Free speech

Sad to hear that a country is anti-science.

As Richard Dawkins recently clarified, "As a biologist, there are 2 sexes. And that's all there is to it." It's binary and there is no exception. People that claim otherwise are confused.

A censor convinced you that you were wrong. You weren't necessarily wrong at all. You may have been correct the first time. And what is correct when it comes to art? Who is this person to tell you, the artist, that your art is wrong?

Buck Angel and other trans people often disagree completely with the conclusions of these censors, who motivated by exerting power over others. Why listen to them over other trans people? Don't give censors that power over you and your work. You're the artist. Don't let others tell you your art is "wrong". It's not. Stand up for yourself and your art.

The attempted colonization of the Spanish language by Westerners who are offended by its gendered terminology is a real-world illustration of this.

LatinX.

From Coinbase's post:

For anyone who understands how NFTs and blockchains work, this is clearly not possible. Apple’s proprietary In-App Purchase system does not support crypto so we couldn’t comply even if we tried.

This is akin to Apple trying to take a cut of fees for every email that gets sent over open Internet protocols.

That's a category error. Developmental sex disorders (DSDs) are variations of anatomy, not variations of sex.

The existence of intersex people does not change the fact that sex is binary. Sex is defined by gametes.

Intermediate gametes do not exist.
