NBC's Chuck Todd clashes with Vivek Ramaswamy over gender binary: 'Do you know this as a scientist?'
Fox News
Chuck Todd clashed with presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy over whether gender is binary with the NBC host insisting "there is a lot of scientific research that says gender is a spectrum."
"So, I think it is perfectly reasonable to say that if you're after 18 years old, you're free to decide whatever you want to do. That's what it means to live in a free country," Ramaswamy continued. "But below the age of 18, I think it's perfectly legitimate to say that we won't allow genital mutilation or chemical castration through puberty blockers."

The NBC News host asked, "Are you confident that you know that gender is as binary as you're describing it? Are you confident that it isn't a spectrum?"
