This one has already been submitted, but I feel that it needs to be resubmitted with the following fact:

When this chapter of the manga originally came out, The Sixth Sense was just airing in Japanese theaters. With Araki being big into western media he had already seen it, but most of Japan had not.

Jolyne didn’t just spoil the movie for the people watching it in the manga, she spoiled it for every JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure reader who had yet to go see it. Which would have been god knows how many people.

Fucking Jolyne.

I want to note that the way the sex binary looks like it’s present throughout the animal world is that white scientists have a terrible habit of labeling everything “male” or “female” even when it makes no sense.

Like, by any reasonable metric, bees have three sexes: drone, queen, and worker. Workers are only labelled female because someone couldn’t abide the idea of something not being either one or the other.

And before someone calls “genetics” there are many species where both sexes have the exact same genetics, and even many where individuals can change reproductive capacity at will, and scientists suddenly have no problem calling the ones who grow eggs “female” even though they were “male” two weeks ago.

Some species of mammals reproduce asexually. They have only one sex. It is still called “female” because it makes babies even though one might reasonably ask why even make the distinction when every single individual makes babies just the same.
