So skipping all the “omg animals work differently than humans!”
Let’s start with 5-alphareductase, this is a medical disorder (note that word) that rarely occurs in women and is always due to a syndrome. From JAMA “ It is clear that there are significant differences between sex-specific and gender-specific responses to hormonal manipulations. In men androgen deficiency or deprivation can promote insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and vascular disease. In contrast, in women androgen excess leads to cardiometabolic disorders. Striking parallels between the metabolic consequences of male hypogonadism and female hyperandrogenism have been recognized.”
For the laymen this means that women, yes women, who can grow a penis (more lump of flesh on the penile region) due to this syndrome STILL HAVE STRIKINGLY DIFFERENT EFFECTS THEN MALES. Odd isn’t it?
The other “examples” she gives are all genetic dead ends due to mutations which cause non functional genitalia anyways, so completely redundant to even acknowledge. Then we get to this “scientific” gem at the end.
Such science, much wow.
Scientists have become the priestly caste, with all the corruption and moralizing that implies.
Science Teachers have been like this for a while. Discuss Evolution with them, and watch.
It's also, 5-alpha reductase.
