them, but maybe try again? I’d love it for you if you tried learning.
I’m honestly not reading any more. You havent demonstrated real knowledge or ability to cite anything worthwhile, but have a far higher standard of evidence for everyone else. Again, you consider WordPress to be a real source.
I just cited two worthwhile papers (and also cited them at the start, you’ve had this whole time to read them, don’t give me any bullshit about reading more).
By wordpress, do you mean https://projectnettie.wordpress.com/? Jesus, are you really that dense? Did you not even bother to read one word from it? I’m citing the project spearheaded by someone with a PhD in Developmental Biology, collecting signatures from other scientists affirming a statement about the sex binary. You can go look at their credentials. Where the list is published is irrelevant, it’s the fact that a) the statement is clear about the sex binary, b) the project was started by an expert in the field, and c) it has many signatories with relevant credentials. Are you sure your degree isn’t just “i r smrt” written in crayon? I mean, come on.
Look, you’re a lost cause, but for anyone else curious:
Project Nettie is an online and regularly updated record of scientists, medics and those in related disciplines who, by signing their support for the Project Nettie statement (below), assert the material reality of biological sex and reject attempts to reframe it as a malleable social construct.
I guess I’ll go edit my previous comment to add that bit in. I didn’t think it was necessary, but, some people.
I don’t think you’re capable of engaging in good faith. For anyone that’s bothered to read down this far, feel free to ignore this user. The thread speaks for itself (“masses of articles” lol get the fuck outta here).
Lol. You keep replying dozens of times to people. You don’t have meaningfull contributions to the field. You think that blogs for some random Chicago emertis are reasonable sources. You constantly post opinions without a single definition to prove your point…
I think you are a sad child. Stop putting my science in your mouth.
Lol. You keep ignoring the papers I link you, then disparaging a well-respected biologist in the field by calling him a rando. If you don’t even know who Jerry Coyne is, you have no business bullshitting about the field of biology. He’s not the end-all-be-all but you’ve just displayed an amazing lack of knowledge about the field in general.
I’ll spell it out for you, since I fear you might have a learning disability: I’ve linked peer-reviewed papers. Read them and learn. I also cited Jerry Coyne writing on his blog about his field of expertise, as an example of an expert opinion on this matter. That’s a reasonable source for that purpose. I also cited a project led by a PhD developmental biology, collecting signatures from other scientists with relevant credentials. That it was published on wordpress is immaterial.
If your PhD is even real, you’re a perfect example of why they’re a mark of perseverance, not intelligence. I suggest you persevere at something more productive than wallowing in ignorance.
Truth is, you’ve already outed yourself. I eat lunch with a group of mixed biologists and I came into the conversation already knowing that reality (as is always the case) is much more complicated than you would say. I’ve heard this same conversation before by people who actually do research in the area. Not like mine–my research is rather trite compared to some of these dudes. They essentially publish in nature and the equivalent in their respective areas.
So, no, you are just a troll. To summarize:
You lack the credentials to make the assertions that you have.
You don’t seem to understand the hierarchy of trust that comes with certain positions.
You don’t seem to have any idea what sources are actually valid/quotable, nor the importance of peer review.
No, wordpress and other blogs still aren’t peer reviewed, so they are as much trash as a random ass reddit post. You can rage boner all you want about the qualifications of the person behind the keyboard, but words that are not peer reviewed are always just words.
You dismiss anyone else’s claims as immaterial because you seem to prefer a simple, comfortable world to reality.
If your PhD is even real, you’re a perfect example of why they’re a mark of perseverance, not intelligence.
I would agree 100%, but the difference is (once again) that as a holder of a PhD (albeit in a completely different area), I have the experience and authority to make that sort of claim. You are just some loser behind a keyboard.
But you go on and have a nice day. This was a laugh for a while but now it’s just boring watching some dude pissing in the wind.
I’m irrelevant. The science is what matters.
This article was peer reviewed and cites sources:
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-025-03348-3
Here’s another that people have linked to, thinking it supports their argument.
https://www.nature.com/articles/518288a
In fact, the author states:
Two papers demonstrating that you’re wrong, and both better than anything you’ve linked to. Note that I linked these already and you apparently didn’t bother reading them, but maybe try again? I’d love it for you if you tried learning.

Do you have real credentials?
Any more‽ You didn’t start!

I’m not reading that because I was looking for something worth reading. much earlier on.
You seem pissed, but not at all convincing.
You got things worth reading in my original comment. Stop bullshitting.
Lol. You keep replying dozens of times to people. You don’t have meaningfull contributions to the field. You think that blogs for some random Chicago emertis are reasonable sources. You constantly post opinions without a single definition to prove your point…

You’re once again refusing to engage with peer-reviewed sources. Stop bullshitting.
Ask your biologist friends to explain to you slowly why you’re wrong.
