Sooooo if this whole "biological sex" EO is really happening, biologists are going to make as much noise about it as possible, right? Professional societies, universities, individual research groups? It's really incumbent on us (that's a "biologists us" here) to make a BIG FUCKING STINK

I'm working on updating my "Data Detectives" class where students read about research misconduct and mistakes. I have lots of examples of misconduct, but am now looking for examples of popular press just going buck wild and over-interpreting scientific results. What are your fav examples??

hard decision, but probably this one. it was such a joy to write with @jacanamama.bsky.social and @doc-brock.bsky.social basically, "sex" is a bucket we throw a lot of things in, and we can better understand the ecology + evolution of the animals we study by breaking it down to its component parts
