"LOOK UPON THE FACE OF YOUR NEW POPE. HIS HAPLOTYPE IS IRRELEVANT. HIS PERUVIAN HERITAGE ASIDE, LOOK INTO THE EYES OF A CHICAGO SPORTS FAN AND KNOW THAT HE HAS SUFFERED LIFETIMES OF ANGUISH. THE FAILURES OF THE HAM SANDWICH RACE PALE IN COMPARISON TO THE 'DOUBLE DOINK', THE BULLS AFTER THE YEAR 2000, AND THE UNSPEAKABLE TRAUMA OF BEING A CUBS FAN. KNOW THAT I DO NOT SPARE HIM THE JUSTIFIED TRUTH ABOUT HIS GENETICS OUT OF CONCERN, BUT MERELY RESTRAINT; THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL MISERY I NEED TO PLACE UPON A CHICAGO FAN, IT WOULD MAKE ME SEEM WEAK AND OPPORTUNISTIC... LIKE YOU, HAM SANDWICH."

Do archeologists ever use skulls for gender identification in digs? I suspect it's incredibly unreliable to use as a means of identification due to overlapping variations.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

You can, but it's not an exact science. Any responsible anthropologist calls it a sex estimate because it's not a sure thing. Broadly speaking biologically male skeletons tend to be more robust than biologically female skeletons but there are plenty of exceptions to this "rule".

Edit: ideally you'd also be using other methods for sex estimation and comparing all your results. It's still just an estimate if course because there's plenty of room for interpretation of skeletal remains. Plus obviously biological sex ≠ gender but that should go without saying

Afaik they use pelvis, though other bones are also used when pelvis is unavailable, this is way less reliable though.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 16 hours ago (3 children)

Size itself seems particularly unreliable. Men can be small and women can be large just based on nutrition alone.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

Fun fact, when they exhumed general Pulaski remains, they determied he was a trans man.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 14 hours ago

With the pelvis it's not only size but the shape as well, especially for individuals who have given birth. The pelvis is a more reliable source for sex estimation than the skull, though it is still an educated guess. I would be very suspicious of anyone claiming to be able to determine the sex of any skeletal remains with any degree of certainty

[–] [email protected] 6 points 14 hours ago

talkin' out my dude ass doo doo ass here but I feel like they probably use literally whatever clues they have available including skull size and shape but probably within the context of as many other things as possible

like I think they kinda just do what they can when they have like half of a skull and a middle finger and they gotta figure that shit out

[–] [email protected] 9 points 16 hours ago

When the pope is clocky :/

Conclave reference???

[–] [email protected] 8 points 18 hours ago

I thought up two derangement syndromes today: there's Rachel Zegler Derangement Syndrome and there's also Everyone I Don't Like Is Secretly Trans Derangement Syndrome. Psychologists of hexbear note, these two often take up space in the average reactionary's head.

Telling the pope he will never be a real man to own the libs.
