Sex and gender are orthogonal. Chromosomal sex and phenotype sex (physical sex) are quite independent of each other. "[T]here are dozens of genes on chromosomes other than the X and the Y that contribute to sexual differentiation." See isna.org/faq/ for a lot more detail.

Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS) In an individual with complete AIS and karyotype 46 XY, testes develop during gestation. The newborn AIS infant has genitals of normal female appearance. AIS individuals are clearly women. If Khadija El-Mardi tests XY, she is likely to be AIS. No deception.

This has been said before, but it bears repeating: Trump ran on a promise of deporting millions of alien criminals. When his police couldn't find that many he was forced to come up with a way to make immigrants criminal so he could deport them and "fulfill his promise."

Elon Musk's proliferation of children -- some 14 admitted, to date -- is pure Eugenics. It is not the form that the Social Darwinists promulgated, but it is in concert with the original vision. Of course, you have to accept Musk's vision of desirable heritable traits to consider it a good thing.

Doing some research on intersex, found: Usually, a woman has two X chromosomes (XX) and a man one X and one Y (XY). However, both male and female characteristics can sometimes be found in one individual, and it is possible to have XY women and XX men. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK222...

In my experience, "entering" is an understatement. I see the current fixations gaining traction when Nixon and Newton Minow banned rational discussion of alternate lifestyles on radio, mostly on FM stations.A little intensification under Reagan. Expansion led by Newt Gingrich and "protect children."

I'm still trying to learn the system here. I need some help. I missed saving three posts recently that I need for a project. One was listing several conditions that make sex non-binary. One pointed out that Biden's brain was aging while Trump's is dementing. One was about criminalizing migration.

The key difference between mob rule and a democracy is a constitution -- that is honored and enforced.
