It's Sunday, Apr 08 2:30pm GMT (GMT+00:00). If you have your timezone in your TL profile and I did the tags right, that should be adjusted for your timezone.
edit: it might be an hour off because of daylight saving's, not sure.

She directly asks people to respectfully refer to her as female.
Lennoxito and truthbombDROPPER flaunt their ignorant views when they know they are disrespectful. Whether or not they are just playing dumb and acting like they don't understand the nuances does not matter when it is clear that they are purposely disrespectful. If they don't understand something then they can humbly ask for explanations. They can also make it a point to not do exactly what has been clearly stated is disrespectful.
Not only were they disrespectful to Scarlett, they're disrespectful to everyone else and to the mods. One said we're in denial and the other said mods are petty for banning someone for speaking the truth (when in fact it was not the truth but ignorance and deliberate disrespect).
Gamegene is nice enough to give them a hint that can start them on their own research if they really want to but also calls them out on the fact that they're purposely being dicks.
Lennoxito contradicts him.
I'm nice enough to explain the basic difference in 6 words.
And then aebriol swoops down from the Ivory Tower and gives us a study on how academics have increasingly used gender synonymously with sex. However the study isn't relevant because it's over a decade old and it isn't arguing that there aren't nuances when talking about a person like Scarlett or discussing gender issues. It is merely showing how prevalent it was to ignore the possibilities of such nuances whenever possible. In other words, the natural scientists who were using gender synonymously with sex were not denying the existence of the issues that caused gender and sex to be used differently in the first place. Their usage wasn't indicative of their ideology. Some feminists had begun to merge the concepts of gender and sex as both social constructs but again that is not denying the nuances of a person like Scarlett. The whole idea of aebriol linking this study is absurd anyway because he's just trying to point out why some people might be confused but anyone with an ounce of common sense who has read the exchanges between Lennoxito and truthbombDROPPER and everyone else could see that they're not just confused by the notion that gender and sex are not synonyms. As if the reason why Lennoxito straight up contradicts Gamegene is because a bunch of natural scientists began to prefer to use 'gender' in place of 'sex' just as feminists began to strongly emphasize the difference between the two...
Yeah, SOTG thread.

This paper says that the use of the word gender as a separate concept from sex only started in the 1970s to suit the political purposes of feminists, and apparently it did not catch on for long and never entered mainstream parlance.
The most important factor was the adoption of gender in the 1970s by feminist scholars as a way of distinguishing “socially constructed” aspects of male–female differences (gender) from “biologically determined” aspects (sex). This distinction is now only fitfully respected, and gender is often used as a simple synonym of sex.
Merriam Webster says the word gender dates back to the 14th century, and defines it as synonymous with sex.
1gen·der noun \ˈjen-dər\ 2 a : sex <the feminine gender> Middle English gendre, from Anglo-French genre, gendre, from Latin gener-, genus birth, race, kind, gender — more at kin First Known Use: 14th century http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gender
So it seems incorrect to claim that sex and gender used to be different. Rather, the concept that the two are different is a modern redefinition done for political purposes.
Interestingly it shares a common root with the word genus, a word that refers to biology.
