Yet another great example for the "Information Organization" class: Scientists are instructed to enter the '*sex' of an organism for NCBI BioSample database. Oh, if only it were that simple.

An excel spreadsheet with the attribute "*sex" defined as "physical sex of sampled organism."

The current administration is straight up censoring the scientific record by requiring authors to alter an already-accepted research paper because it uses banned words such as "gender" and "equitable" and presents data broken down by sexual orientation.
