Love Dr. Colin Wright's explanation of 'sex' and also from the Genspect talk he gave and the main interview 155 on here.

I've heard from people who support the whole Gender Theory about how Sex is a spectrum, etc.,etc., and used the 'in nature'.. which is true, some animals, species can change sex - change their body basically, but it hasn't been proven [as far as I know] in Humans!!!

This thing of non-binary, that I'm still struggling to understand but only because these people reject one type of stereotype to take on another one [I am prompted by a comment from somewhere else in this wording].

I've watched 30+ episodes of Gender: A Wider Lens and I have to say as a 'male' that I now look at all this differently, despite living in my gay world and listening to this nonsense.

The world has changed in my life time. After all these episodes I now would think:

I was born a male.

there might have been reasons for humans to develop into Stereotypes, Man, Woman - in the past, but now with society, but, one could say:

I was born a male and the rest is up to me in how I want to live my life [of course some societies and situations might disagree and I might be forced to live in their stereotypes] and express myself.

I've said it before, kind of tongue in cheek, if we can all self determine our gender, then that means there are 8 billion separate expressions on gender on this planet.

That means that everyone of us is a minority or at the very least, no minority exists anymore.

That not one activist can criticise anyone else because of this and just leave us all to live our lives.

That is my thinking now.

Again, thank you for these videos. I feel like I don't have to keep arguing myself out of continued 'anti' blah, blah, situations... it is like a weight off my shoulders..

I loved this. I appreciate what Colin said about anthropologists… I don’t believe in “throwing people off the island” but I can’t resist saying that Agustin Fuentes (an anthropologist from Princeton) drives me insane and I do not know how he has a job. He has published on humans not being a sexually dimorphic species and I feel offended by this every time I have to get a man (who doesn’t workout) to help me with a job I can’t do (despite working-out every day, HARD).

Nerding out!! This was great. Along the lines of Chimp Empire was Meerkat Manor on Animal Planet back in the day. Oh the harrowing drama! 🤣
