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.

    Failed faggotry. However many "genders" there are today, NONE OF THEM are "scientific". Queer, bent, twisted bitches decided that they aren't queer, bent, or twisted, so they must be something different. They make up a word, and that's a new gender.
