    Ah yes, we all know that the english language emerged to describe biology and always conforms to exacting scientific definitions that conform to DNA

            Did you know conservatives are statistically less-educated than the left? I guarantee the average lefty reads more. In fact I bet every other person in this thread is more well-read than you.

                this comment comes off as something a petulant child would say

                Truest thing you’ve said so far, just not in the way you intended.

            I’ve read plenty, including biology textbooks that explain sex is more than just XX or XY.
