Scientific American has published a piece claiming that “misinformation,” such as the notion that there are only two sexes, is “being used against transgender people” and in order to target “gender-affirming medical care.”
The article states that there are three types of “misinformation,” and they are “oversimplifying scientific knowledge, fabricating and misinterpreting research, and promoting false equivalences.”
The piece asserts that “Many of the arguments against trans rights center on the idea that transness itself is not legitimate—that there are just two sexes, period.”
There are only two sexes though.
It then turns to ‘scientist’ Simón(e) Sun, a self described trans(sexual) ándrógýne \ (neuro)biologist, pronouns in bio person and notes “You describe this idea as ‘sex essentialism.’ Can you explain that term, and talk about how it shapes the debate.”
They/she then states “Essentialism is the idea that you can take any phenomenon that is complex and distill it down to a particular set of traits. In the case of sex essentialism, the idea is that you can sufficiently describe sex by a few particular characteristics. In this debate, it used to be chromosomes, now it’s gametes (egg and sperm cells).”
Yeah, that is biology 101 and no matter how many times they/she says it’s changed and that anyone who doesn’t agree is a ‘transphobe’, it hasn’t.
They/she continues, “The target is always moving, because if you want to make something binary, then you need to find the most binary characteristic. Today, sex essentialism boils all of sex down to the gametes that a person produces.”
Again, biology 101.
“But biology is just not that simple,” Sun continues, adding “The sex essentialist perspective is completely wrong about the biology of how sex characteristics arise.”
It is that simple though.
The piece goes on in this vein, throws in ‘hate’ and ‘prejudice’ and climate change and Donald Trump, all to push the ideological agenda that life-altering drugs and surgeries shouldn’t be challenged.
All of this comes in the wake of a major long term study in the UK that concluded that treatment gender-confused children have been offered was built entirely on “shaky foundations” and that there is “no good evidence to support the global clinical practice of prescribing hormones to under-18s to pause puberty or transition to the opposite sex.”
The author of the review, retired consultant paediatrician Dr Cass, formerly the president of the Royal College of Paediatrics, called the evidence for life altering drugs “remarkably weak” and warned that transgender activists are the ones “deliberately spread(ing) misinformation.”
Since the review was published, Cass has been subject to abuse and cannot use public transport over fears for her safety.
Meanwhile, trans activist groups continue to push their propaganda on children, encouraging teachers and school officials to keep it hidden from the parents:

Scientific American has been talking out its Arse for the past decade. Nothing like publications funded by clowns pushing Agendas. Make them ALL irrelevant.
They became Unscientific American when they fired Forest Mims years ago. They have been on a downhill slide since then. It now seems, they have gone over the cliff.
Francis Shaeffer, Christian apologist and philosopher warned about this 3 or 4 decades ago, that once man jettisons truth, he ends up destroying himself. It is sad to watch this self destruction occur with increasing speed.
Scientific American Dumbass
There, fixed that for ya’!
SA used to be a very prestigious publication. What the hell happened?
Scientific American’s name is misinformation.
Apparently science is now anything the government decrees.
“Scientific American” needs to change its name.
News at 9. Reality being used against the mentally ill.
Scientific American has gone down the sewers and come out as clean as a whistle and smelling like a rose.
One could easily enough shed decisive clarifying light on this issue, technically also, along with many others often more important, but it’s simply too uninteresting to do so on the basis of current arrangements or anything close, meanwhile, everything will keep falling apart and approaching true catastrophe (including natural etc) so long as they are not seriously ameliorated. It’s really remarkable just how corrupt and cretinous Western ‘elites’ are, they are prepared to not only flirt with geopolitical but geophysical etc cataclysm until it is truly too late rather than engage better alternatives for a tiny fraction of the cost while there is still time even in theory, so long as they can squeeze even one more day of their power and privilege out of it uninterrupted. But interrupted is exactly what they will be, when they least expect it, and in the most shocking and smashing manner at that, with Lasting Consequences for them most of all.
Scientific American is no longer scientific. Another institution ruined by the moronic.
Satan’s Children vowed (in 1897) to wipe out White Christian Civilisation
using, Drugs, Queers and Mass-importation of 3rd World Feces!
And they DID!
Un-Scientific American is one of the masters of 9-11 misinformation, as they pushed theories of absurd supporting beam failure and pan-cake destruction of the three towers.
misinformation = any fact that is at odds with the leftist narrative.
