Sex trouble: Sex/gender slippage, sex confusion, and sex obsession in machine learning using electronic health records
2022, PatternsCitation Excerpt :Despite the complexities of sex and gender, the false assumptions of binary, static, and concordant sex/gender are deeply ingrained in our medical system.23,33,54,55 This negatively impacts not just transgender and intersex people but also fails to serve anyone who doesn’t exactly fit the average.56–58 We have coined three terms that further articulate the false assumptions and their implications in the medical system: sex/gender slippage, sex confusion, and sex obsession.
