Yeah but who cares about the facts?

@SparkleLeaf What is the difference between personality and gender to you and why are you so sexist that it's a problem if the sexist stereotypes don't match?

@WhyThooo It's not so much a difference between them as it is that they are different things. It's like asking, "What's the difference between a dog and the wind to you?"


Personality, put simply, is the combination of characteristics or qualities that form an individual's distinctive character.

Gender is a made-up construct and can be different things. It' generally means socially constructed roles, behaviors, expressions and identities. How I'm using it here refers to how people perceive themselves and each other, how they act and interact. Gender identity is not confined to a binary (girl/woman, boy/man) nor is it static; it exists along a continuum and can change over time. There is considerable diversity in how individuals and groups understand, experience and express gender through the roles they take on, the expectations placed on them, relations with others and the complex ways that gender is institutionalized in society.

As to the rest, what are you even talking about?

@jehova Based on your username I've been trying to decide whether to continue interacting with you. The answer was simpler than I was making it. I just need to tell you that I was a Witness and I disassociated. If you don't care about that, or just don't know what it means, that's great and here we go:

Not only does what you said here not answer the question, it doesn't really answer anything.

Even proceeding from the assumption (which you have not stated) that being trans isn't even a real thing: If Rick wants to wear girl clothes and go by she/her pronouns and the name Tammy, what possible harm could there be in his parents letting him do that? If later on Rick/Tammy wants to use hormone therapy to delay puberty, that is a matter among him, his parents, and the doctor. WTF business is it of the government to come in and say he can't do that?

@SparkleLeaf completely agree i do wonder about minimum age for such a decision. But isnt that where the parental part comes into play?
