NETFLIX EDITS 'SCIENCE GUY' GENDER EPISODE
Washington Free Beacon excerpted on WORLD NET DAILY ^ | May 3, 2017 | Washington Free Beacon

Posted on 05/04/2017 7:08:50 PM PDT by Trump20162020

When uploaded to Netflix, an episode of the educational children’s show “Bill Nye the Science Guy” cut out a segment saying that chromosomes determine one’s gender.

The original broadcast of the episode, entitled 'Probability', saw a young woman explain (at 9:07 below):

“I’m a girl. Could have just as easily been a boy, though, ‘cause the probability of becoming a girl is always 1 in 2,” a young woman says in the show. “See, inside each of our cells are these things called chromosomes, and they control whether we become a boy or a girl.”

Sex is a biological category. It isn’t a dirty word. Your prudishness is boosting the gender ideologues.

My grammar’s chromosomes helped to determine my sex/gender two generations later. She was a good lady.

Bill is still an engineer masquerading as a climate scientist.

There is NO SUCH THING as gender when referring to living beings. Humans have sexes (and there are exactly two of them barring genetic defect).

Only inanimate objects and parts of speech have genders

I’m just about done with Netflix.

They promote their homemade crap (and the vast majority of it IS crap) and definitely have a skewed rating system.

There’s no way the new Bill Nye show earned 5 stars from viewers. Amy Shumer’s special had 1 out of 5 stars the first few weeks after it was added, and now has 4.5 out of 5, and is pushed as highly recommended.

They are quickly falling into the Google/Bing/MSM/Facebook category.
