She's not saying "men and women should wear make-up if they feel like it" Actually... Believing in a gender binary, where only men and women exist, has created a stifling system where personality traits are attributed to one gender or the other. This ignores the vast intersections where male, female, and non-binary characteristics exist, co-mingle, and crossover. Whats wrong with a man crying and being sensitive? Whats wrong with a man in a dress? Whats scary about a woman who is strong and capable and assertive? Nothing but what weve made it be, and its all arbitrary. She pretty much did. --- CyricZ ...

^ This is what I don't understand. If we're trying to strip down certain physical aspects or character traits as being distinctly male or female, why are we putting so much emphasis on identifying them as such? Seems extremely counter intuitive.

Labels matter, words matter. Words are what we use to define the world, everything cant just mean whatever anyone wants it to mean. That defies the very point of language people have to agree on what words mean. If not it leads to a place where conversation becomes increasingly difficult because no one agrees on (or knows) what these words mean. You take a system of order turn it into chaos. If there are as many genders as there are people then gender ceases to have any useful meaning, we have a word for that it's called identity or personality. There are as many identities or personalities as there are people in the world. Everyone stop evolving language because it's upsetting Omega Hunter. --- CyricZ ... Copied to Clipboard!

^ This is what I don't understand. If we're trying to strip down certain physical aspects or character traits as being distinctly male or female, why are we putting so much emphasis on identifying them as such? Seems extremely counter intuitive. I dont get this. On one side they say you can be a woman and act masculine or be a man and act feminine. Then they say if you dont conform to gender norms that's fine you are non binary. However you just said a man doesn't have to act any particular way why are you non binary or identifying as something other than a man because you wear a dress...you just got done explaining that wearing a dress has nothing to do with being a man or a woman. Pick one. None of this makes any sense and is completely circular. --- When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say. ...

So you're in a topic arguing that people need to accept that there are more than 2 genders. While also arguing it's already a normal and common concept all around the world that there are more than 2 genders? Which one is it?

She acknowledges that it is present. But she in fact is pushing it by assigning things like jeans and not wearing makeup to men. She claims it's all arbitrary, but then uses those exact details as why she isn't on the gender binary, instead of simply saying "yeah I don't wear make-up but that doesn't make me a man" she instead uses those ideas to reinforce her behavior, saying gender is expressed in clothing and attitude. And that's the issue I take. Instead of breaking down the ideas, gender-fluid want to slide between them and hold onto them which isn't the best move for an egalitarian society. I don't get how you can put "the gender binary has created a stifling system where personality traits are attributed to one gender or the other." And "You express your gender in your clothing, attitude, energy, and how you fit in with a community. " In the same article, those are contradictions. She associates certain personality traits with genders while saying the "gender binary" doing the same is bad. --- "Just because someone is killed doesn't mean they died" - Shojikan ...

Like I said earlier other genders are almost entirely a way to demean homosexuals and trans individuals as "not real men" or "not real women". Using them is not a good example at all. --- "Just because someone is killed doesn't mean they died" - Shojikan ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm not sure what this has to do with anything? The point being that people weren't necessarily nearly as skeptical of queersness back then as one might think. I added it mostly because it's interesting and kind of related to Omega Hunter's ridiculous assertion that there were only ever two genders. --- Stop being so aggressively argumentative for no reason. - UnfairRepresent ...

I understand that defining words and labels can make people more comfortable and bring understanding to those who do not understand. I also hope that things might be easier if people just existed how they feel best suits them. Simply ask someone what their preferred pronouns are and move on.

There are many genders. What they mean is that there are two sexes, which still isnt correct because intersex / hermaphrodite is a thing. Additionally, theres variance even within the male and female sex.
Do you define it by chromosomes? Because along with the typical XX and XY, there are people out there who are XYX or XXX; mutations or variances occur. So are there 4+ sexes? Or you could define it by reproductive organs, but theres issues there too. There are males born with a penis and ovaries. There are the aforementioned hermaphrodites with male and female genitalia. Plus if you define sex by genitals, youd have to accept post-surgery trans people as their declared sex and thats controversial too. No matter how you look at it, there arent just two sexes. And gender is not sex. Thats a whole nother discussion, but keep in mind that even historically, there have been cultures that were inclusive of gender options beyond man or woman, such as the aboriginal concept of two-spirit. This isnt a new thing. Humanity has never been exclusively male or female, man or woman, and if you continue to think that way in spite of scientific and sociological evidence, youre a dumbass. ...
