Ben Shapiro vs Neil deGrasse Tyson: The WAR Over Transgender Issues

[Belacqua]

I doubt that Dawkins's views are similar to Shapiro's

Both Dawkins and Shapiro want scientific standards by which to judge whether a person is male or female. In this their views are similar. 

It's very likely that their motivation for reaching these views are different. But people may have different motivations for reaching identical views -- whether these views are true or false. 

why would I even care?"

Since we're making guesses about other people's opinions here, I'll hazard a wild guess: I think that Dawkins would say he cares about the question because some things are true and some things are false, and we should care to believe only true things. Even if this is not what some people want. 

We should have logical arguments for what we believe, and not just punt because we want it to be a certain way.
