Myth Busts

Mythbusters’ Adam Savage tweets out that “gender is a spectrum,” aligning himself with activists who claim there are countless genders.
Also, listen up: gender is a spectrum. The closer you look at ANYTHING the blurrier the lines get. INCLUDING GENDER. LIFE is complicated.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I “listened up,” and you’re “all caps statement” remains asinine.
Before I launch into my diatribe, keep in mind that the left casually “blurs the lines” of what they mean by “gender” whenever it suits their stupid argument. Gender used to mean male or female based on your physiology. The left has redefined gender to mean male or female, or some in-between point “on a spectrum,” psychologically. Yawn.
No one is denying that there are people who are born with ambiguous genitalia. Studies concluded that this occurs about 1 in 2000 births. Activists claim it is more like 1 in 100, which would make “intersex” individuals as common as a red head, like Adam Savage, a dubious claim. But let’s not quibble over the number, let’s quibble about how people born with unambiguous genitalia claim to be somewhere else on the male/female spectrum. Let’s quibble about how an industry has exploited these rare physical anomalies in order to make the claim that Bruce Jenner, a man who was not born with ambiguous genitalia, is now considered to be a woman, both psychologically and physiologically.
Really, Bruce?
When’s your next gyno appointment?
Give birth. Make milk.
In terms of a spectrum, physiologically there seems to be 3 points – male, female, ambiguous. That’s not quite so dramatic as the dozens of genders that the left claims exists.
These other points on the spectrum, they are psychological. They are nothing but sexual predilections. They are fetishes. People should not be forced to address another person by their sexual proclivity.
A woman who is only attracted to men who identify as women, but who are asexual, does not get to demand that a special word be constructed for this particular predilection and have it included on application forms, or force me to use this made-up word in public.
What would stop men who are only attracted to lesbians from demanding that they be addressed as πs? (And if you don’t know how to pronounce πs, you better learn quick, or you might lose your Facebook account or be fined $1000 in New York .)
These “points on a spectrum” are only limited by one’s imagination, and I’m not really interested in them. They are intellectual exercises meant to try one’s patience. I’ll address you as he or she. The person with the ambiguous genitalia gets to choose from one or the other.  Dozens of other creative pronouns are giving me information I’m not interested in. I don’t care about who or what you are sexually attracted to.
Lastly, having a doctor futz with your genitalia in order to try and keep up with your sexual proclivities does not actually change you, physically, into a different sex.
Politeness is the only reason I would ever address Bruce Jenner as Caitlyn, a tantamount acknowledgement that I believe this person to be a woman. It would have absolutely nothing to do with science.

  1. Spare me with the 60 new pronouns for genders. Come on. I call you thing 1 today because that’s how you feel right now, and tomorrow I get into trouble because you feel like thing 2?
    Your’e either Man or Woman. DNA does not lie.

  2. In humans, sex is determined by chromosomes. The science, as they are won’t to say, is settled.

    Sexuality is personal preference. Since personal preferences don’t receive federal special victims rights protections, deviants attempt to blur the line by claiming they were born that way to use the government to force acceptance of deviancy on the majority.

    The science is settled on that point as well.

  3. Little Known Fact:. Adam Savage financed the first two seasons of Myth Busters by convincing drivers to abandon their vehicles and reduce emissions by offering moustache rides across the San Joaquin Valley.

    Fact.

  4. Saw ‘Bruce’ the other night being interviewed by Tucker Carlson. Its voice at first sounded like a baritone woman, which gradually , as the interview proceeded, turned into ‘Bruce’s’ voice apparently. It was an awful thing to watch…a man who became so obsessed with dressing as a woman (look who he had around him!) that he decided just the costumes weren’t enough. I kept throwing up a little it in my mouth, but stuck it through…and all I can say about ‘it’ is “That’s one effed up excuse for a human being!!!”

  5. Wow, 45 years ago, we were putting men on the Moon. Now, we hitch rides with the Russians to that crappy space station and can’t decide how many sexes there are after about 100,000 years of mankind having that question pretty much answered.

    Marxist deconstruction is achieving its final faze of total societal chaos and insanity. Some people really need to start dying in large numbers or the world will quickly become a dystopian shithole of the first order.

  6. In one episode, this clown put vacuum motor up to his face which instantly sucked it in and shredded it to a bloody mess for all to see.

    Adam, if a man self-identifies as a woman and puts his junk up to a vacuum motor…

  7. One of his favorite sayings was” I reject your reality, and substitute my own.” Apparently, he still thinks that’s possible. Unfortunately for him, you can’t ignore reality.

  8. “Gender” is a grammatical term.
    “Sex” is the term relating to male/female-ness.

    So they can use “gender” any way they choose because it has nothing to do with sexuality – and they KNOW that.
    The idea is to spread misinformation and lies – to disseminate evil and confusion – to corrupt and corrode the foundations of society.

    And it’s working! That’s probably the saddest part of all – that the “protectors” of society – the churches, the political establishment, and academia – are either silent or complicit in this pernicious fraud.

    izlamo delenda est …

  9. “…listen up: gender is a spectrum. The closer you look at ANYTHING the blurrier the lines get. INCLUDING GENDER. LIFE is complicated.”

    I’m listening up, but I have yet to hear a sciency word about the blurriness of the Climate Change Spectrum. Why is that, Adam?

  10. “Fetish” is a key word. Way too much Hedonism.

    I liked Mythbusters, it was good entertainment from entertainers.

    Entertainers are NOT scientists, leaders, or people who should use their media espouse their ideology.

  11. Why is it that the people who support the hypothesis of evolution are the same people that support a multiplicity of genders, all but 2 of which are not conducive to successful reproduction (without a turkey baster, at least)?

  12. DNA does not care about “fuzzy lines”.
    XX or XY.
    Next question?

    As the Left finally deconstructs itself into infantilism, I think a lot of us identify with Spock. Having beamed down onto a Class M planet populated by humanoids, but with a society so primitive and devolved as to be near self-extinction.
    I expect the Landing Party is ready to close our tricorders, signal to beam up, and take a long cleansing shower.
