I loved Colin's observation about how it's fallen to the exiled spider biologist to state the truth that other scientists are afraid to speak. Sad yet funny.

Never thought I’d live in a time where basic biological facts are deemed “hate speech.”

[chrisazure]

Science by social media pressure. Sure, that is a great way to do medical science.

[michrich]

Generations of women and girls will thank you for helping them be safe.

[karinak]

I hate the fact that we’re even having this conversation in the first place haha

[MarciaMatthews]

Two brilliant scientists forced to stand up for human sexual biology.

I hate that TRAs co-opted intersex in order to justify themselves. That's beyond inappropriate.

[PSTroise]

Has anyone labeled a transphobe actually been a transphobe? Names? Reasons?

[calmon-ground]

Hearing them discuss how they met... it's like watching the sky from dusk to dark. As the light fades, more and more points of light appear. Thank you Benjamin for pointing to these points of light.

You make these discussions a lot more palatable to digest. The subjects in this realm are nauseating at times, appreciate your voice boyce.

[randygault]

Uh oh.. "lower organisms" is going to trigger the critical animal studies crowd I just learned about, and wish I hadn't

[pointcuration]

Normies: Listen to the science!
Also normies: no not like that

[lisao]

Congrats for the article in the Wall Street Journal and thank you!!! It's about time some biologists said something publicly.

[A-No-One]

Ben, my girlfriend and I love your craft and work. Thank you for being the man you are. You rock brother!

[wackypidge]

Much much love to Emma & Colin. <3 They give me hope for the future.

Don't listen to what biologists have to say about sex, listen to culty sociologists. Hard science bad, flaccid science good.

[Chickiwi]

Thanks, Benjamin, for curating such interesting and balanced thinkers as your guests.

[americanexile]

Sex is reported at birth, not "assigned". The reporting or recording of biological sex is over 99.9% of the time straight-forward. This language of "assignment" needs to be questioned -- if not dropped entirely.

Brilliant, brilliant interview. Great job as always, Mr. Boyce! Thank you for spreading this!

[cronecrone]

Colin, we won't die on this ridiculous mole hill, we are standing on it with you. Thank you!!!! 💚
