Uhm, unisex is generally accepted to mean the same as gender neutral.

Nope, you can have duplication of the sex chromosomes. There are even women who are XXX, and I' m not talking about Donald Trump's whorefriends.

Just curious, with all this talk of chromosomes, which gender reassignment surgery changes ones chromosomes.

So, what I am seeing posted here is that there are exactly 2 sexes, not counting gentic disorders. Thank you for the clarification.

Gotta admit, I laughed out loud when I saw this!

Nothing I know of but I already addressed that.

I see that view the same way I view Newtonian mechanics. It seems to hold true in many situations, but in others it fails miserably.

Please validate you point in regards to Newtonian mechanics.

I'm just making an analogy. I assume that in this day and age, pretty much everyone knows that Newtonian mechanics falls apart when you approach the speed of light. So in other words when Einstein took a closer look at commonly accepted wisdom (Newton's laws), he was able to find a point where it breaks down (high speed). The analogy I'm making is that it looks like it might be the same with gender when scientists take a deeper look at human physiology. The notion of two definite genders looks like it might have broken down. It seems that hormones and receptivity to hormones plays a huge role in gender identity, and that sex chromosomes are just one determinant of hormone levels. There are plenty of articles on this subject. Don't take my word for it. I also assume that in this day and age everyone has the ability to do their own research. I just did a search on "number of genders science" and came up with a number of articles.

For the recorrd, I'm not implying that people cannot be attracted to the same or both sexes (or variations) and I don't care. But, there are only 2 sexes. Male and female (extremely rare anomalies excluded). Why would hormone therapy be needed if there is a predisposition? You want to bring in an analogy that at the speed of light (or greater), physics warps. Thats not analogous. Unless you have some really fast transgenders. Well, I guess we do. When a male identifies as a female and competes in track for instance. Trophies have been won and records have been decimated. after all.

Who said anything about hormone therapy? Please reread.

The analogy was about using scientific methods taking a closer look at reality and breaking down old paradigms. I've always said that conservatives are cognitively challenged when it comes to either making or interpreting analogies. Actually this all started when I originally said that conservatives were cognitively challenged when it comes to science. Thank you for proving my both of my points.
