    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 You can rage boner all you want about the qualifications of the person behind the keyboard, but words that are not peer reviewed are always just words.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.

      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.

              Sigh. I linked to a comment I had previously made, which links to the author of Sex Redefined (peer-reviewed paper) clarifying that there are two sexes, and quote her inline for easy reading.

              You’re right that I don’t link to the paper there, but it’s in the grandparent comment. Hit the “Show Context” button to get the link. Just so you can’t evade again, here’s the link:

              https://www.nature.com/articles/518288a

              That’s a peer-reviewed paper published in Nature by a PhD Developmental Biology. When asked to clarify, She directly stated that the papers claims there are two sexes.

              You have no excuse to not engage with it. Stop acting in bad faith.

              EDIT: You originally responded in the thread for my comment that linked directly to this peer reviewed paper, so you have no excuse. Stop your bullshit:
