Thanks. When I was thinking about this post and considered sex as an example, I had intended to elaborate by saying how it could e.g. cause counterproductive attitudes to intersex people, and that these attitudes would update slowly due to the binary view of sex being very strongly trained into the way we think. I just outright forgot to put that in! I endorse Adele's response.
