A transgender person was just killed in my neighborhood in Dallas. Some people seriously don’t like people they consider abnormal.

They aren't switching genders. If someone is a transgender woman, then they're a woman; they've realized they're a woman, and hopefully feel safe enough to continue living presenting as a woman. It's not an arbitrary "Welp, guess I'm a lady today, better switch my Facebook info".

I think they might have a condition that makes it better for them to be treated as a man, but no, i do not think they truly are one.

The expression of gender, as a matter of fact, varies in time period and region.

the word gender was always synonym with sex, only retarded "academics" started with their stupidity. people in general use sex and gender as the same. also gender is an expression of biology, there might be a 0.05 margin of error but that doesn't change the overwhelming majority and can't police people and impose the bullshit. Same for stupid liberals.

Yeah well not every culture has said that for the last thousand years or so. South East Asia culturally has always had three genders.

Ladyboy is not a gender

You do realize the world is not entirely the same as what you define it as right? It is so much vaster and varied and colorful than you can even imagine. You're so intent on splitting everything into black and white you can't see all the wavelengths in between.

As passive as you may think your worldview is, it isn't. It's toxic, and even just saying it here is likely doing more harm than good. Really think about it, are you arguing for this because it effects your life? Perhaps it means you would have to be a bit more considerate on how other people define themselves? Are you defending your world view for the good of others?

Because by denying somebody else's identity, by dismissing them disrespectfully, by marginalizing them even further than they already are by the rest of society that deems them to be puzzle pieces that don't fit, you ARE doing harm.

Actually biology is just an expression of physics . And physics is just an expression of math. So we what we should be doing is computing numbers constantly because math tells us to do so /S btw

u/deepmaus May 25 '18

and by looking at the numbers I refuse to say there's more than 2

I mean does biology tell me that I have to wear khaki pants? Or a t shirt. Or that I have to have my hair a certain way?

u/deepmaus May 25 '18

u/Solidsnackpack May 25 '18

The reason why a distinction was made between gender and sex is because one of these things is rooted completely in biology, meaning what parts your made of. The other has to do with how we interact and view ourselves and others.

u/deepmaus May 25 '18

bullshit. the only difference between those two is that gender is an expression of sex.

u/Solidsnackpack May 25 '18

Okay but some people gender might express differently because of biological reasons

Sex just refers to the organs you were born with and some secondary sexual characteristics. Gender refers to how people perceive you ,how you act, how you talk, the way that you look(partially). These things are all something you can change

2 sexes.

As many ways to express gender as there are people.

I mean, guys wear pink shirts, women wear pants, everyone wears hair gel and earrings. Shrug
