The community barely exists and certainly isn't toxic. Mass downvoting is a great way to undermine the conversation though

They can have bones with a little CRISPRing

Yeah, that's great for flagging spam or stuff that's not relevant to the community it's posted in. Downvoting content that's good for a community just because you don't like the community is like the godbotherers that yell at people about sin during pride celebrations. Don't be like them.

Sure, but all that imperfect categories and blurry lines and whatnot is exactly what gender is for. The controversy section is indeed interesting but not really relevant. It's good to use more specific terms like CAIS when appropriate, but if you want some term to refer to all such similar situations, intersex shouldn't be used.

Sex is simple and serves an important purpose in biology. If we redefine sex into something that isn't based around gamete size then biologists are just going to make up a new word that means what sex used to. Biology is hard and messy and discovering such a widespread rule is a major scientific win.
