What evidence have you supplied that actually supports the claim that every single English speaker on the planet has the exact same hang ups you do over sex?

You didn't answer the question: how is a link to a sex education book & the Google Image results for "sex" anecdotal?

What evidence have you supplied that isn't anecdotal?

A google search is not the evidence you think it is unless you can somehow also find evidence that google is how words are defined by the entire English speaking population.

I don’t have the 1998 sex Ed curriculum for Australian public schools so therefore, every English speaker ever, including myself, thinks sex only means intercourse and that’s yucky and all children learn about plant and animal genders. 🙄

Happy now? Your hang ups are the worlds and we’re all so silly for thinking we use a word to mean something you disagree with. Thanks for correcting the silly women. 🙄 find something new to latch on to, homefry.

You're still avoiding the question, consider running for office: how is a link to a sex education book & the Google Image results for "sex" anecdotal?

What evidence have you supplied that isn't anecdotal?

Why are you so obsessed with a tiny mistake I made with words?

Why do you need evidence that I use a word differently to you? It’s insane.

Say your arguments without personal attacks.

All the name-calling is coming from HP.

Who started with the accussations of gaslighting when being met with disagreement? It certainly wasn't Houseplant.

Accusations of gas lighting is not a personal attack. You didn't know that? Well now you do. All the personal attacks are coming exclusively from HP. Prove otherwise.

Good thing I didn't say they were. The point was if you act like a jerk, then don't be surprised when others respond you in the same kind. You are drawing down the pyramid of debate by basing your arguments in baseless accusations of gaslighting (only because she disagreed with you...) and trying like like you're morally superior when she gets fed up with you. Now desist with your attitude problem right now.
