The majority of scientists at some of the world’s leading universities have agreed that gender is binary and not “fluid,” a new poll has revealed.
According to a report published by the UK’s Telegraph, almost 200 scientists at British universities were polled about the issue from 2023 to 2024.
The newspaper conducted the survey with Censuswide, a market research consultancy headquartered in London.
The poll of scientists found that a majority of respondents view gender to be binary as it is determined by a person’s biological sex.
However, most of the scientists also said they believe “gender identity,” where a person lives their life as a gender that isn’t their biological sex, can be “fluid.”
The scientists drew a sheer distinction between gender and sex as a biological classification and the leftist ideology of “gender identity.”
With the caveat that excludes rare cases involving “intersex” individuals, the pollsters received feedback showing that 58% of respondents believe gender is binary.
The Cleveland Clinic says people who are intersex “have genitals, chromosomes or reproductive organs that don’t fit into a male/female sex binary.”
Twenty-nine percent of respondents agreed with the statement that “sex is not binary.”
13% of respondents did not share a view
