You either are or you aren’t. To be or not to be.
One may pretend to be female, but he is never truly.
The entire “gender spectrum” play is derived from a combination of mental gymnastics and pseudoscience.
It is a lie that he has told himself a thousand times over, just to ensure that he won’t doubt himself,
Not really
People express themselves in different ways
People have different notions of "self"
That doesn’t make them not male or female
You cannot escape your true self, no matter how much you pretend to be someone else.
You cannot change your sex through any mechanics. End of story,
In terms of sex, sure
But we're not talking about sex, Mongol
Neither in gender.
"Gender" refers to identity, to self-identification, to expression, to perception
Gender is a product of capitalism to sell us shit and fight communism

Gender was made by bathroom companies to sell more bathrooms
Somewhat based
I need to sleep. Goodnight.
Gender existed before capitalism but okay
BECAUSE IT DOESN’T EXIST HAHA
(It does)
As countless studies have proven
Everyone's a tidbit bi
Some moreso than others
Not really, that’s just a bunch of flamboyant personalities or “quirks” claiming to be unique by attempting to subscribe to some niche psychology that has neither received scientific verification nor recognition.
Literally just used to sell us shit
Enkrum, gender is defined by society
Inherently, sure, it's just personality, it's just self-expression in some manner
But as society has determined the gender of certain clothes, activites, etc.
It's thus part of gender expression
- which largely, if not entirely, derives from and correlated to biological sex.
That’s about on par with neglecting the genetic aspect composing a 60% influence in socioeconomic factors.
Do you consider someone wearing lipstick, a dress, with a lovely manicure done, going shopping as masculine as someone with... I don't know, a battleaxe aloft over their head, wearing nothing but the furs of animals they've personally hunted and wrestled, @Deleted User ?
(The answer is no)
You're recognizing gender expression in that moment
You're recognizing gender
Generally, expression and identity correlate, unless an individual is suppressing themselves, in which case, there might be a departure
But, in a Hagelian way, we seek to make others view us as we view ourselves
