Let’s talk about you and me Let’s talk about all the good things and the bad things that maybe… Us humans have never really had a good definition of what it means to be a certain sex. A male maybe looks like a male and acts like a male and maybe has male secondary sexual characteristics and maybe probably produces sperm or “smaller mobile gametes”. While a female, maybe looks like a female, maybe acts like a female and has female secondary sexual characteristics and maybe probably can produce eggs or “larger non-motile gametes”. Intersex, no one really bothers with trying to define them because they ruin all the traditional and conservative narratives of sex. One thing that is true right now is that everyone wants to redefine sex. Conservatives want a new definition to stop the “woke mind virus” and progressives want one to be more inclusive. The problem with sex definitions is that none of these characteristics we use to try and define it are universally true. Which, I’m sorry to say, doesn’t make them very “scientific”. But that doesn’t stop people from declaring otherwise. The definition of an electron isn’t correct 95% of the time. Quantum mechanics exists because Newtonian mechanics wasn’t correct all the time. Making universally true definitions of sex is probably impossible and to be honest, all the attempts are weak as fuck. Maybe we should stop trying?
