noun
noun: gender; plural noun: genders
1.
either of the two sexes (male and female), especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones. The term is also used more broadly to denote a range of identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female.
"a condition that affects people of both genders"
members of a particular gender considered as a group.
"social interaction between the genders"
the fact or condition of belonging to or identifying with a particular gender.
"video ads will target users based only on age and gender"
2.
GRAMMAR
(in languages such as Latin, French, and German) each of the classes (typically masculine, feminine, common, neuter) of nouns and pronouns distinguished by the different inflections which they have and which they require in words syntactically associated with them. Grammatical gender is only very loosely associated with natural distinctions of sex.
the property (in nouns and related words) of belonging to a grammatical gender.
"determiners and adjectives usually agree with the noun in gender and number"

guess which definition isn't scientific?

I have a better definition from a specialized dictionary:

gen·der noun The attitudes, behaviors, norms, and roles that a culture or society assigns to an individual on the basis of his or her sex at birth.

The simplest distinction between gender and sex is that gender is socially-constructed whereas sex is biological.

Gender is a system created to establish differences between men and women that are not natural or biological and reinforce those differences as essential.

I know I bang on about this, but...

The brain of a transgender person is often more like the desired gender from an early age.

The cart now leads the horse.

It used to be that your certain set of beliefs dictated whether you were conservative. Now it seems to be more that if you identify as conservative you are compelled to believe in a particular set of beliefs regardless.

That set of beliefs has also grown over the decades to include more than just religious dogma.

In fact I agree totally.

That’s pretty fair, truth be told. It’s also a bit disheartening.

You're wrong, as usual.

Probably religion is a large factor. Seems the more religious a person is, the more they're likely to turn away from any science that they can't gel with their religious beliefs and the Right is generally a more religious group.

eg Kent Hovind believes in the "Young Earth" position and he rejects all science that claims otherwise. But I guarantee you if he got cancer, he'd look to science to cure him.

I still laugh at how Kent Hovind triggers morons and haters ike you lol. He knows far more about actual science than you do.

I see you still haven't called him up to debate. Hmm, wonder why that is, exactly. We both know the reason. It's because you'd lose, badly, just as pretty much everyone else who debates him loses.

What did I say about Hovind that was incorrect?

I called, got a voicemail, left a message and never heard back.

IIRC, his number is 1-800-BIG-DINO, I believe.

Call him up , Rob, and set up a debate with him on You Tube. Dazzle us all with your "superior knowledge" of science lol.

Don't be a little chicken shit who only talks trash about someone behind their back. Prove to us all how much more knowledgeable about science you are than he is lol.

That's why I don't go in for those click-baity things that tell you whether you're centrist/left/right/whatever. Merely 'knowing' that a political ideal I have leans slightly more in one direction that I would like isn't enough to make me change it.

Like I'm supposed to go; Oh no, my opinion on prison reform is apparently more authoritarian than I want it to be, I'd better step in line.

If you're just going to ignore what I said and dodge questions meant to further the conversation I see no point.
