I love biology. It's a scientific subject. It is a very investigative subject which has existed for centuries. Amongst prehistoric people who were scientifically talented, it involved observing basic differences between living and non living objects. One of these was reproduction. It's a very visual science too, more concrete perhaps than a black hole. It often still relies on observation.eg microscopy.

Early biologists noticed long floppy bits between the legs of some adults, and two round floppy bits on others. They invented words for them. The words had meaning as the latter bled and little babies sometimes came out of them. This had nothing to do with their brains or their emotions.

Me too I love biology I'm getting in quick on this one before it's shut

SisyphusWasGenderCritical · 03/07/2018 11:07

Me too.

I do however have serious concerns about the sanity of some members of the human race, given their ability and willingness to tell and accept complete falsehoods as the truth

Oooh I love biology too and it's ability to show the truth. There's no double speak in biology. Just plain and simple facts.

So the words are man and woman. That's what woman means at the earliest evolution of the word in the English language. "The type of human that sometimes has little babies coming out of their bodies"

It was great when biologists created names for humans or animals who shared characteristics like the ability to produce eggs (or lack of ability to produce eggs due to biological abnormalities that have specific words)...

We're revolutionary biologists!

I love both biology and words - meaningful definitions which serve to aid clear communication including law making.

Obviously, to early mankind, the ability to achieve this remarkable feat was worth commenting upon. Because they valued children they are precious. The amazing feat of producing a new child was communicated about. Who would do it next? They wondered. Early biologists made hypotheses. Some of them reckoned it tended to be the ones with two round wobbly bits on their chests who could pull off this stunt. They took ever such large samples that would impress the most cynical statistician. In fact, these clever biologists were never proven wrong.

What do you call people who belong to the group of [word for people who produce large immobile gamates] but don't self identity as [word for people who produce large immovable gamates] they actually identify as [word for people who produce small moving gamates] and how do you describe the difference between these two people?

I have stepped into an alternate dimension where I’m wondering if I will be censored for speaking about biology. The biology that has been researched, formulated, discovered and written up by thousands upon thousands of people since antiquity. All checking and rechecking eachbothers work. Subjecting it to scathing peer review. Challenging it.
Science which has allowed medical advances such as antiseptics and antibiotics that mean we don’t routinely die of sepsis after tiny wounds. That has developed vaccines that have saves the lives of hundreds of millions of children and adults.
Science that has been my career for nearly three decades and my passion since I was tiny. A career dedicated to human health and wellbeing, working in labs which have made genuine breakthroughs in human development and cancer and now in clinical research. Work that actually helps improve human health.

It’s very dark in this alternate dimension. And it it isn’t very nice.

I always think there is something rather beautiful and fascinating about anatomic diagrams, seeing what is inside all neat and laid out and labelled.
