    The only valid argument I can come up with is if you do research and the biological sex is a factor it could become harder to make reliable statistics. The same goes for when you want to research specifically issues of trans men and women. I wonder how this can be done in an ethical way in the future, without causing trouble.

      My criticism of the Left changing words is that it leads to tribalism and purity tests.

      Which never in a million years would make me think “hey, maybe the Nazis have a point”

      People can be identified based on their biological sex and gender separately. This distinction allows researchers to be more nuanced in their studies and is in no way inhibitive. People can easily disclose this information when asked.
