Just don't rush, and watch out for other people's ankles with your cart. Stop to consider if you have completely lost all sense of scale before buying anything perishable. Buy fruit! (at least on our area costco has better than anywhere else)

Is it just their history or are they doing worse things than other large companies now?

If concerened check your local water quality report, or test your well

If the level is low talk to your dentist about trying to make up for it

If the ground water has a very high level of flouride, then take the precautions recommended by your local health department

I know this comes across as very ovary = female, and I'm not trying to make the case that ovaries are the end all be all definition of female on an individual level.

One link has a clear quick description of how early development isn't clear cut. The other discusses how assumptions about female development being the default skewed research towards a focus on male development.

I think this everything that's not male is automatically female reasoning is flawed, and just reinforces the idea that sex is a strict binary. We start off with sex chromosomes that are very likely to guide development one way or another, but sexual development begins in a very ambiguous way.

Not everything fits into a strict binary. Sexual development is complex and just because a cell is not male doesn't automatically make it female. Likewise there are fully formed adult humans who don't fit neatly into male and female buckets.

Can you show me a source that says conception is a point before the fusion of the egg and sperm into a single cell? I found two definitions, one is when the cells fuse, creating a diploid zygote, and the other, which was new to me, is at a much later point when implantation occurs.

Sperm typically cary either an X or a Y chromosome. Generally as soon as a sperm fuses with an egg the the Y chromosome is present if there is ever going to be one.

Sex on an individual level is complicated. The executive order denying the existence of intersex people is stupid.

Gamete size is however a pretty standard way to distinguish males and females on a species level. Within any given species eggs are much larger than sperm.

I suspect they didn't just go with just chromosomes because it's too grossly overly simplistic even for them.
January 22, 2025 at 9:28 PM
Sex is not one simple thing. Generalizations are good for taking about a species, but everything can get very messy at an individual level. Some people are chimeras with a mix of xx and xy cells. There is even a case study of an SRY-deleted 47,XXY female who gave birth to biological children.

Sadly they will probably increase pressure for young kids to get surgery. The exact thing they pretended they were against.

Humans that have y chromosomes typically have them as soon as the egg and sperm fuse.
