The Merriam-Webster dictionary appeared to update its definition of “female” to include “having a gender identity that is opposite of male,” effectively erasing the concept of biological sex.

The dictionary appeared to add to its primary definition of female, which is defined as, “of, relating to, or being the sex that typically has the capacity to bear young or produce eggs.”

However, while the primary definition overtly acknowledges the biological reality of the female sex, which makes it distinct from the male sex, the U.S. dictionary effectively negated its own definition by adding additional explanations to seemingly submit to the radical transgender movement.

Merriam-Webster’s sub-definitions, which seemingly erase the reality of biological sex, include:

having a gender identity that is the opposite of male
made up of usually adult members of the female sex
designed for or typically used by girls or women
having a quality (such as small size or delicacy of sound) sometimes associated with the female sex
This would not be the first time Merriam-Webster has moved to satisfy the mounting demands of transgender activists. As Breitbart News reported in July, Merriam-Webster updated its definition of “trans woman” to “woman who was identified as male at birth,” once again taking another step in erasing the biological reality of women.

We understand the birds & the bees, but what about the possum or opossum. The male has a 2 headed pecker, and the female is designed to match. Saw that on a nature show, & didn't believe it so I looked it up.

That is rather polarizing.

The function of dictionaries is to record the way words are used, not to prescribe. It isn't a matter of the dictionary taking any sort of position. What they consider is evidence of a word being used in a particular way, and if there's enough evidence of it, in it goes.


With typical dictionaries (I assume this is the case for Merriam- Webster, but I haven't directly dealt with them) you can even contribute to the process, by collating and sending them evidence of a new usage or a new word. There's a pretty regular influx of new usages and new words every year.

In saying the above I am not endorsing the new usage, but I think the lesson of King Canute applies here.
