Hard not to wonder if the endocrine disrupting chemicals we haven't banned but are changing sexes of many species, likely including ourselves, contributed.
It's unlikely, since this resulted from an abnormality in early development, before the specimen developed an endoctrinal system.
N.b. that bisexual chmærism happens all the time, but tends to go unnoticed so long as both gonads belong to the same sex, which is typically the case, as they are organs located close together.
What triggers this is that both gonads belong to different strata of the chimæra, and that thus one develops into male gonads, and the other into female gonads.
One's entire body can belong to a female stratum in the chimæra, but so long as only the tissue that forms the gonads belongs to a male stratum, they will develop into testes, and influence the entire female stratum to also develop masculine characteristics, as male and female cells are not differently receptive to sex hormones.
Why don't you read at least the abstracts of links you post? None of the links says that. One of the links mentions epigenetic changes which can propagate, that's something quite different from mutating genetics.
It's ironic how the most insightful comments on this site get the most downvotes. As if endocrine disrupting chemicals in the enivronment are not a possible contributing factor, and the eventual downfall and extinction of most if not all species. [1]
1. be wary of all citations to a _meta_ analysis;
2. be wary of dated results that are being republished without further research;
3. be very wary of publishers with an agenda beyond the fourth estate.
1. check
2. 13-page report published in 2017 without follow up turned into a book released yesterday
3. axios "Between the Lines" (https://www.axios.com/about/)
just because i like and/or agree with axios does not let them off the hook on #3
The body of evidence about the effects of endocrine disruptors/gender bending chemicals on the destruction of species is many decades in the making. Axios is just one of many to publish such stories:
I'm way more wary of people who post a lot, have been on the site for nearly a decade, and get everything they post voted down and flagged on a consistent basis.
yeah if anything I'm saying doesn't make any sense to you or it's wrong then it makes sense to downvote it, right? but when people provide evidence to prove otherwise, not sure why the down votes happen. One thing I do see about this site is that it is quite ironic that the majority of downvoted comments actually are the most insightful, and maybe that's because people just cannot handle the truth. you be the judge. Down vote me some more, it seems to make everyone feel better when they do that.
