Such a clear description of reproductive biology. That must be why TRAs can't understand it.
“Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.
“Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.
LegalEagle (popular BreadTuber) suggests a flaw in the wording above since fetuses, upon conception, don't produce gametes at that moment in the growth cycle. I understand he's trying for a lesser known tactic than the usual TRA, "aRe YoU cLaImInG tHaT sTeRiLe MeN aReN't MaLe, AnD tHaT sTeRiLe WoMeN aReN't FeMaLe?!?!"
But I do wonder if that bit "at conception" might be problematic later on when the legal challenges come...
The wording doesn't say that gametes are produced at conception. Rather, that sex, determined at conception, puts you in a sex class which does produce either large or small gametes at the appropriate phase in sexual development, or would, absent disease, defects, injury or surgery.
I unsubscribed from LegalEagle after seeing that argument.
Yeah its a bit sad. Why would you listen to a lawyer who cant comprehend a simple sentence?
One more in the excellent writings by biologists on this issue.
Why oh why can't the trans maniacs understand?
Can't if they're genuinely stupid, won't for the wilfully stupid and/or malicious, which I think is most of them.
