Once again I ask: what's the big deal about gender?

People fear what they don’t understand.

@SW-User
I don't believe I am, I believe I am demonstrating the hypocrisy and double standards that are being promoted along with transgender rights.


While I agree with this, I disagree with your earlier point that offense is decided collectively. That's simply not true. People can decide what is offensive individually. You don't personally have to agree on that offense, but you can't determine what an individual finds offensive.


Hm, no sorry that is incorrect. People who don't have Black ancestry can and do claim they are black, as others will claim White or Native American heritage. The issue isn't claiming the identity, it's using it to gain special status and privilege in American society. That's what Rachel Dolenzal did. Had she just gone around just claiming she was black, nobody would have cared, but she had gotten scholarships and been elected or appointed to some role within the NAACP and that was the issue that got her sanctioned, not her actual claim of Black identity.


It isn't to me, because my only experience with it up to this point is to be labeled that by angry and belligerent trans activists who don't' care for my opinions, my age, my gender identity or my race.



Well reasonably, there already exists terms for me...man...male...why is the term cis gendered even needed?


Hey, that's fine. Why does that fact mean I have to have my identity foisted upon me by a small minority of approximately 2% (at best) of the population?


No they don't. But I have noted, again and again that trans activists and their allies desperately want to overlook that.

Your initial question was along the lines as to why people who aren't trans are so unreasonable about this issue:
I think this conversation is a great demonstration as to why.

I made a very valid, personal and reasonable explanation as to why I don't like to be called "cis gendered". You have argued with me on this point, argued with me that I don't get to chose what is offensive to me or my kind, argued with me about how my personal feelings aren't valid, and have made a massive hypocritical statement by saying that I should accept the label cis-genered because that's what is convenient for trans people, and apparently because they exist, I should just accept all this.

I would think this conversation is a great learning tool as to why there might be a significant difference of opinion, but also why you were blocked.

Who wants to talk to someone who can't even acknowledge basic human requests for how to be referred to or identified as? You seemingly want to argue that because trans people exist, and they need a word that helps them identify in the world, we should all accept that worldview and accept the label they want to apply to us.

Yet, the entire crux of trans people grievances is being forced to use labels that they don't feel properly identify them, they want their own way of identifying....yet they then want to turn around and demand a label for everyone else? And we have to accept that?

This is the reason why you aren't taken seriously.

Because you don't want tolerance. You want validation, you want celebration of your choices, and you want to foist those choices on the rest of us.

I'll tackle this one.


Not everyone agrees, and acting like there is no valid contradicting point to that is childish and stubborn. Who wants to "debate" someone who isn't even interested in hearing or considering a different viewpoint?



Speaking for myself, it doesn't at all. However, what I have noted is that transgender activists and their allies insist on promoting their worldview on others. They insist on using the term "cis-gendered" to describe others unlike them. This is just as derogatory, divisive and intolerant as they want to claim anti-transgender propaganda is to them.

It's hypocritical and a double standard. Tolerance goes both ways. If you want respect, give respect.

lmao I got blocked just for fact #1, conservatives are so damn sensitive about sex.

If this is about transgender or peoples' desire to use different pronouns, get this -

Some people out there cannot even respect others' medical decisions with things like abortion or vaccinations, let alone do anything outside gender norms.

As long as you don’t call me anything to do with me being male idc what general pronouns you call me

Im a dude who likes dudes that's all I know. And I prefer an unconvincing drag queen over a convincing one for some reason. People can do what they want imo. But don't expect me not to stare if I find you look interesting lolz

I hate to say it but acceptance hinges on understanding and some people just can't for whatever reason. They blocked you because they can't answer why it's so aggravating for them, it's aggravating because they can't understand, much like how a child may have a temper tantrum.

Theres intersex,too..thats Science Gender is a psychological coontinuum

Nobody but the person who blocked you can explain why they did so.

Only pussies block people BECAUSE they can't handle the truth it's a "big deal" to have to face the facts which you present - to sum up only the Y CHROMOSOME makes a male

Such elegant logic.

Unless something goes wrong, a person is either a woman or a man. Pure and simple.

Unless something goes wrong, a man can be attracted to a woman or a man (or both). And same for a woman.

there are 2 genders .
and a whole series of narcisism...

For the same reason people who think there are only 2 genders get under others' skin (as well as get blocked)

I think the gender issue is wacko, but I don’t support how Republicans are dealing with it.

I don’t think it’s a big deal but many people do. It’s too bad more people can’t be open.
