Myths
This article promotes the following myths:
Argument
- "The sex of an organism is defined and identified by the way in which it (he or she) is organized for sexual reproduction."
- "So an organism’s sex [...] is identified by its organization for sexually reproductive acts." (reiteration of point #1)
"Sex as a status – male or female – is a recognition of the organization of a body that can engage in sex as an act."- This is a naked assertion, and is false.
"The conceptual distinction between male and female based on reproductive organization provides the only coherent way to classify the two sexes."- This is a reiteration of point #3, which is false.
"Apart from that, all we have are stereotypes."- This is also false, and flies in the face of several decades of evidence.
