Bull fucking shit to the commenter in that thread who stated physical attraction is 100 percent society and sensory cues, and that genetics is not involved. Fucking lies. Females especially have more than one system in progress when we smell other people. Our biology knows from HLA ( mhc in animals) if someone is genetically close to our genetic makeup ( the species mates for diversity, so someone who is close to you might be weird and icky if you kiss), pheromones are driven by genetics. Just because some male shoots up estradiol doesn't mean he's a lesbian and that REAL lesbians can't know the difference. That's where genetics IS involved. The many trans widows I spoke to commented, every one, that when they had close contact with the husband after he started shooting up, he didn't smell like a man anymore, or a woman. Some joked alien. Studies have shown statically significant evidence of a few things: Females ( hetero) when blindfolded and handed a few dozen shirts to smell, know which one is their husband's. Also, those same women reported getting disgusted by smelling some of the other shirts and found them a turn off-- and those are the ones which have the genetic similarities. With regards to the olfactory system and genetics, it's proven lesbians have a biologically different system going on. More than that, and upsetting, is researchers believe that after some women are harassed and attacked by men, their hla will change to not want men anymore. What that means is they are without home and try to date women because they are biologically now repulsed by xy. There are some women-- born that way, and some are made. Therapy will never work fully because that system just changed. Your fucking biology can change from getting assaulted.

The whole thread of comments is disgusting.

Whenever I come across these types of stupid arguments about sex and gender I always change the species from humans to sheep or dogs and get them to repeat their assertions so they understand just how ridiculous they sound. Once you take any human emotional angle and 'gender feels' away from the facts the whole thing collapses into farce.

Up is down and left is right, folks.

Biological sex is usually discussed in the sciences in regards to reproduction. I doubt reproduction is this guy’s main concern.

How could they tell, if gay doesn't mean "adult male attracted to other adult males of the same species"?

They remember what biology says only when they need to push their agenda.

I have a gun in my hand, maybe it's pointing at you someone, maybe it's not. But as long as I don't pull the trigger, I don't really have a gun, and it's not pointing anywhere either.

It's impossible to discuss something with someone who's not doing it in good faith, or if the discussion is in danger of leading to conclusions that absolutely must not be drawn.
