You have yet to establish why it is an invalid term.
We have sex, it’s a fake word to make up fake biology.
Gender is a term which is widely used within popular and academic culture.
So, doesn’t make real or needed. Academic elites have made themselves a hysterical joke.
As I have mentioned numerous times it is used during cross cultural and historical analysis.
It’s a recent fake term so no.
Most ethnographies and social research makes at least some mention of gender now.
I’m sure they do but past societies didn’t
It is also used by people who themselves have quite widely differing political and theoretical stances.
That insanity is quite clear.
You made the claim that we cannot change our biology. I was simply demonstrating that we are able to change our biology on a phenotype level.
I’ve gotten that clear 47 posts ago, and it’s nonsense.
You made the claim that we cannot mitigate our biology. The examples relating to eye defects demonstrate the mitigation of biology. Something you said we couldn't do.
We’re not talking about birth defects but the twist plot is a good one to makeup fake biology.
Except I have already highlighted numerous ways where we can change our biology.
And you are wrong on every level.
Earlier in our exchanges I also mentioned areas of research where we are becoming increasingly aware of the relationship between the sociocultural and the biological.
Trying to change society with fake science everyone is aware.
The examples I gave were from research on immigrants to USA conducted by anthropologists which compared them to their parents and other studies which looked at the toll on children living through cities under siege during WWII. We also have research from neuroanthropology. and I would add medical anthropology, which looks at the relationship between brain development and sociocultural environments.
Which still makes it impossible to change your biology.
I’m not, but trying to confuse a public on faking biology is what it is.
There are concrete areas that we can change our biology on a phenotype level
Wrong. Can’t change our biology. But you let me know when a guy shoots out a baby from his ass.
and in other areas we are increasingly gaining knowledge of the relationship between the sociocultural and the biological.
We’re gaining a lot of something that’s for sure.
Although as I acknowledged earlier it is quite complex so it is not a simple one to one relationship.
It’s pretty simple when it comes to male and female. It couldn’t get any simpler.
There have also been cultures which have had three or more genders. A number of Native American cultures had three genders for instance.
Which is not three sexes it a birth defect.
There have been cultures within which people were able to change their gender.
Never happened, hence the push for a made up word.
This doesn't invalidate or repudiate the usefulness or value of the term. No does it disprove what it is being used to describe or explain.
It just makes it fake anthropology.
Like I have already said, simply because you lack familiarity with cross cultural and historical data does not mean that it doesn't exist. No matter how much you deny it, the cross cultural and historical literature demonstrates that gender shows variance and diversity.
I think I might start a drinking game every time you write like I already said and try to convince me a guy can become a woman 😂
Yes there has. Again, you not knowing about it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist.
No, different cultures conceive of and understand gender differently.
Nope, made up term from the 90s
The association between wealth and identity is not limited to gender either. There have also been instances where people could change their ethnicity through accumulation of wealth.
Neither happened but we got plenty of mentally ill people pretending to be black today world when they are white but it’s still fake.
It has happened. Gender is about sociocultural understandings after all.
The sickness is happening now yes.
