In the above footage, Biden is also seen making physical contact with one of the students in the crowd. At this time, the former vice president has still not explained why he believes there are three genders, instead of two.
Controversy Over Gender in Society
Americans have recently engaged in discussions about gender in society. Various individuals, particularly those on the left, believe and maintain that there are more than two genders.
Some of the genders which progressives believe exist include intersex, agender, gender fluid, and others. This liberal perception of gender has faced pushback; conservatives regularly note the scientific evidence behind the assertion of only two genders.
