The number of times people that have denied the literal dictionary definition of gender when I place it in front of them... with linked sources... from multiple dictionaries... often ones those people chose themselves...

Education about the definition of these words is important, but it does nothing to combat the mainstream conservative position that "the dictionary is wrong and woke because... idk - the Jews want them transes to rape babies or something." The only way to combat that entrenched, willful ignorance is with a big rock.
