There's male and female. Transgendered people typically identify as a specific gender, so I wouldn't call trans a type of gender. There's also gender fluid, but that is just focused on the male and female genders, so again, I wouldn't call that a gender itself. I guess you also have those who don't identify with a gender, removing the construct altogether.

So yeah, 2 unless I'm missing something.

There are as many genders as there are dimensions, but humanity only seems to care about 2d and 3d. Maybe one day hypercubes and lines will be able to form matrimonial bonds with us, but that will be a matter for future generations to discuss.

Hey Vlado, if my national cultural heritage includes the existence of a third gender, how do I reconcile my obvious nationalism with the equally obvious truth that only 2 genders exist?

I mean, legally a lot of countries these days recognize 3.

I dunno how many there necessarily are, but "at least 3" sounds pretty straightforward. At least if you care about the law.

No
Thanksfully they are only common on the Internet and not IRL
I dunno if it's because they are just a "vocal minority" that find the Internet a easier medium to use over real life or if they are just basement dwellers
Or both

I've interacted with some genderqueer people. None who asked me to use Xe/Xir. Some didn't have a strong preference for pronouns. Some asked me to use They/Them.

I've known a few people who called themselves genderfluid, but they're also the kind of people who just get hitched to trends so I couldn't really take them seriously. Yeah sure Jordan, you're genderfluid, that's why you do crossfit and never shave your moustache, sure.

IMO, you can be one, the other, or neither. Bit iffier on "both", but hey, it's your life, and on closer inspection, it'd seem I actually don't give half a s*** what you call yourself. Making up anything else is kind of pointless, but again, I don't really care

That said, when referring to them, I'm calling someone he or she-- or they, if they ask nice. Ask for anything else and I'm just gonna call you by name whenever referring to you-- not that I've met anyone who takes issue.

This is kind of a stupid argument to begin with.

Even if you define gender as biological sex, Vlado, there are five, not two: XX, XY, XXX, XXY, and XYY.

Found out through twitter that a former friend is trans. My first reaction was to laugh hysterically, then feel sick to my stomach, then laugh again.

Is this a normal reaction, or am I cishet scum?

Not really. Anything but XX and XY are genetic flukes

And even still, you can have an XY that's completely female because an androgen insensitivity in the womb prevented any male structures from forming.

Honestly, the two biological sexes are "has penis" and "doesn't have penis"

Okay, but it's one that's necessary for the propagation of the species. As far as I know, extra chromosomes offer no biological benefit.

In conclusion, don't let others tell you that you're a "bigot" or whatever. You're in the majority even on an overwhelmingly liberal gaming message board on the internet. Your opinion is normal.
