    Science doesn't back up 'Gender is a social construct'

    • science definitely backs up that gender isn't remotely as simple as binarymonospaced
    • You're gonna piss off the Bernie Bros and Hillary's around here... Lol love the "Souless Asian Android throwing out facts like candy"robotron3k
    • Where does science say it's much more than binary, Mono?Ianbolton
    • Yep, bold claim there Mono, do you have any links?Morning_star
    • I'm also interested in those links, mono pls. show us what u goooot!%sted
    • Mono Ocasio Cortez denies science again.Hayoth
    • soy boy has spoken.severian
    • pro tip: vice and vox are not scientific sources, monoGnash
    • and she talking about gender as a social construct, not as binary. that would be sexGnash
    • She contradicted herself in the first 60 seconds so I stopped watching.lowimpakt
    • Typical patriarchal response.Morning_star
    • https://www.realclea…imbecile
    • Nature doesn't care how you identify, only what you are physically capable of. Produce viable sperm, male. Produce viable eggs, female.imbecile
    • Funny to see so much time and emotion wasted on a problem that addresses .07% of the population.severian
    • My claim isn't remotely "bold." The fact there are some hermaphrodites, or people with different sexual variations, physically and otherwise, is obvious proof.monospaced
    • Mono, the issue of 'Intersex' people is addressed in the video. Intersex isn't a new gender it's both. That's it.Morning_star
    • Why does she allow herself to speak for "Science" and whom does she mean with it?mekk
    • Science is a process not a person.Morning_star
    • Pretty much zero substance here, terrible public speaker and clearly annoyed that her paper was so derided she had to leave academia. But I did get a semi.fadein11
    • #humourfadein11
    • I didn't watch the video, but yeah, intersex or whatever you called it ... it's "both" but often to varying degrees on a scale. Scientifically non-binary.monospaced
    • Some people are born one gender, but identify with another, on a biological level, not influenced by society. Science backs that up completely.monospaced
    • As someone who doesn't really care about this issue at all, it seems like both sides are talking past each other.yuekit
    • Is "gender" the same thing as biological sex or is a person's subjective view of their own identity? If you can't agree on the definition of such a basic term,yuekit
    • It amazes me how this has become such a big issue for some, it's so unimportant in the larger scheme of things. Why is it upsetting people so much?fadein11
    • then by all means prepare for a long pointless argument.yuekit
    • @fadein11 ...not particularly charitable. Have a read https://www.theglobe…Morning_star
    • Thank god your here Yuekit. I was worried.Morning_star
    • * you'reMorning_star
    • @morning, why is this an issue for you? genuine interest here, what is it that puts it on your radar?fadein11
    • It's not really an issue it's just a different perspective. I work with an trans person and she keeps sending me this stuff.Morning_star
    • why do you chime in on flat-earthers and excessive masturbation, fadein? what puts that on your radar? sanctimonious prickGnash
    • and Yuekit is correct about vague and construed definitions tanking any possible discussionGnash
    • why would a trans person be sending this to you? FFS, Tell them you dont care and shut off the megaphone.severian
    • Lol @gnash, I've never posted about flat earthers or "excessive masturbation". Come on now, smhfadein11
    • @Hayoth, I did not deny science, ffs.monospaced
    • @gnash I admit it I commented on the absurdity of the no fap and flat earth threads but never OP'd, shall we get back on topic?fadein11
    • @severian. Because it’s good to talk, engage and try to understand all perspectives. It broadens my sphere of influence and because of the myriad discussions...Morning_star
    • ...here on these type of subjects it felt relevant. As usual though most people are not seeing the wood for the trees.Morning_star
    • Lolfadein11
    • What Asian droid?pango
    • @fadein, why does excessive masturbation upset you so much? it's so unimportant in the larger scheme of things. Why such a big issue for you?Gnash
    • lol, it was a no fap thread, so quite the opposite, you're losing your edge pal ;)
      go have a wank or something ya?
      fadein11
    • and I commented on the absurdity of a thread on giving up wanking, sorry it offended you though, shall we get back on topic? I knew this subject would be closefadein11
    • to your heart though.fadein11
    • given that folks are losing their jobs for using the wrong pronoun... that 'men' are being locked up and raping women while in jail etc...PonyBoy
    • ... this is a conversation worth havingPonyBoy
    • https://www.thenatio…PonyBoy
    • Possibly yes, but this video adds nothing to the debatefadein11
    • https://www.youtube.…PonyBoy
    • I was on your topic, dickwad. I used your words verbatim right back at you.Gnash
    • your topic, of course, is always the same. a mealy-mouthed, pass-aggressive, comment that suggests the OP holds the wrong opinion...Gnash
    • ... of which opinion you looked up somewhere to make sure you had the right one before commentingGnash
    • so nothing to do with this topic. just your pedantic and predicable responses. "Oh well, bigger fish to fry!" moronGnash
    • Pls share your reading list like you do on nearly every comment you make on here. It's a non issue made big by the outrage crew, I have little concern for it anfadein11
    • d this video didn't teach me anything.fadein11
    • Wow #triggered much?fadein11
    • all you do is +1 someone else opinion, or disparage ones that have already been established - by your look-up table - to be the wrong oneGnash
    • your too pathetic to have your own opinion. you just follow along adding your, +1's and your, bigger fish to fry. #patheticGnash
    • Bad day?fadein11
    • My opinion was this video was poor, did you enjoy it?
      I didn't learn anything.
      fadein11
    • you add zero to any discussion, other than flitting in like a priggish little closet-moth to claim your moral high ground.Gnash
    • I didn't watch it. I also don't need to watch a video about the world being round.Gnash
    • Moral high ground? Not at all, just don't spend my life in a perpetual state of outrage over issues that really aren't that important to reasonable people.fadein11
    • Ha ha ha. ‘Reasonable people.’ You are at the zenith of that moral mountain.Morning_star
    • Good view up here, I chuckle every dayfadein11
    • You played yourself, moron.Gnash
    • of course you chuckle everyday, you drink from the sippy-cup of knowledge while staring out the window of the short-busGnash
    • too lazy to read through all this and the video. so where you guys at?pango
    • got one question tho. Does this all matter to you guys? are you all going to change your sex or change gender after this debate?pango
    • let me guess you all just going to live your life exactly the same and find something else to be pissed off over while arguing with internet people.pango
    • carry on.

    • Sounds like a lot of people are identifying as Susan in this thread.severian
    • who's Susan?pango
    • A bitch.severian
    • An outlier that exists somewhere between two endpoints is still defined according to binary attributescannonball1978
    • oh ok. cool.pango
    • pango—I answered your question before you asked it. Nobody is pissed that folks 'think' they're something else... just pissed we're 'forced' to acknowledge it.PonyBoy
    • Not saying your are pissed at the subject. Saying people are pissed at eachother while arguing. With all those name calling, I don't know what else to interpritpango
