Comment on Denying the Human Sex Binary Turns Biology into Nonsense

  I don’t care what discovery magazine says. It’s wrong.

  On what basis? Is that a fact or your opinion?

  Here’s the original source: www.sciencedirect.com/…/S1087184599911295?via=ihu…

  This is my field of expertise.

  Herpetology is my field, do you specifically study reproduction?

  Intersex is not another sex category as much as your want it to be.

  Why not?

  It’s a defect. Plain and simple.

  You couldn’t explain why it’s a defect. This is just your opinion.

  There are only two sexes in human biology. This isn’t a debate.

  Except for the thing you call a defect unjustifiably.

  This isn’t a debate. This is how it’s taught and it’s taught this way for a reason.

  Except it isn’t taught that way at higher levels, because things are often more complex than they are at the simple levels, for the same reason species is taught as things that can’t interbreed at the lower levels.

  Do you know the definition of a species?
