  • Yeah, I read that. I still reserve the right to reject your analogy because I don't accept it as relevant or analogue to anything. You can't go "don't say these things that disagree with me" and expect me to shrug my shoulders and go along.

  • I mean, your analogies that fall apart at the premise don't really help.

  • Yeah, that's one way to (not) answer.

  • You start that "analogy" with the binary assumption. That's where it falls apart.

  • Yeah. So "nearby structures" determine sex, not "size of gametes". What are they nearby? Possibly nothing.

  • You'd THINK capitalism would cause that to happen, wouldn't you?

  • So sex is determined by what structures medical professionals expect to be there.

  • Cool, you're only now even contemplating what I've been talking about for several posts. Ovarian agenesis, Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, anorchia.

  • The spherical cow does exist though, it's in the teeny tiny slivers in the OP's post.

  • So it's not the size of gametes but some secondary structures vaguely involved in the development of structures that are involved in the production of gametes. Did I get that right?

  • You do you.

  • All I'm hearing is "If my shitty behaviour as a tourist in your country towards people in the service industry makes a person in the service industry feel bad, that's their own fault (also here are some truisms about connection that seem neither here nor there)" and I SERIOUSLY hope that's not what you're saying.

  • There's nothing about the production of gametes in there.

  • Okay, cool, you did understand me though, yeah? Gonna explain what you meant earlier? The feeling of being scolded for something I said and not knowing what is one up with which it's hard to put.

  • Let me rephrase that: people without ovaries, uterus, vagina or testes. Nowhere in their bodies. They have a vulva or a penis plus scrotum.

  • No that's not what I mean. People can be born without ovaries, uterus, vagina (but have a vulva). People can also be born without testes (but have a scrotum and penis). They do not possess these organs, they are nowhere in their bodies. That's what I was talking about in the very beginning.

  • Are you then going to answer my question and tell me what size gamete a body without either ovaries, uterus, and vagina, but a vulva, is "organised" around? Or are you going to shift the goalposts further? First it was "size of gametes", now its "organised around a size" and I still don't know what that even means.

  • It seems like it.

  • Sorry, I don't know what you're referring to.
