One of the original supporting data sources was a myth of the Ainu people containing a woman who hunted.

If you want biased and unscientific sources keep digging into their claims.

I refuted this article when it was published based on their incredibly biased and cherry picked data sources which were entirely baseless.

I wish more people were willing to apply critical thinking and analysis to such claims. All falsified claims are a setback and detriment to humankind’s comprehension of the universe.

I didn’t say sex was a spectrum

It helps if you read and comprehend the comment chain to understand what is being discussed before you jump in with ‘I didn’t say that’ when I never claimed you did.

I don’t see why it’s so hard for you to actually read the comment chain. It is right there. You can re-read it at any time.

I think I was fairly clear, it is a binary system that has some rare exceptions.

Saying sex is a binary is saying there are only males and only females.

In healthy examples of mammals where development has occurred normally this is true.

This whole ‘its a spectrum’ argument is like saying humans aren’t bipedal, there’s a spectrum because some people are born without legs! It doesn’t make any sense.

That doesn’t mean that society should refuse to accept, include and support people born without the ability to walk.

their existence proves that sex isn’t just a binary.

This argument has always struck me as odd as in virtually every other discussion we would accept that the exception ‘proves the rule’.

Humans have two hands, except when they don’t due to something impacting fetal development.

Humans have two kidneys, except when they don’t due to an error in fetal development or as a result of disease or injury.

There’s diversity to sex that requires a more complicated scheme to account for everybody.

Or just let the exceptions be exceptions with no social stigma rather than refusing to recognise that the vast majority of humans, and mammals, can be accurately identified as one of two distinct sexes.
