    CRISPR on our gonads to produce estrogen instead of testosterone?

    🤔 It’s pretty tempting, and as long as it’s not hereditary, I’m all up for it. 🏳️‍⚧️

      Or testosterone instead of estrogen. Though I’m doubtful that exchanging X and Y chromosomes will change the physiological function of your existing organs that much.

      I honestly just meant to do this for no other reasons than to flip the bird to conservatives who arbitrarily define sex chromosomally.
