When uploaded to Netflix, an episode of the educational children's show "Bill Nye the Science Guy" cut out a segment saying that chromosomes determine one's gender.
[...] While noncontroversial at the time, the 1996 segment appears to contradict Netflix's new series "Bill Nye Saves the World."
The new show endorses a socially liberal understanding of gender, under which gender is defined by self-identification rather than genetics and there are more than just the two traditional genders.
People, people, people... Say it with me: The Internet Never Forgets.

Sorry, if you're both specifically studying people who misuse the term "gender" and going along with it yourself in scientific papers, you are either an SJW yourself or a very poor scientist. Words have meanings and in science precision is necessary. Think up a new word if you like but you can't have this one.

Brain scans are brain scans, Buzzard. They don't have political opinions.
I shared those links (as I mentioned in another post) so that you, if you like, can learn more about the science.
That's it. Carry on.

You're attempting to argue with the wrong person, Buzzard. I have no skin in this game.
Perhaps you can get a rise out of these guys. [transequality.org]

It's not those with skin in the game trying to redefine a word, for the most part. It's their cheerleaders and wannabes.

I'll bite! Your an ignorant blowhard who likes to pretend he's smart. Your only enjoyment in life seems to be spreading misinformation, bad opinions, and trolling people online. Clearly you need to improve your life, travel more, and maybe finish / goto college and learn something outside your comfort zone. You are a troglodyte trying to wear a wizard's cap and you just look like a fool.
