I dont get why the infinite number of genders is a thing now and not then. When i took biology in college there were 2, obviously to them its a lot more.

Why is this pseudo science now trying to debunk i what learned in college a few years ago and not then?

They aren't; they are pushing an idea which has no place in science (or society for that matter), because they have divided gender and sex. To them, sex is your biological gender, and gender is how you identify. It is truly anti-science, because the concept is so poorly identified that you cannot falsify or criticise it.

>> No.9198850

>>9197860
The distinction is based on factual observations regarding certain social constructs. It's a useful concept in anthropology and sociology, among other fields. Obviously it's impossible to disprove someone when they say they "feel" like this or that gender. But the existence of gender as a concept related to but distinct from biological sex is pretty much indisputable fact.

It is impossible to isolate environment from biology, and therefore the division between sex and gender is not strongly supported.

It is wrong to assume that all of our social constructs exist solely because of society. As I've said above, biology always plays a role. Why do boys play rough and girls play with dolls? Well, that's not always true, but boys are biologically more inclined to enjoy rough play due to pre-natal testosterone exposure.

>It is wrong to assume that all of our social constructs exist solely because of society.
I wouldn't really call that an assumption, I'd say it's part of the definition. No society, no social constructs. Without a concept of gender we could still make observations like yours but we wouldn't have a framework to fit them in.

>> No.9199340

>>9199233
There would be a framework to fit my observation in. The framework would be the binary category of male vs. female. What I am inferring is that it is WRONG to differentiate sex and gender, as the two words mean the same.

As for social constructs, I was inferring that there are very few (if any) true "social constructs" in regard to sex/gender. Most differences we see between men and women have arisen from the interaction between biology and society, and not SOLELY from society or SOLELY from biology.

>> No.9199365

>>9199340
>What I am inferring is that it is WRONG to differentiate sex and gender, as the two words mean the same.
Right, well, they don't. Because while you only mention "inclinations," you have nevertheless categorised rough play as a masculine form of play, even though girls are very well capable of it. Just because there is a biological underpinning, that doesn't mean it isn't a social construct. Gender, in the end, is intangible.

>> No.9199547

>>9199365
When i equated boys to rough play i said that it's not always true. This is something that is statistically true. The term sex is enough to differentiate between the two. I don't understand your insistence to use the word gender as holding a different semantinc meaning
