Welcome to Breakpoint, a daily look, and an ever-changing culture through the lens of unchanging truth.

For the Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street.

According to the Daily Mail, some scientists may have found evidence of the first non-binary person.

And I quote, Stone Age societies embraced complex identities and flexible gender roles, experts have revealed,

after unearthing the skeleton of a woman who was buried like a man seven thousand years ago.

Studies of 125 skeletons across several cemeteries in Hungary have found that while the

majority of people were buried according to their gender, some defied the norm."

Since people who lived a thousand years before Abraham didn't post their pronouns on social media,

we'll just have to trust this research article published in the American Journal of Biological Anthropology

under this title. Fixed and fluid, the two faces of gender roles, a combined

study of activity patterns and burial practices in the European Neolithic. The gist of the article is that

back then, men tended to be buried in one way and women in another. However, a few unearthed skeletons

don't quite fit the burial pattern.

Also, the bones of some of the women showed evidence of consistent kneeling in life,

a practice that is more associated with men from that time.

And so, in the absence of any real biological, genetic, or developmental science to support transgender ideology, these researchers are finding a way to inject

it into paleontology. After all, who needs evidence when you can rely on a newspaper to make a just-so

claim that these findings, and I quote, could shed a whole new light on gender fluidity in the

Neolithic. It's all common practice in the evolving

field of evolutionary psychology. Of course, the most obvious irony here is that the claims of the

research are based on examining skeletons that are known to be male and female, which shows that

the researchers know perfectly well the difference between them. Within all cultures are norms of masculinity and
