and all of use agreed sex is binary and that is not the definition we are examining. Different group of people have different definitions for words. even the US has its own variations on language. Coke can mean either the cola drink from coka-cola, just be a generic name for cola, or a generic name for soda.
if you suggest scientific and well defined categories, I might be temped to agree
Or the drug, cocaine.
yes, but that stays pretty constant across the US
your point being?
gender's definition was always tied to sex. If we want (let's assume) to redefine it, do it properly at least
otherwise we can just drop "gender" and just use "sex"
Pretty much.
Point being, you are talking about soda and we are talking about a specific soda. This is why i asked you not to confuse the specific definitions we are agreed upon for this discussion. Arch already state that sex is binary and gender =/= sex. Because i was interested in his views, i've been using his definition.
ill be back in a bit, need to eat
my point is simple, if gender != sex, define it in a way that is useful for society
otherwise the use of the word becomes irrelevant
well, that is what i was trying to figure out
we are in sync then
yes. which is what i was saying earlier
what would be the evolution of the word? where do you think this will go?
i was trying to figure out what Arch thought they (the left) referred to since he said he doesn't think gender exists despite saying sex exists.
clearly he must have some concept of it to stay it doesn't exist.
>that will translate into an effect on psychology and also evolutionary psychology
>the only thing gender means to me that makes sense is for it to mean social and psychological sexual characteristics
"sexual characteristics" as in physical only?
that would be useful 🤔
i think, in that statement, psychological characteristics refers to parts of people personalities that seem prone to being affected by your sex hormone levels, and then that translates into social sphere.
that would mean gender changes
which would make the word useless
if that is gender, then it is not binary. However, it would, i agree, be useless as that there would be as many potential genders as there are individuals on earth. that seems to be where we are going, as tim pointed out in that video about the 31+ genders.
idk why people started to define their identity on the gender category
because people are dumb on average
your identity is your identity
it is not gender
also, your identity isn't defined uniquely by sexual characteristics
trying to define your "sexual characteristics", both physical and phychological all into a category is, well.. retarded
this would be why anyone not alt-left calls them stupid
it will destroy the word "gender", and that's it
that seems to be all SJWs are good at, destroying things
And yelling at the sky.
they never want to make anything new, just destroy was already here
Or change something that already exists.
but if we agree it is stupid, why are you going along with it?
It's just talking to someone on their terms/for the sake of argument.
