If you ask me, masculine/feminine is a spectrum, male/female is a binary
but what the **** do I know, not a lot, trust me

You think this is a mother ******* game!?

the difference between gender and sex. i am willing to accept whatever ******** sjw and tumblr creates in it's hug box as long as they don't push it on other people. but they do so **** em

I think that if people need to identify themselves as something out of the norm to be more comfortable in their OWN skin then let them. That being said, as soon as that becomes preachy or that person is just totally seeking attention then their ideals lose a lot of impact with me. I know a good few people who properly struggle with gender identity and, especially at a young age, that can become very stressful and confusing. These people have only ever told me in confidence and have never drawn attention to it unless they take procedures to look more like another gender. That being said, I've met plenty of other people who change their names, sexual identity, gender, etc like every other month to stir conversation about them. They then also have the audacity to scram and yell for people to accept them. These people give individuals with proper struggles a bad rap.

TLR If you identify as something to feel good then you do you. If you show boat that **** , **** off.

Okay OP, here's how I view it all. Some of it may be over-simplified and be a little opinionated, but I think it's a pretty reasonable guideline.

The gender section is definitely the trickiest. I think there's a distinct difference between gender roles and mental gender identification that people don't get. People are thinking "Hey, I'm a girl, but I like blue more than pink. That must mean I have the brain of a male!" because they are confusing stereotypes with actual gender dysphoria. That's what's leading people to believe that it doesn't exist, but there really isn't any doubt scientifically that it does; with even some physical differences in brain configuration among transgenders. I think calling it a mental illness will get rid of doubters and help get medical coverage for the help that they need.

The other confusing bit is people are making up tons of sexual orientations. But the four in the image are the basic ones that cover everything. For example pansexual is just a subset of bisexual, because they can be attracted to males and females. But I'd argue that doesn't matter because it's SEXuality, which means it should depend on the physical sex of the person you are looking at. If gender mattered for sexuality, then there would be 100+ different combinations and terms. Like there would be a specific term for a male who was attracted to females who identify as both a male and female. But that'd just be a subset of somebody who was straight.

A boy is a boy. Being a boy means you have a dick.
A girl is a girl. Being a girl means you have a vagina.
If you think otherwise you have a mental disorder.

Everything else is leftist quackery.

What Is Your Gender?

Male

Female

Retarded

basing things biologically, intersexuals most certainly exist... genetics aren't perfect, and it's actually quite common for humans to be born with ambiguous genitalia, or even incorrect X/Y chromosome patterns.

I ain't defending the ridiculous kinda "special snowflake" made-up gender identities, but to say sex is limited to only "female" and "male" is just as wrong

I don't care what you do. You could throw darts at a wheel to determine your gender everyday and I wouldn't give damn.

What I do get annoyed at is when they expect special snowflake treatment and everyone around them treats them like they **** gold.

I'm going to treat them like a human, with complete apathy to their gender, sex or race and laughing when one of them says I have to call them some ******** pronoun

The only people who are not getting this is America. And they're spreading their cancer around the world like some instragram whore looking for someone to compliment her new socks while if you're actually giving cristicism you're an inconsidered autismo faggot monster

All these wrong opinions of a word with a very clear definition.

Gender -the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones).

but since we we're "blessed" with such a culturally rich society we have to deal with **** like this, honestly if a paper says anything about gender its always going to be
the biological meaning, so stop with your spectrum of autism.
