Time to Ask the Rude Question

The rude question has to be asked as to why it is way more men die of the coronavirus than women?  Early on, smoking was thought to be the culprit, especially in countries like China where 53 percent of men but only 2 percent of women smoke.  Italy and France also have high smoking rates among men.    However, as the virus spread across countries and continents, including the U.S. with a very low smoking population, men were still two-thirds of the fatalities.

This is one thing the "gender identity" crowd can't explain away because SEX matters.

The theory about the deaths is that when it comes to diseases, males are the weaker sex, according to this article.

I do not like the crap of using redundant language like "genetic males" and "genetic females."  Sex is genetic--no need to be redundant.  This pandering to the trans crowd needs to stop.

Despite this linguistic horseshit, the author does have an argument:

But we’re only just now beginning to understand the full advantage that this extra X chromosome confers: It’s not just that women have a spare X chromosome to swap in. Rather, the more than 2,000 genes that, combined, make up two X chromosomes, are used by cells that actually interact and cooperate within a woman’s body. Each cell predominantly uses one X chromosome over the other — so if one X chromosome has genes that are better at recognizing invading viruses like Covid-19, for instance, immune cells using that X can focus on that task, while immune cells using the other X chromosome focus on, say, killing cells infected with Covid-19 instead, making the fight against the virus more efficient.

Typical males, by contrast, are forced to get by in life with just the one X chromosome. What if a male’s particular genes aren’t able to competently recognize or kill off cells

Women, since they are the part of the species which gestates and gives birth, of course will have an advantage in this regard in order to protect the fetus from harm.
