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?

2021-01-08 09:09:51 UTC  

sex isn't changeable

2021-01-08 09:09:52 UTC  

No matter where you are from or who you are youll be hated for no reason.

2021-01-08 09:10:02 UTC  

Doesn't matter what you believe in or what you think.

2021-01-08 09:10:16 UTC  

practically it is, but no, nobody is claiming we can change people's chromosomes

2021-01-08 09:10:29 UTC  

The people that are happy in life understand they can't change that and they live how they are.

2021-01-08 09:10:46 UTC  

the issue there is that you can change your gender and practical sex

2021-01-08 09:10:51 UTC  

people do it

2021-01-08 09:10:51 UTC  

You want trans people to not kill themselves? Then you put them in therapy to fix their imbalance

2021-01-08 09:11:38 UTC  

again, the issue is suicide caused by prevention of treatment

2021-01-08 09:11:54 UTC  

^ Therapy is treatment.

2021-01-08 09:12:06 UTC  

no therapy has been shown to be able to "cure" trans people of their dysphoria/dysmorphia

2021-01-08 09:12:11 UTC  

Therapy to accept oneself

2021-01-08 09:12:27 UTC  

if we had therapy to cure it, people would do it
