Bogardus, Sex, and Gender

I have a tendency to forget useful figures, so I want to record Bogardus and his work for future reference.

A super useful article discussing the binary of sex.

A list of Bogardus' papers.  

And a cool quote I may use later: In this Twitch/YouTube space I've wandered into, many seem to think definitions are prescriptive, not descriptive. They're commands, so can't be true or false

At the same time, these folks offer counterexamples to show definitions are false, e.g. the dict. definition of "chair". 

There are stipulative definitions, which are commands. For example, "Henceforth let us use 'SARS-CoV-2' to refer to this virus!"

But stipulative definitions are not where the action is, philosophically. What we're looking for are "real definitions."
