OP Opinion: I don't like the article title.

TLDR: What does focusing on DNA have to do with bathrooms? An academic & too polite "use your brains dumb asses"

It's such a clear example of politicised science.

Creating a system of biological categorization for living organisms? Sweet. That's just science.

Using that system to justify hurting people? Oof.

This is, and always has been, a people problem. It has nothing to do with science.
