Ann Fausto-Sterling

Ann Fausto-Sterling is a distinguished scholar in biology and gender studies who explores how biological sex is more complex than just male or female. She examines how genetics, anatomy, and hormones intermingle to create a spectrum of human bodies, challenging traditional binary views. Her work emphasizes the importance of understanding biological diversity and reconsidering societal definitions of gender and sex, advocating for a more inclusive perspective that recognizes intersex variations and the nuanced ways human biology develops.
