Trump's Executive Order Against Trans Technically Makes Every American Female
- delichon 2y agoChromosomal sex is established at conception but physical differentiation occurs later. The idea that all humans start as female is mistaken. It stems from the observation that in the absence of male specific signals embryos will follow a developmental pathway that results in female characteristics. But biologically speaking embryos are not inherently female. They start in an undifferentiated "bipotential" state.

- JumpCrisscross 2y agoThe difference in quality between this and the top comment reifies the downsides of AI for analysis. Also, this is pure bullshit: “These findings collectively enhance our understanding of embryonic sex differentiation and development.” I don’t even think a university press office would write something that meaningless.

- bexxy 2y agoWhat do you mean? It's a DSD that only affects males. The penis is malformed and the testes, which still produce normal levels of testosterone, are internal. No female sex organs are present.

- dinkumthinkum 2y agoI think the author of this article just has trouble with reading comprehension or they interpreted this in a childish way to make a click-bait article. It's really not that complicated.
- bexxy 2y ago> but the basic blueprint is what we ascribe to female bodies – that's why, for example, everyone has nipples and not just those people who might end up lactating (although everyone has the potential to do that). What a stupid take. As everyone has nipples, it very obviously isn't an anatomical feature ascribed only to female bodies. The author needs to learn some basic embryology and stop publishing incorrect and misleading articles on this topic.
