NextImg:Female to be Replaced with "Egg-Producing"


The words “male” and “female” should be phased out in science because they reinforce ideas that sex is binary, scientists have suggested.


Researchers studying ecology and evolutionary biology should be encouraged to use terms such as “sperm-producing” or “egg producing” or “XY/XX individual” to avoid “emphasising hetero-normative views”, experts say.


Even one of the most famous scientific concepts of all time, the “survival of the fittest”, should no longer be used because it discriminates against people with disabilities and is linked to eugenics, they advise.
