Jonjon79 13,358 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 It's well known that the ancient Greeks were a bunch of poofs but, I'm pretty sure that cavemen knew how to throw a straight spear. These nutters talk about 'assuming' biological sex but, that's all they have for prehistory - daft assumptions. ......... the sex of a very old skeleton is determined by science. I'm looking forward to the day that all of this silliness comes to an end and, we can point and laugh at these fools again 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 32,319 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Would have thought staying alive was more important to folk back then than wether they identified as mark or Mandy, we have twisted history for years to suite our own agenda, but this is now getting a tad childish, next we will be trying to trace there ancestors to say sorry give them a council house and compo 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Born Hunter 17,960 Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 There's a conflation between sex and gender. In the article the proponents of this non-binary classifier say that "sex and gender should not be assumed" and then go on to only argue how gender is fluid and completely neglect sex. Point being, I don't think archaeologists really attempt to identify gender, by this modern 'fluid' definition, and only really identify sex, which is a strictly biological variable. Identifying 'sex' is as objective as identifying the species, there's no logical allowance for fluidity. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
