Anyone who denies the biological basis for the distinction between men and women has no credible claim to “science” nor to “rational thought”.
If you're going to make these claims at least get the terms right. The biological distinctions are male and female. You continue to confuse biology with social ideas of gender. Here's a little of what they teach about the distinction at Yale School of Medicine.
What Do We Mean By Sex and Gender?
The IOM, now embedded within the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM), concluded there was more than sufficient evidence that, beyond reproductive biology, there were major differences in the biology of women and men that greatly affected their health and influenced treatment and prevention strategies.
Importantly, the committee emphasized that neither the health of women nor men is simply a product of biology but is also influenced by sociocultural and psychological experience. To differentiate between these broad areas of investigation, the members created working definitions of “sex” — when referring to biology — and “gender” — when referring to self-representation influenced by social, cultural, and personal experience.
Your inability to understand the distinction is your own. It's just inevitable that a certain percentage of any given society will remain ignorant either willfully or from lack of mental acuity.A crucial parameter of language is that the meaning of each word is standardized, so that when one person uses a word, another can understand what is meant by that word.
I understand them just fine as do the educators at Yale and the students who graduate from their medical school. What's your excuse?When you try to twist a word, to use it to mean something that no sane person understands it to mean, then you are undermining the very purpose of language, and demonstrating that it is you who does not understand language.
Calling Yale educators insane is hilarious especially as I imagine you doing it from your double wide trailer.Every sane English-speaking human being understands the word “man” to refer to an adult human being who is biologically male, and “woman” to refer to an adult human who is biologically female. Your confusion over the meanings of these words, and the underlying reality that they are used by sane people to communicate, only goes to show that there is something very, very, very wrong with you.
No sane person according to you but nearly every professional and Ivy league institution. I think I'm in good company.No sane person suffers from the confusion that you do, over the distinction between men and women. Such confusion is prima facie proof that there is something seriously messed-up in your head.
