Gender activists push to bar anthropologists from identifying human remains as ‘male’ or ‘female’

[Curried Goats]

Science says your a god damn fool. Stop talking about science. You clearly dont understand it.

No it doesn't. Stop pretending like you understand it, or could argue it.

Not only are gender and biological sex separate things, biological sex isn't even binary. There are intersexed individuals with multiple X or Y chromosomes who are born with varying degrees of both male and female sex organs.

Fake news for dumbshits.

Science has become a small minority of over-educated elitists who determine what is factual, in order to control the majority of the population. It's more of a cult, actually.

That sounds like the sort of paranoid shit a kool-aid drinking conspiracy theorist would say.

Back in actual reality the ability of people from all walks of life (different ethnicites, sex and economic status) to study and practice science has expanded. It used to be an endeavor only those with means could enjoy, not so today. As with most things, you have your history and reality, ass backwards.

Everytime these people say something I think "Jesus this has to be the bottom of the barrel" then they say something else that shows it isn't.

I wonder at what point they will run out of shit to say about human gender before they move on to "don't call your cat and dog a he or her because you don't know how they feel and you could be psychologically damaging your pet. You need to ask your pets what they identify as".

No one is forcing you to do anything Booty. You are free to call people whatever you like. What you aren't free to do is demand a warm response for your general asshatery. You know who recognizes the difference between biological sex and gender? Doctors and biologists, the professionals who actually do this thing for a living. No one cares if trailer park trash make excuses for being shitting to people for no reason, the rest of the world carries on without you. Doctors and biologists continue to do the work that expands our knowledge of sex and gender and you ignorant twats keep getting left behind, socially and intellectually.

If a Biologist is confused about gender then that is one stupid sonofabitch.

That biologist might be one stupid sonofabitch, but the Supreme Court is always hiring.

Gender disphoria is a psychological issue, thus why it is the psychiatric community that issues opinions on the subject. People suffering from a gender disorder(yes, it was renamed to dysphoria fairly recently as not to offend people) should not be condemed for it, just like those suffering from anorexia shouldn’t be condemned, however, it is the equavaliant of malpractice IMO to tell a person with gender dysphoria/disorder that they don’t have a problem and that it is completely normal. If that is the case, why do they have a diagnosis for it at all?

Today’s “scientific research” closely follows the funding. You haven’t figured this out yet?

Uhuh

 

[Care4all]

If it was just one person saying this kind of shit, you would have a point, but that isnt the case. Every day you lefties create new rules about gender and its ******* annoying.

It's not even a blip on the MS media news.....

Maybe it's your right wing media, blowing things out of proportion for their own political purpose of getting you angry???

So it's you who disagrees with the doctors.

Your insinuation of impropriety is just that, an insinuation. You don't question them when they treat anorexics but you question them when they treat transgendered people because of your bigotry towards them.

 

[Curried Goats]

Uhuh

Too advanced for you? Should we start at elementary school level biology?

Ah, the old "that shit you see us do all day every single day isnt actually happening" technique. Brilliant move!

You misunderstood. Gender and sex are two different things. This student is wrong because anthropologists determine biological sex, not gender.

Somewhere in the cosmic ether, Orwell is having a big belly laugh.

Biological sex is determined by your genes and so it doesn't matter how they may have identified.

"How they identified" is a mental disorder.

"How they identified" is a mental disorder.

No it isn't.

Transgender people will now be diagnosed with "gender dysphoria," which means emotional stress related to gender identity."Gender identity disorder" had been listed as a mental disorder since the third edition of the DSM more than 20 years ago.

You're citing old shit. Science doesn't remain static, it changes as we gather more information. What used to be thought of as a mental disorder now is being proven to have physiological properties.

“We’re trying to change the understanding of gender,” says psychiatrist Murat Altinay, MD. “That’s one of my big goals. The main question I’m asking is, ‘Where is the gender?’”

We know that as an embryo forms, the genitalia specializes into either male or female. But what about development in the brain?

“The brain and the body can go in different directions,” Dr. Altinay says. “Gender is not only in our genitalia; there’s something in the brain that determines gender.”

“The male and female brain have structural differences,” he says. Men and women tend to have different volumes in certain areas of the brain.

“When we look at the transgender brain, we see that the brain resembles the gender that the person identifies as,” Dr. Altinay says. For example, a person who is born with a penis but ends up identifying as a female often actually has some of the structural characteristics of a “female” brain.

What doctors are describing now as gender dysphoria isn't a mental disorder, it's the emotional stress people born with these physical difference have to deal with.

IOW, they're mentally ill....Delusional....And freaks like you want all the sane people to affirm their delusions.

Go piss up a rope.

That's actually the opposite of what the doctors and scientists say. You keep being afraid of knowledge.

Then those "doctors and scientists" are ******* quacks.....Gender dysphoria is a mental disorder....Period.
