    No, I don’t agree. I concur in the personal level if it’s bothering you, but a scientist, who is the guy that wants to use that data, will find useful what the statistic mean by “male” or “female”. There are statistical differences between both groups. That’s very useful.

      I don’t disagree, it’s just a lament born of exhaustion. As if any subsequent divisions, alternatives, euphemisms, or specifications wouldn’t immediately be surmised as “woke mind virus.”
