Sex Pseudoscience and "The Alarming Ideological Capture of Our Scientific Institutions"

"Scientific" American went progressive Lysenkoist years ago. But it's still worth talking about.
   Almost forgot: the video linked on the other side of the link is--as if you won't be able to tell--utterly nuts. It claims, inter alia, that nobody thought there were two sexes until the late 19th century. Imagine someone believing such patently insane nonsense. Imagine someone believing such patently insane horseshit and being represented by a reputable popular science publication as an authority
   You may also be interested to know that the "two-sex system" was adopted because....racism! 
   Of course the continuum fallacy plays a big role in the sophistical pseudo-justification of this nonsense, as usual.
