I have posted this before and it is a great source of easy to understand science on sex. The old idea is that there are only two sexes, male and female so if it dangles your a boy / male and if it doesn’t your a girl / female. But as always medical science like most other sciences progressed and more data and facts became clear. Sex is not binary instead it is a spectrum. So for those that say you can’t change your sex, actually sex determination by genital inspection is incomplete and our sex is determined by far more than your genitalia. I once posted an article by a biologist that did a full chemical work up on a woman who had given birth to three children. That woman was happily female but her genetic markers and chemical make up had her slightly male. I have read of men with full working penises whose genetic makeup marks them as female. Life is far more diverse and wonderful than we once understood. Hug
We’re taught that chromosomes define biological sex: XX = female, and XY = male. However it’s not quite that straightforward. Hank Green hosts as we explain how science proves that biological sex is a spectrum.
