Comment on Dunning-Kruger
Uruanna@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoYou’re the only one here claiming that the PhD is equating gender and sex / genitalia. The PhD says no such thing. The person the PhD is responding to is the one trying to equate gender, sex, genitalia, chromosoms, reducing it to “there are only two sexes, male or female.” The PhD is telling that person that they are wrong, and chromosoms do not determine what comes out in the end. The PhD is correct an you are misreading them, and it has already been explained to you that the PhD is saying, verbatim, that chromosoms do not determine gender. If you think that contradicts the PhD, you are still misunderstanding and assuming that the one who’s wrong must be the PhD and certainly not you. But you really really want to say that the PhD is equating gender and sex, or that the explanation that was given to you is contradicting what the PhD is saying. At this point, you’re just trying to obfuscate what the PhD is claiming and what you are defending, and somehow the PhD is the one who’s wrong and as bad as anti-vaxxers.
Once again: the PhD is correct, you misunderstand what they said, someone explained to you what the PhD was saying, and that explanation is not contradicting what the PhD said. The PhD and the explanation are both correct and they are saying the same thing. You keep trying to pretend that you know better than the PhD and the PhD must be anti science somehow, instead of wondering if you’re not completely missing the entire discussion. The only way you are going is trying to devaluate science.

Oh i see your problem, you didn’t read the explanation
Uruanna@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
… And you still don’t understand it, and you assume that everyone else is wrong even after it was explained to you.

That there are men (xy) with female parts, do I was correct when I said that parts don’t define gender
So now that we’re on the same side, why are you arguing?

This is your misunderstanding right there. XY is not automatically a man. You are the one making the claim that chromosoms define if you are a man or a woman, and the PhD and the other guy are telling you that there are people born with XY who are cis women with female genitalia. You are wrong.
No, they are not. They are telling you that there are people born with XX but who have female genitalia and grow up to be cis women. No one told you that some XY people changed to XX. This does not happen. This is not what the PhD said, and this is not what the other guy explained to you. You are wrong.
