DoomsdaysCWLouder for the folks in the back... GENDER IS A SPECTRUM!!! 'Nuff said!From 2018: Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and maleBy Claire Ainsworth & Nature magazine"As a clinical geneticist, Paul James is accustomed to discussing some of the most delicate issues with his patients. But in early 2010, he found himself having a particularly awkward conversation about sex. "A 46-year-old pregnant woman had visited his clinic at the Royal Melbourne Hospital in Australia to hear the results of an amniocentesis test to screen her baby's chromosomes for abnormalities. The baby was fine—but follow-up tests had revealed something astonishing about the mother. Her body was built of cells from two individuals, probably from twin embryos that had merged in her own mother's womb. And there was more. One set of cells carried two X chromosomes, the complement that typically makes a person female; the other had an X and a Y. Halfway through her fifth decade and pregnant with her third child, the woman learned for the first time that a large part of her body was chromosomally male. 'That's kind of science-fiction material for someone who just came in for an amniocentesis,' says James. "Sex can be much more complicated than it at first seems. According to the simple scenario, the presence or absence of a Y chromosome is what counts: with it, you are male, and without it, you are female. But doctors have long known that some people straddle the boundary—their sex chromosomes say one thing, but their gonads (ovaries or testes) or sexual anatomy say another. Parents of children with these kinds of conditions—known as intersex conditions, or differences or disorders of sex development (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DSDs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DSDs</a>)—often face difficult decisions about whether to bring up their child as a boy or a girl. Some researchers now say that as many as 1 person in 100 has some form of DSD." 'When genetics is taken into consideration, the boundary between the sexes becomes even blurrier. Scientists have identified many of the genes involved in the main forms of DSD, and have uncovered variations in these genes that have subtle effects on a person's anatomical or physiological sex. What's more, new technologies in DNA sequencing and cell biology are revealing that almost everyone is, to varying degrees, a patchwork of genetically distinct cells, some with a sex that might not match that of the rest of their body. Some studies even suggest that the sex of each cell drives its behaviour, through a complicated network of molecular interactions. 'I think there's much greater diversity within male or female, and there is certainly an area of overlap where some people can't easily define themselves within the binary structure,” says John Achermann, who studies sex development and endocrinology at University College London's Institute of Child Health."These discoveries do not sit well in a world in which sex is still defined in binary terms. Few legal systems allow for any ambiguity in biological sex, and a person's legal rights and social status can be heavily influenced by whether their birth certificate says male or female." 'The main problem with a strong dichotomy is that there are intermediate cases that push the limits and ask us to figure out exactly where the dividing line is between males and females,' says Arthur Arnold at the University of California, Los Angeles, who studies biological sex differences. 'And that's often a very difficult problem, because sex can be defined a number of ways.'

DoomsdaysCWHmmmm... Why am I having <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DejaVu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DejaVu</a>? From 2022: "Vladimir <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Putin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Putin</a> has mentioned 'gender freedoms' more than once to justify <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Russia</a>’s war against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ukraine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ukraine</a> and simultaneously crack down on its own citizens."Most directly, he alleged that Russian citizens who seek '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GenderFreedoms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenderFreedoms</a>' (alongside foie gras and oysters) are part of the anti-Russian 'fifth column.'"Gender and sexuality freedoms — or rights, as they are more typically called — are about <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BodilyAutonomy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BodilyAutonomy</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/diversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#diversity</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/inclusivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#inclusivity</a>. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Feminist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Feminist</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LGBTQ</a>+ activists assert that every human being deserves respect, recognition and equal rights regardless of their gender or sexuality."What’s the connection between Putin’s animosity toward Ukraine and toward <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gender</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sexuality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sexuality</a> rights in Russia and around the world? Gender and Putin’s regime"Putin’s regime has increasingly relied on very conventional gender and sexual norms."When he first ascended to the presidency, image-makers used Putin’s <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KGB" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#KGB</a> background and penchant for physical fitness to frame him as a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/macho" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#macho</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strongman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#strongman</a> who could reverse Russia’s waning power and 'remasculinize' the country after a decade of supposed geopolitical flaccidity in the wake of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Soviet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Soviet</a> collapse. "In other words, an inflexible and clearly <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/patriarchal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#patriarchal</a> notion of masculinity has been central to the Putin regime’s legitimacy."Russia’s foreign policy has relied on rigid gender norms as well. When Ukraine underwent its first pro-democracy revolution in 2004, Russian media questioned its leaders’ masculinity."Putin likewise used homophobic terms to dismiss <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Georgia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Georgia</a>’s <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RoseRevolution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RoseRevolution</a> in 2003, responding to a reporter’s question by saying: 'A rose revolution — next they’ll come up with a light blue one.' In Russian, 'light blue' or goluboi is slang for “gay male.” Gender and appealing to constituencies"Putin has often been represented as the unquestioned leader of the pack ruling Russia — a masculinity-driven image."However, even as the leader of a personalist <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dictatorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dictatorship</a> — a regime in which there are few institutional limits on the leader’s power — Putin must balance competing interests among significant elites and maintain at least the appearance of public support in order to be considered a legitimate ruler."Until 2020, Putin was using gendered language in his speeches to signal his alignment with a variety of elites and public constituencies that supported him. He was sending mixed signals to both relatively progressive Russians who value women’s roles in the workplace and to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/conservatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#conservatives</a> wishing for a return to '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TraditionalFamilyValues" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TraditionalFamilyValues</a>,' in order to keep everyone in his camp."But after July 2021, when he published an essay contending Ukrainians and Russians are a single people, Putin no longer shied away from making sexist and LGBTQ+-phobic comments in prominent settings."At an October 2021 meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club — a Moscow-based think tank and discussion forum that Putin is closely associated with — he said teaching children about <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GenderFluidity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenderFluidity</a> was 'truly monstrous' and 'verging on a crime against humanity.'"

On Wednesday, the Owasso Police posted a statement to the department's Facebook page, which appeared to defend the Owasso High School's response to the February 7 incident. The statement also suggested that Nex's death the following day was unrelated to the bathroom assault. In a text exchange with Popular Information, Sue Benedict, Nex's mother, said she considered the Owasso Police statement a "big cover" and believed it was only released as "something to calm the people." "Benedict said the Owasso Police did not contact her before releasing the statement, which included "preliminary information from the medical examiner’s office." According to the statement, although the medical examiner has not made a determination about the cause of death, the preliminary information "indicated that the decedent [Nex Benedict] did not die as a result of trauma.""Separately, an attorney representing Nex Benedict's family released a statement that the facts of the case "are troubling at best." The attorney said that not all the facts have been released to the public and that the family would conduct its own investigation, including "independently interviewing witnesses and collecting all available evidence."<a href="https://popular.info/p/nex-benedicts-mom-raises-doubts-about" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://popular.info/p/nex-benedicts-mom-raises-doubts-about</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TransPhobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TransPhobia</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GBLTQRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GBLTQRights</a>
