No to simplify things… A Trans-woman needs to transition from a male to female to feel like they are the equivalent of a woman after modifications and medication. You’re welcome. Not all trans people have medical procedures done. Not all trans people take hormones. Not all trans people change their names. You’re actually not very good at simplifying things at all. Under your definition of sex, how do you classify people who are born with neither a penis or a vagina, the combination of the two, or those born with a penis but a female reproductive tract and vise versa? You should just come to terms with the fact that trans-women had to transition from being men or the term trans-woman wouldn’t exist. 🤭🙄 |

You should just come to terms with the fact that trans-women had to transition from being men or the term trans-woman wouldn’t exist. 🤭🙄 More dodged questions! I still don’t think I’ve ever denied what it means to be transGENDER. To spell it out for you: A person is born and assigned a sex at birth. Sex is made up of many components including external genitalia, chromosomes, hormones, and other factors (as someone who used the term biological a lot, you are quite wrong about sex). As they grow up, they develop a gender identity, which is one’s self-conviction of being a man, a woman, a blend, or neither. Everyone has a gender identity, which is not contingent upon their sex assigned at birth. However, with sex assigned at birth comes societal expectations on role, appearance, interests, etc. Under cissexism, male = man/masculinity, female = woman/femininity. These expectations are often prescribed on kids before they are born (think gender reveal parties) and enforced as a child grows (what happens when a boy plays with Barbies?). There are many whose gender identity does not align with societal expectations of their sex assigned at birth (which is conflated with gender). There are many ways that this can be outwardly expressed (gender expression). Some may identify as non-binary, meaning they don’t see themselves as completely man or woman. I’m not referring to feeling male or female, because that would be talking about sex. I mean that they do not feel that they fit neatly into the social expectations created by the binary of man and woman. Others may identify as transgender. The prefix trans means beyond or across. Trans can be an umbrella term that entails the gender binary (trans-man, trans-woman), but some non-binary people also claim trans (beyond as the prefix) as an identity as well. Within binary trans identities is what you have been describing. Someone assigned male at birth, having a self-conviction of being a woman (socially), and move across genders from what their sex assigned at birth is. Some, but not all, trans people undergo medical transition (surgery, hormone therapy) or social transition (going by a different name or pronouns) in order to live as their authentic selves. You, and a lot of others, have put a lot of emphasis on external genitals. You believe it is the sole definer of sex (you’re wrong) and that a 5 second glance of genitals should define how a person is socialized. That a person born with a vagina should want to play with dolls and like the color pink and wear rainbows and flowers, and that a person born with a penis should play in the mud and like bugs and football. All of those things are arbitrary and socially constructed. Gender is a performance of those arbitrary expectations. There have been many cultures historically that have recognized a third gender or gender beyond the binary. The land that is the United States lost touch to the non-binary gender under settler colonialism. Being trans or outside of the colonial gender binary is not new, and will never go away. |

I haven’t denied that claim once. Trans means across or beyond. So yes, transgender would be someone moving across or beyond the gender binary. I’m not sure what point you are trying to make, but I’m starting to think you don’t either. |

There’s no sense trying to explain something to people who don’t have any interest in learning or aren’t smart enough to capture new information that pushes them to think outside their world view.
Conservatism and cognitive ability are negatively correlated, per the scientific literature.

I think you’re just sensitive to the fact that people will not accept trans-women as equals to naturally born Women in woman’s volleyball and it bothers you. |

I wouldn’t do this for work every day if I was bothered by people being small-minded. And at the end of the day, the NCAA, IOC, USAV all have trans inclusive policies, regardless of how much you and others hate trans people. They’re already playing in NCAA. Tate wouldn’t be the first and she won’t be the last. I actually find a lot of joy in seeing others live their lives happy and healthy. I am sorry that you don’t feel the same. |

Conservatism and cognitive ability are negatively correlated, per the scientific literature. You know that scientific literature also exists that shows a negative correlation between progressivism and cognitive ability. There is also scientific literature showing correlation between progressivism and a variety of mental disorders. |

I've seen some of the studies that you are talking about and they seem to contain a lot of bias. The same might be true of the studies I've seen that are critical of progressives. That's the problem with scientific studies and leading experts. The studies are often not very scientific and the experts are merely advocates and activists who have no expertise. |

Nothing wrong with taking kids to pride parades. I took my cousin and my 11yr old niece to Honolulu Pride this year and they absolutely loved it. My niece told me she would love to go to next years parade. 🏳️🌈 Yeah, gotta groom them while they're young, right? Sexualizing children is horrifying. You should be in prison. Not sexualizing. 😑 you're an idiot. You should be in prison with your closeminded @$$%*!*. Grooming? That's what the catholic church is for. 😭😘 |
