The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center is teaching medical students that gender is not determined by a person’s physical and biological characteristics, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital.
According to UT Southwestern Medical Center’s curriculum, the university teaches students that there is a differentiation between a person’s “sex” and “gender.” The curriculum states that “The latter is a psychological, social, and cultural construct, including self-identification. Gender is independent of physical structure, chromosomes, or genes.”
Arguing that there is a difference between sex and gender has become a common talking point for colleges across the country. However, UT goes one step further than that. While the college states that sex is binary and correlates to an individual’s sexual organs, it clarifies that there are, “anatomical variants that do not correspond to either of these so-called ‘typical male’ or ‘typical female’ anatomical variants of sex.” A video obtained by Fox News Digital on the Human Structure Development of the Urogenital System shows a UT speaker calling male and female parts of a “sex spectrum.”
If this sort of radical left propaganda was being taught in a sociology or psychology class, it would still be dishonest, but most people would not be surprised. But this revelation is especially concerning because it is being taught to students attempting to enter the medical field. This leaves many to wonder how long it takes for institutions to abandon altogether the truth that sex is defined by biology.
As a doctor, you take an oath to “do no harm.” It is your job to provide the best medical care possible to your patients. How can you do that if you acknowledge that patient’s “preferred gender” over their biological sex? Because men and women are different, this means that they are treated differently in the doctor’s office. It is essential for medical professionals to know a person’s biological sex so they can accurately identify the problem. Conditions like breast cancer, ovarian cancer, menopause, and pregnancy are all medical conditions that are exclusively applicable to women (although some rare anomalies could happen with breast cancer). If a patient were to have one of these conditions but tell the doctor that she is a man, this will prevent her from getting the care she may desperately need.
