Chuck Norris is dead? The same one who endorsed pedophiles Donald Trump & Roy Moore, propped up the Obama birther conspiracy, was outspoken in his hatred for gays & Muslims, and was obsessed with Netanyahu, guns & Mike Huckabee? I’ll save my thoughts & prayers, thanks.
This is a step forward IMO. FACT~ ID’s such as birth certificates have never had a single biological marker of sex. There is no central office that records people's chromosomes or genitalia. The science is clear: there is no single physiological or biological marker that allows for the simple categorisation of people as male or female. Gonads were once thought to define one’s sex. In the 1800s. By the 1950s scientists had identified at least six markers of sex: chromosomes, gonads, hormones, secondary sex characteristics, external genitalia and internal genitalia. While these markers may align along a female-typical or male-typical path, that’s not always the case. What’s more, each of these markers comes in more than two versions. For example, people are often assumed to have either XX or XY chromosomes, but some individuals are born with an extra X chromosome and others have a mosaic where each cell has one karyotype or the other. So while sex is commonly thought to be straightforward, consisting of two clear categories of male and female, the breadth of human physical variance is more complex than the categories suggest. The upshot: there are many biological markers of sex but none is decisive. Claiming that one factor is does not reflect the science of sex biology, and certainly can’t be used to determine who is a woman! @IndiaWilloughby
