The New Science of Sex and Gender by the Scientific American Editors

Vital research is starting to challenge long-standing assumptions about gender identity and biological sex, such as work that indicates the brain is a "mosaic" of traits rather than a "male" and "female" brain.

Got a little sidetracked during an online workshop the other day; made myself a bow & arrow out of cotton wool tips and rubber bands…kitty was also entertained 😅

My ideas are like Kittens! Kittens in a basket, but the basket has spilled…now kittens are running loose and I must catch the kittens and return them to the basket…but which kittens do I prioritise?! How many will fit back in the basket?! And why is the grey one pissing on my basket!!!

First attempt at some #macrame today…satisfied with the results (especially having to work around mischief😸).

Love learning new things!

Hiya 👋, this is my #introduction.

I’m an #earlychildhood #educator and #researcher based in Australia. I’m doing my #PhD in… ah… how types of “talk” impact different learning contexts in early childhood settings 😅. I might get nerdy about if you stay still long enough.

I’m also interested in #indoorgardening, my #furbaby, and #vegetarian foodstuffs. I dabble in a bit of #procreate #art to relax and always enjoy reading good #books.
