An example of not gender related biology is that we are taught that electrons are on rings. But what we learn later, if you choose to take chemistry or take a science class in college, that there are no rings. Just a path they are most likely to be found on.
But most people (at least where I am from) believe the common drawing of an atom is 100% how it is with firm defined rings and the electrons very visible.
It's true simplifying concepts, like on this whole electron thing, can help younger people understand a basic understanding (basic being the key word) of the material, but it's not as detailed and true as many people strongly believe.
Basic bio, as you said, is basic. The surface level. Has complexity and most everything removed.
Every biologist I've seen talk about gender has said there are several kinds of gender and sex markers and it's not an exact thing due to all the variables.
And if you take even more advanced classes (or are a nerd like me) you learn that electrons, like photons, are both a wave, and a particle, and they fall into specific “shells” becaude they have a definite wavelength, and can pack as many into a shell as they have wavelengths.
And the reason they like to form pairs with opposite spins, is because they like to form standing waves. A moving wave orbiting an object is unstable, like an off balance fly wheel, but having a standing wave is much more balanced.
Sorry for the yap, I just like info dumping about stuff like this
Yeah, but waves also get really funky, becaude instead of traveling through the path of least resistance all the time, they are only most likely to do that, there is a small chance that they deviate from their path, and go in a completely random direction for no reason
Im from the US and my brain was bastardizing the words in this comment as I read them because im like half awake and bored and it auto-did an "apartment complex?" Type joke and I out loud said "primary school? If primary school's so good why isn't there a secondary school" and unironically it took me like 10 seconds of laughing to myself before realizing
It'll always blow me away that people think that the version of the world they got taught when they had a child's brain in their head is going to be accurate to reality
To be fair, that comments probably from a troll. Like I think that a lot of people who write “Well, “she” isn’t a woman” are probably doing ragebait or are adding to the bit. There are some genuine ones, especially when it initially happened, but most of them aren’t so.
Funny how it's 'He has a dick so he's a man' until trans men have dicks and suddenly he'll never be a man? Even with their own bullshit they're not consistent.

Ohhh JK would hate this and I love it
Ragebaiting TERFs is the best thing you can do against them because at least you're laughing and they're not and that's a win in my book
Basic biology mfs when you tell them gender dysphoria IS biology: 🤬
Technically it's not basic biology. You're forgetting that transphobes didn't bother to update their knowledge since they left primary school.

Holy shit that's cool. Thank you for this really cool micro bio info. I genuinely feel my life has become more enriched from learning cool shit today.
Is this satire? I can never tell on Reddit :P
Not satire. I think science is really freaking rad.

They wanna go on an adventure sometimes and that's ok
ADVENTURE TIME CMON BRING YOUR FRIENDS

I thought gender dysphoria was psychology
Neurological!
Oh ok

ETA: spag
How the turns have tabled
hilarious
Funny
LMFAO
I don't think this is a win honestly
It’s not, and that’s the point. Nobody wins with TERFS, including cis women.
