Speaking of intersex people, it seems like the op did something to offend this dude.

2021-01-08 09:02:32 UTC  

none of that discredits the post

2021-01-08 09:02:42 UTC  

Didn't say it does.

2021-01-08 09:02:54 UTC  

then what was the point of bringing it up?

2021-01-08 09:03:23 UTC  

Intersex is a mutation in the chromosomes of X or Y

2021-01-08 09:03:38 UTC  

I'm curious about how conflict regarding pronouns comes about, and if it's something worth taking a breath on to even mention.

2021-01-08 09:04:58 UTC  

it began because you said the idea of more than 2 genders is "biologically incorrect"

2021-01-08 09:05:06 UTC  

As Steven Crowder put it, you can't legislate or reasonably defend protecting pronouns beneath any legal oversight. How do you control the abstract? The infinite?

2021-01-08 09:05:09 UTC  

when gender is not inherently tied to sex

2021-01-08 09:05:14 UTC  

simple

2021-01-08 09:05:19 UTC  

add a 3rd category

2021-01-08 09:05:25 UTC  

non-binary

2021-01-08 09:05:26 UTC  

that is all

2021-01-08 09:05:27 UTC  

Ah, but when that isn't enough

2021-01-08 09:05:29 UTC  

Gender may not be, however language is.

2021-01-08 09:05:33 UTC  

Gender would be a constructed reality in your psyche

2021-01-08 09:05:40 UTC  

that is what it is

2021-01-08 09:05:46 UTC  

That's a social aspect that you cannot force people to change.

2021-01-08 09:05:59 UTC  

How many genders exist

2021-01-08 09:06:00 UTC  

Gender will 99% of the time be connected to your sex unless you've mutated and have an imbalance

2021-01-08 09:06:11 UTC  

see, issue with that is that most people recognize the fact that gender is not strictly binary

2021-01-08 09:06:24 UTC  

also, it doesn't matter

2021-01-08 09:06:34 UTC  

It does matter

2021-01-08 09:06:37 UTC  

why?

2021-01-08 09:06:43 UTC  

Even then, why try and change a system that is inclusive of the overwhelming majority of people?

2021-01-08 09:07:10 UTC  

because it's exclusive of a portion of the population, no matter how small that portion may be

2021-01-08 09:07:15 UTC  

It matters when that small minority is killing itself because it thinks the imbalance is normal

2021-01-08 09:07:18 UTC  

although, it's not super tiny or anything

2021-01-08 09:08:14 UTC  

also, most trans suicides are due to people not being accepting

2021-01-08 09:08:18 UTC  

When intersex/trans people stop killing themselves because they can't live with who they are then maybe you can make a case

2021-01-08 09:08:22 UTC  

This is no different from getting an overwhelming majority of people to learn and abide by a small minority's customs.

2021-01-08 09:08:25 UTC  

They can't accept themselves

2021-01-08 09:08:28 UTC  

Thats the problem

2021-01-08 09:08:34 UTC  

>It isn't feasible and never will be.

2021-01-08 09:08:53 UTC  

they can, that is what being transgender is, it is about accepting yourself, the issue is the prevention of said acceptance

2021-01-08 09:09:15 UTC  

that is the reason their suicide rates are so high

2021-01-08 09:09:15 UTC  

If you were to accept yourself youd stay what you were born as

2021-01-08 09:09:23 UTC  

that isn't feasible

2021-01-08 09:09:28 UTC  

Not what you perceived yourself to be

2021-01-08 09:09:39 UTC  

Since gender is magically not tied to sex now, is gender changeable but sex isn't?
