There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****[W:67]

Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

There was this micro history I once read probably a decade ago. It took place in a small town in early America. Someone, ordinarily perceived as male or female, I forgot which, was adament that they were the other or something else entirely. One would think that would be the end of it.

But no. They brought this person into court to demand a concrete answer, under penalty of law. They spent many resources trying to demand an answer that satisfied the public from this person. They just couldn't stand not knowing or not agreeing with what they saw. They ended up locking this person up, I think.

The reason why I bring this up is, it's rather odd how much energy people expend on this issue, don't you think? Like you, in general you, feel the compulsion to categorize someone and if that individual doesn't feel like they want to go into that box, you have a this completely disproportionate hissy fit over it.

I see your point but disagree. if you're born with a penis you are male, with a vagina a female. As mentioned by others, do whatever the hell you want with your life, but don't visit it on me. In other words, if you have a vagina, use the ladies room, a penis, use the mens room.

But that's sex. That's a biological construct, and different from gender identity, which is a sociological construct that looks not just our physical makeup, but also our assumed roles, societial expectations, and the like.

I am analytical as anyone, but I hate this "there are only 2 genders" thing because the difference between sex andd gender, what they entail, what they cover, are quite well defined - and this thinking confuses sex, a biological construct, and gender - sociological construct... on top of the "300,000 genders" thing, who really believes that, because as much as I have seen people talk about fluidity, I've never seen people talk about it being so fluid that there are literally, in anyone's mind, that many - that just sounds like exaggerations that have been taken as gospel in certain circles, and is a bit ridiculous.

How many 'legitimate' genders are there then?
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

I'm sorry folks there are only 2 genders. The rest are fake. There is no choice, you either feel one gender or not.

You mad bro?

Why do you care what someone else thinks of themselves? If some one born male wants to wear a dress and to called Lucy, what harm does it do me to respect his/her wishes?

You guys claim to be about freedom but you're always trying to restrict the freedoms of others who don't agree with you. Nobody cares what you think. Why do people have to live their lives according to what you believe? I just don't get this.
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

No I said, you can only feel one of the TWO genders in this world. You can only feel Male or you can only feel Female.

I feel male but have been known to feel a female or two.

Sorry about that... Couldn't resist. But assuming the validity of your statement, what should we as a society do/continue to do/not do?
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

Does the word "gender" even have any meaning any more?

Assertion is not an argument.

Even from a biological basis, what you're saying is not actually correct. The biology of humans is predominantly male or female, but there are also biological exceptions which we now call intersex (e.g. hermaphrodites, epicene, transgender). There are also those who prefer to identify with a gender that does not match their biological sex at birth.

In terms of "what people feel," there is no question that the answer is much more complex than "you feel one or the other." Humans are stunningly complex when it comes to this sort of thing, and the idea that people do not feel what they think they feel because of your ideology just doesn't add up.


The nature innate sense of oneself. Not a choice and just something people can make up. 99% of the population identifies with their birth sex. Only 1.4 million people are trans in this country. But no, sex isn't different from gender at all.
1.4 million is a lot of people. That's greater than the population of Maine, the 41st most populous state in the US.

There should be no question that people certainly can choose how they feel about something like gender. It's also quite clear that different societies have very different ideas about gender, even though the biological conditions are essentially the same.

Moreover, the whole idea that there could possibly be two perfectly defined categories that all 7 billion human beings can neatly be categorized into is idiotic.

I like debating issues but with most conservatives here, it's just arguing against willful ignorance.

Do we assign any other genders besides male and female to the remainder of the animal kingdom?

Yes. We just understand it's not quite so binary now.

Well, by "we" I mean people who bothered to read the details of this sort of thing.
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

How do you define gender? Remember, it has a different meaning than sex.

No it doesn't,you're either Male or Female.
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

No it doesn't,you're either Male or Female.

Go look up sex and gender in an encyclopedia or medical book. You and I don’t get to decide what words mean. Your chromosomes determine your sex. Gender is a cultural construct and does vary from culture to culture.

Sorry,I will never buy that,gender nonsense.

If you're feminine as Hell,but Male sex,you're still a man.
And visa-versa
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

The word gender used to primarily directly relate to one's sex, related to how masculine or feminine a person was. The word was co-opted by the feminist movement in the United States and other nations to transition(no pun intended) towards a discussion of gender roles. Anyone that states differently is dishonest about the word or is simply ignorant.

That is fine. Of course medical and scientific definitions don’t require that you “buy” them. They just are.

What's your point? Even if they're a tiny minority they still should be allowed the same freedom to pursue happiness that everyone has.

The idea that billions of people neatly fit into just two categories is absurd.

Are these the same medical people that mutilate a human body,so you can pretend you're Kaitlin,when the reality is you're Bruce!
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

No why I have a problem with this is b/c liberals keep teaching kids this crap and brainwashing them to not be one sex or the other. They're confusing kids more on what they identify. Its unnecessarily complicated.

How ridged in thinking, You do know other cultures identified more genders. But, .. do feel free to feel anything you want.
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

Science has discovered chromosomes.
The sex determining chromosome pair are either XX (female) or XY (male).
Biologically, you are either one or the other. There are no other alternatives.

Now, whatever you want to do with yourself behind closed door, fine. No on has a right to question what you do in private.

Don't impose on anyone else.

Given all this, we'll get along just fine.

My God! Against all available evidence, eohrnberger has just proved chromosomal disorders don't exist!

Why? Most people in this world identify with the TWO sexes. A very small amount feel different. A tomboy is a girl who acts more boy-like, but she still identifies as a girl. There are feminine men who still identify as men.
 
Re: There are ONLY 2 genders. All the rest is SJW brainwashing bull****

Thats weird. Delusional I guess.

Not really. It's a yin and yang thing, the duality of all life.

Wow. Brilliant deduction! :roll:

Around 3 million Americans have epilepsy. Does that small number mean that it's not real? After all, the vast majority of Americans don't have epilepsy.

Thats not my point. What I'm saying is that the Left makes a big deal out of trans people all the time.
