Occasionally states incorrect facts on its website. Some information on the site are factually wrong, such that there are more than 2 genders for the human race(1). What's worse is that the site not only displays incorrect information, but attacks the truth as "phony science". This site should not be used as a sole source of facts. Ensure that any facts here are corroborated by other, trustworthy sources. 1: https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/voices/stop-using-phony-science-to-justify-transphobia/

Online version of one of the absolutely best science coverage magazines. I've been a reader for over 50 years. Gold standard science, and when controversial areas are dealt with, to my thinking, those areas are handled rationally, with truth in balance.
