I couldn't care less what some cuck from Yale says, and I never used the word "science" once on this thread, I'm telling you I don't give a shit about someone's mental illness or sexual fetish.That's all made up nonsense?
Here is the Yale School of Medicine, reporting on the Institute of Medicine Convention from 2001:

What Do We Mean By Sex and Gender?
As we pursue our work at Women's Health Research at Yale, it is particularly important to use language that captures the different concepts of sex and gender somedicine.yale.edu
The IOM, now embedded within the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM), concluded there was more than sufficient evidence that, beyond reproductive biology, there were major differences in the biology of women and men that greatly affected their health and influenced treatment and prevention strategies.
Importantly, the committee emphasized that neither the health of women nor men is simply a product of biology but is also influenced by sociocultural and psychological experience. To differentiate between these broad areas of investigation, the members created working definitions of “sex” — when referring to biology — and “gender” — when referring to self-representation influenced by social, cultural, and personal experience.
The committee advised that scientists use these definitions in the following ways:
- In the study of human subjects, the term sex should be used as a classification, generally as male or female, according to the reproductive organs and functions that derive from the chromosomal complement [generally XX for female and XY for male].
- In the study of human subjects, the term gender should be used to refer to a person's self-representation as male or female, or how that person is responded to by social institutions on the basis of the individual's gender presentation.
- In most studies of nonhuman animals, the term sex should be used.
These working definitions were a good start in recognizing the value of studying sex and gender and their interactions, yet they were always meant to evolve. Now, we are learning more about ourselves and so must adapt our terminology to be inclusive, respectful, and more accurate.
This is on the confusion between sex and gender and the implications:
The hilarious part is that you claimed that "science" was on your side. But of course when you are shown otherwise you say.
wah wah I just don't care
Which proves my point. It is not about being true to 'scientific fact' or common sense. It's about you being a malcontent, pathetic, uneducated snowflake who thinks using pronouns to refer to people is an infringement on their liberty.
As for their "rights", they already have rights, the same rights that I have, and those are human rights. They're free to think what they want, and they're free to fuck who they want... this entire conversation is about imposing their nonsense on others who don't give a shit.
Anyway, you keep harping on about this all you want, you're obviously completely disconnected from reality and can't see that the vast majority, and that includes the majority of lefties, and done with this nonsense. This shit is going the way of the dodo, and not a moment too soon.
But yeah, tell me more about some gender studies essay...
