Sex is Binary! By Mrs Vera West

A survey of around 200 British scientists has concluded that with the exception of a very small number of intersex people, sex is binary, divided between male and female. The figures are important: 58 percent of the scientists believed that, but 29 percent believed that sex was not binary, and 22 percent did not respond. On the gender issue, 64 per cent said gender was fluid, while 22 per cent said gender is binary, and 14 per cent did not respond. While this survey has been taken to present a case against the gender agenda, it shows how far the ideology has moved through the sciences, let alone the Arts and Humanities, where now it dominates and the results from this area would be very different indeed. If things continue with the long march through the institutions, expect the sciences to reach the present levels of woke of the Arts and Humanities within the space of years.

"Sex is binary, according to the majority of British scientists in a poll.

The difference between sex and gender has become an increasingly incendiary topic as activists, scientists and politicians all debate the terms and the implications they have for policy.

But a survey of almost 200 scientists at British universities, conducted by The Telegraph and Censuswide, found 58 per cent of respondents think sex is binary, except in rare cases such as intersex individuals.

Less than a third (29 per cent) agreed with the statement "sex is not binary", while one in eight people (13 per cent) had no views or preferred not to answer.

However, almost two thirds of scientists (64 per cent) said gender was fluid, while 22 per cent said gender is binary, and 14 per cent gave no answer.

"To me this just means that at least 29 per cent of the academics that filled out this questionnaire do not understand the biological concept of sex, and at least 22 per cent of them do not know what gender means," Dr Wolfgang Goymann, professor for behavioural biology at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Intelligence, told The Telegraph.

Dr Goymann recently published an article in the journal BioEssays, where he said some scientists are arguing that sex is a graded spectrum rather than a binary trait.

"Leading science journals have been adopting this relativist view, thereby opposing fundamental biological facts," he said.

"While we fully endorse efforts to create a more inclusive environment for gender-diverse people, this does not require denying biological sex.

"On the contrary, the rejection of biological sex seems to be based on a lack of knowledge about evolution and it champions species chauvinism, inasmuch as it imposes human identity notions on millions of other species."

The survey touched on a range of topics that are divisive in the scientific community such as the origin of Covid, the Government's pandemic modelling and gain-of-function research, as well as the gender/sex debate.

Only UK lecturers were invited to fill in the form and more than half were educated to PhD level or higher. The faculty of social sciences accounted for 18 per cent of the participants, 13 per cent were medicine and 12 per cent were life sciences."
