    I think a lot of these XX XY “only two genders” people aren’t just dunning Kruger, they’re transphobic idiots with an agenda. So even if they had the science and knowledge it wouldn’t matter because they’re pushing their hateful stupid agenda, facts and logic be damned. They don’t care, they just want to rationalize hating us trans people because we make them uncomfy.

      Tell us what the 3rd gender is please.

      ~95% of all animals in the world, including humans, are gonochoric, have only 2 sexes.

      Turner syndrome and klinfelter syndrome are exatly that, syndromes

        Gender is not sex. Have you ever, in good faith, talked to a trans person? Have you ever, in good faith, talked to an intersex person?

          I keep hearing this. If gender is not sex than gender is not real, you can be whatever you want whenever you want, right?

          Still, if a dudes is a dude it’s a he, if a woman is a woman it’s a she.

          The only time I would actually bother ask someone what they like to be called is if they have an intersex condition. That’s it.

          Have you ever, in good faith, talked to a trans person?

          Yes, it was the exactly stereotypical “call me mam” hairy dude. Yeah, that’s never gonna happen. First time in my life I told someone to never talk with me and pretend I don’t exist. I don’t want to interact with these kind of lunatics.

          Have you ever, in good faith, talked to an intersex person?

          No but I would love too, that seems genuinely interesting. I’d have so many questions to ask

            How does “you can chose” make something not real? Also, it doesn’t appear to be a conscious effort to be trans. Do you really think trans people go through all that just for the fun of it?

            Still, if a dudes is a dude it’s a he, if a woman is a woman it’s a she.

            And if a women is not a woman and starts HRT and everything, he’s a dude. You’re exactly right!

            The only time I would actually bother ask someone what they like to be called is if they have an intersex condition. That’s it.

            Can you tell that just by looking at people?

            Yes, it was the exactly stereotypical “call me mam” hairy dude.

            What if it was someone who visually fit in your expectation? Would you treat them with basic respect? Can you tell me the sex of each of those people?

            No but I would love too, that seems genuinely interesting. I’d have so many questions to ask

            Wouldn’t it be interesting to talk to a trans person, too? Understand their perspective? Maybe you already met someone intersex but called them slurs and walked off because you thought they might be trans.

            Your baseless hate for trans people only brings evil into this world. Maybe try giving people a chance. We’re all human.

              Do you really think trans people go through all that just for the fun of it? I honestly think they have mental problems that won’t be solved by mutilating themselves. It’s not me to make that decision for them and it’s their body but I try to keep myself as far away as possible.

              And if a women is not a woman and starts HRT and everything, he’s a dude.

              What do you mean a woman is not a woman?

              Can you tell that just by looking at people?

              Most likely not, but by interacting with people, yes.

              Can you tell me the sex of each of those people?

              Only from faces? Most likely not. First pic looks like a woman, second like a man, 3rd pic that dude might be a woman, 4th the dude is a woman and 5th I have no damn idea

              called them slurs

              I don’t call people slurs mate, I just avoid interaction.

      I would honestly be very surprised if any Republican politicians actually care about sex or gender. I think they’re just evil and those are convenient issues to divide the working class. When you don’t have popular policy in real issues, you need to make up some fake ones to get people to still support you.

        The current moral panic about queer people is definitely manufactured, but the hatred that it’s stirred up is still real. All the religious psychos in power (including Speaker of the House Mike Johnson) really believe that stuff and want to enforce their hierarchy.

      Is there some third gender that trans people can transition to that I’m unaware of? I’m afraid I don’t follow the whole situation all too well sorry. My partner has some transgender family members, but i’ve never i’ve seen anyone that isn’t male to female or female to male. I guess non binary exists, but doesn’t that mean no gender or both?

      I’m afraid I don’t know much on the subject It’s unfortunate.

        Fear not I, a still rather confused individual, but with slightly more knowledge on the topic shall answer thy call (I seem to suffer from the curse referred to as “being genderfluid” by the scholars of that gender stuff)!

        Somebody who is non-binary is just someone who does not feel like they are entirely male or female. This can mean that they are both, neither or a different gender not connected to either but also not entirely absent or of course any combination of the previous examples.

        In my case (genderfluid) I just flop around on the gender spectrum, mostly not having a gender or feeling a bit feminine but sometimes I do feel male or like some other gender. Though genderfluid just means that the persons gender changes over time, it doesn’t have to be the same genders that I experience.

        Hope this helps :)

        You’re confusing sex with gender. Both are a spectrum but sex is a biological spectrum of sexual organs in a living creature and gender is a quality, projection and performance of a person that also lands on a spectrum.

        The confusion is because they both use male and female but sex and gender are different things. Gender can change throughout a person’s life. A person’s sex is consistent throughout life and can’t be changed. A person’s gender can’t change their sex. Sex also isn’t as simple as xx is female and xy is male, there’s a whole bunch of things that can’t put a person in one, both, or none of those categories. Gender is even more complicated.

        The current doctrine is that there are unlimited genders, if you can think of one you can call yourself that, they call them “neopronouns” and aren’t simply relegated to xe/xer but include things like wolfkin and dragonfucker. There’s also plurals which to the best of my understanding feel like there’s multiple people usually with multiple neopronouns inside their head simultaneously.

        I’m not either of these so maybe someone who is can elaborate better, but that’s what I’ve been told and I hope it helps.

      Exactly. They just don’t care. They’re not necessarily ignorant and participating in good faith.

        They’re guaranteed to not be participating in good faith if they’re angrily debating sex and gender like that.
