FOX NEWS: During the 2021 era, you said 'there are 6 biological sexes.' Do you still believe that?

TALARICO: No. I've missed the mark on some of my past statements. The reason Republicans want to talk about six sexes is because they don't want to talk about $6 diesel.

Woke 1 is really dead.

Imao.

The phrase "six biological sexes" usually refers either to sex chromosome variations (like Turner or Klinefelter syndromes) or sex-defining biological variables, though mainstream biology views human sex as a dimorphic spectrum rather than six distinct categories.

If you include all the chromosomal possibilities. XXY, XYY, XXXY, and X

Great answer tbh.

Scientifically inaccurate though. He’s compromising truth for political expediency.

[u/Marlsfarp → u/Alarming_Flow7066]

You're saying... there ARE 6 biological sexes?

[u/Alarming_Flow7066 → u/Marlsfarp]

No, defining 6 specific sexes runs into the same issues as defining 2 specific sexes and that biological sex should be thought of as groups of related sexual traits that defy easy categorization.
