Insanity is mandatory nowdays.
Religion professor Alison Downie, who threw a student out of her class for arguing that there are only two genders, published a blog post earlier this year explaining why a group of smiling Christians sent her into an unanticipated rage.
It is not only a grammatical term. It came from the same Latin root as genius and means more properly a type/kind/category of something. The word "genius" still means categories sometimes, although these days it usually just means really really smart. In older traditional usage genius may still mean smart in ways that were novel and unique--thus the relation to category, and thus the relation to the Roman concept of "genius" which was kind of a spirit or life-force of an individual or kind of thing that drove it on.
In English, there are three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter.
In regard to some languages there are word types yes, they are sometimes divided into "masculine" and "feminine" and for some languages "neuter". But these are word types.
However, sex is a biological term. In the species Homo Sapiens, there are only two sexes: male and female.
In regard to sex, the term "gender" applies to the type, and there are indeed two. When it applies to nouns there may be a different number of "genders" depending on the language.
In discussions about human sexuality, gender means the kinds of sexes, thus there are two genders in the scope of such discussions. All the rest is a lot of confusion about language created by people who claim to be academics and experts or what not, and who really ought to know better--but I suspect might even want to confuse the issue on purpose.
I get your point and agree; however, on the biological level to be accurate there are hermaphrodites but they are considered genetic anomalies.
Liberal progressives have zero credibility, and their hypocrisy is on full display every single day.
Its a tactic women ise all the time when they can’t win an argument on logic and facts. They start deflecting and misdirecting to something else, like your tone. I dont like how you said that.
Fact is she isnt going to like anything you say that stops her winning an argument she cant defeat. She has to shift it onto something else she belives she can win.
Thank YOU.
King David or any of the multiple other versions that are recognized today

King David version of the Bible?
I guess I’ve heard it all now.
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
There are 4 sex’s.
Male
Female
Confused and....
Confusing
I decided this on my own, I’m a genie ass..
(self made genius)
Jesus asked the Pharisees of his day, “...Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female?” (Matthew 19:4)
Moses writes in Genesis 2:2 “And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.”
There have been no new sexes by God. God ceased his creative effort on the 7th day.
These are false teachers and heretics who teach this blasphemy. They need to be condemned.
X – Roughly 1 in 2,000 to 1 in 5,000 people (Turner’s )
XX – Most common form of female
XXY – Roughly 1 in 500 to 1 in 1,000 people (Klinefelter)
XY – Most common form of male
XYY – Roughly 1 out of 1,000 people
XXXY – Roughly 1 in 18,000 to 1 in 50,000 births
This excludes a few other oddities of nature.
Still that does seem like more than “two” I doubt that is what they were trying to make the person admit to, but technically “two” is not a correct answer.
The six biological karyotype sexes that do not result in death to the fetus are:
X – Roughly 1 in 2,000 to 1 in 5,000 people (Turner’s )
XX – Most common form of female

XY – Most common form of male
XYY – Roughly 1 out of 1,000 people

Have you noticed you don’t hear the word Tolerance any more?
We’re past that.
Gender perversion is another legacy of the Hussein administration’s fundamental transformation.
What is Alison Downie’s gender?..... She is a nut.
This is her GOOD picture, too.
