Right, so you're refusing to engage with peer-reviewed sources.
Dude, in your first couple of posts you only managed to cite yourself. XD Peer review my ass. XD
This is not a serious conversation.
Sigh. I linked to a comment I had previously made, which links to the author of Sex Redefined (peer-reviewed paper) clarifying that there are two sexes, and quote her inline for easy reading.
You're right that I don't link to the paper there, but it's in the grandparent comment. Hit the "Show Context" button to get the link. Just so you can't evade again, here's the link:
https://www.nature.com/articles/518288a
That's a peer-reviewed paper published in Nature by a PhD Developmental Biology. When asked to clarify, She directly stated that the papers claims there are two sexes.
You have no excuse to not engage with it. Stop acting in bad faith.
EDIT: You originally responded in the thread for my comment that linked directly to this peer reviewed paper, so you have no excuse. Stop your bullshit:
https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10508-025-03348-3
Look, I'm just finding it more productive to continue making fun of you. You just make it so easy. XD
Right, so you’re refusing to engage with peer-reviewed sources.
Oh, man, I have bad news.
I wasn't even taking you terribly seriously yesterday and it's been like 12 hours since then. XD
Right, so you’re refusing to engage with peer-reviewed sources.
"Debate me," he screamed, but no one was there to listen, for they were all laughing at him.
