>Professor Silverhorn, I was in the library the other day, in the Problematic Section, and I read something rather odd about a bit of rare biology. It's called, as I understand it... Chromosomes.

>I beg your pardon.

>Chromosomes. I came across the term while reading and I didn't fully understand it.

>I'm not sure what you were reading, Tom, but this is very toxic stuff. Very toxic indeed.

>Which is why I came to you.

>Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. They contain DNA which gives people specific traits.

>But I don't understand how that works.

>One copulates with a partner and passes on their genetic material. By doing so, the traits of the offspring are determined, should the egg be fertilized.

>Determined?

>The number and type of Chromosomes determines the traits.

>And which traits are determined, sir?

>I think you already know the answer to that, Tom.

>Gender.

>Yes, chromosomes determine gender. It's a violation against gender theory.

>Can they limit the number of genders? For instance, aren't two...

>Two? Marx's beard, Tom! Isn't it bad enough to consider limiting the number of genders a person can identify with? To crush the Spectrum into two pieces... This is all hypothetical, isn't it, Tom? All academic?

>Of course, sir. It'll be our little secret.
