I laughed too damn hard. I wonder how many will go for the 'But I am actually intersex, bigot!' response.

Isn't that an extremely rare condition? Furthermore, I would be PISSED AS HELL if the TRA crowd would used something I had to live with as a gotcha.

yep, think they found it in one woman and a line of women in her family (mother & daughter or something). it's always "what about xyz?" with them. like, we're not talking about "women with XY chromosomes," we're talking about men who ID as women 🙄

Wait, a line of women? As in the mother was the carrier of the gene and the daughter developed CAIS?

Regardless, DSDs should not be used as a gotcha by men in party wigs and programmer socks.

Well, those with CAIS can't be female. By definition. Even though you'd never know it without doing their karyotype, or giving them an X-ray.

CAIS = Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome. Males whose bodies don't respond at all to masculinizing hormones (like testosterone) develop, from the time they're in utero, to appear female. But the key word is appear. Internally, their gonads are male-- instead of a uterus and ovaries, they have testes-- and their chromosomes are XY.

We report herein a remarkable family in which the mother of a woman with 46,XY complete gonadal dysgenesis

A 46,XY mother who developed as a normal woman underwent spontaneous puberty, reached menarche, menstruated regularly, experienced two unassisted pregnancies, and gave birth to a 46,XY daughter with complete gonadal dysgenesis.

This is AMAZING hahahahaha, this has to be put in future history lessons. Omg. What a time to be alive. Thanks for sharing, Chunkee.

It's so catchy too, lol. He did a great job of making the lyrics rhyme and also getting across the messages!

Very based video. I hope YouTube won't take it down.

Love this... Young man, you can't get rid of your Y even if you sucked the helium out of it until your voice got all high-pitched.

This is utterly delightful! A friend had shared it with me... and even with the grave threat that TQ+ presents (as well as the crisis that I'm now going through personally), it straight-up made me LOL for real :)
