programmes to watch

What she said - and this as a scientist talking to the general public, was (among other things)

"Well, I only have the skeleton to look at, and no idea of the lived experience of sex and gender of those individuals. But sex is not strictly binary, after all"

People disagreed with her. I didn't see "hate, bile and misogyny" on that particular thread. One response was

"Unintended result of your promotion of trans ideology (I speak as a gay man) is that discovery of a female skeleton which sheds new light on achievements of women in past is now being used to argue that skeleton is actually trans. Women written out of history. Again."

On the other hand, Professor Robert Winston once appeared on Question Time where he said that human beings couldn't change sex. He hasn't been seen on the BBC since.

 

I honestly don’t care about this gender thing.
