It doesn't always have to be about sexual attraction, but other indicators like wanting to be viewed as 'sweet' and having doors held open for you, et...
I never implied it wasn't highly biased. I'm just noting what is. And many in the femboy community receive plenty of sexual adoration online and in th...
I believe that is a question for those that have the mental health condition. I'm out of time for now, but off the top of my head: 1. To avoid societa...
Incorrect. This can happen, but this is most likely due to attraction that already exists. AGP is an autosexual orientation that can be gratified by m...
In my experience actually being in the community (I am not LGBTQ, I just visited to see things for myself) yes. For the one's that transition, that is...
Correct. I believe most transsexuals know this. Transgender is a convenient way to justify their need to be seen as the other sex both for themselves,...
To be clear, this is transsexualism. There are the terms transgender and transsexual, and 'trans' shortens to make it unclear which you are referring ...
A fantastic question that likely requires its own topic. Why does society enforce prejudice and stereotypes when it comes to sex? I imagine its a comb...
100% agree. But that is not the society we live in. Society in general is a combination of individuals who have varying degrees of discomfort with cro...
I would say she is being asked what the odds are of it being a day in which a T side vs a H side coins is flipped. If she's only being asked what the ...
She can reason that its equally likely that the result of the coin flip is 50/50, but that doesn't mean its likely that the day she is awake is 50/50....
Gender by the modern day definition is not a biological given. It is a set of social expectations how one acts non-biologically in relation to one's b...
I'm not seeing the ambiguity here, but maybe I'm not communicating clearly. There are two outcomes based on context. 1 Outcome of the coin 2. Outcome ...
Correct. My point was that its just used as a word problem way of saying, "We have 3 outcomes we reach into a hat and pull from" Because there are two...
The part to note is that almost all of this is a red herring. Its irrelevant if she remembers or not. Its just word play to get us out of the raw math...
Correct. While a biological male and female do not change with time and culture, gender does. It is a subjective and flexible expectation that can var...
I did not mean to imply that constructs are not real. They are real ideas. God is a real idea. It doesn't mean that 'God' as an identifying and existe...
I may not have understood your exact meaning then. According to the definitions above, sex and gender are two different identities. One's sex is one's...
For the purposes of this discussion, yes. True, but does that apply to speech? Let me give you another example. There is a religion that is oppressed ...
Correct. To assist for Copernicus, "You can call something whatever you want, it doesn't change the reality of what it is." Great explanation. The goa...
I am looking at is a linguistic argument. Does it make sense to say the phrase, 'trans men are men' and change 'man' in the second reference to indica...
This is the OP's take as well. Correct and in agreement with the OP if man is taken as pointing out the sex of an individual, not 'man as gender'. The...
I think in the interests of being on scope with the OP, we shouldn't call out moderators or accuse the site of being overly restrictive in the past wi...
That's not the argument he was making. He was noting that the term 'man' may rely on biology, but it is not a fixed biological definition like 'spleen...
No actually. I'm going to reach out to some other moderators and request that you not. Remember this one sentence post you did yesterday? If anyone on...
Lets be polite please. Also lets stay on topic with the language argument of the OP please. Jamal, you are adding personal attacks and not encouraging...
I believe his definition implied a tautology. "A trans man is an adult female that purposefully acts in the gendered way society expects of an adult m...
That is one aspect for sure. But another aspect is the usefulness, reasonableness, and ease of use of the term. If it is reasonable, useful, and easy ...
A clarification. Crossing the gender line is a transgendered act. This is independent of one's own viewpoint. If one purposefully commits a transgende...
Not quite. A little too in depth for what was needed here I believe. I'm just approaching the phrasing and noting that if we define sex and gender sep...
Yet what has stayed consistent is a reference to sex and age. What we consider the age range for an adult has changed, but not that we ever considered...
While I do appreciate your weigh in, I'm trying to focus the discussion on the words and phrases themselves. Whether a person agrees with trans ideolo...
Right, but it doesn't mean two things at once in the same context. What context is it reasonable to use man as sex vs man as gender? Note my reply abo...
Ok, this is the first time I've seen you try to define it explicitly. So we have two definitions for the word. Then to be clear, if I state, "A trans ...
I'm trying to discuss this from a logical standpoint of vocabulary, not asking for a person's motivation for wanting one or the other. I'm sure that's...
I suppose discussions on a philosophy board can be tiring and not worth it. And when one isn't able to argue one's points effectively, and realizes th...
Ha ha! You do realize that the person who first insults the other person in a normal discussion is the one who has no real answer right? Thank you for...
Yes, in modern day separation of sex and gender, chromosomes indicate a person's sex. I don't think we're in overall disagreement Copernicus, but I th...
I'm not begging the question at all. Clearly defining terms then thinking if claims using those terms lead to logical outcomes is a normal discussion....
Your opinion is your own, I'm not here to argue for or against the validity of it. I'm simply assuming that if the definitions are true, can it be log...
Neither does sheep. You are still avoiding the question. Please give me a clear definition of man. If it has multiple meanings, explain what context i...
You don't believe in 'following' community or culture. Obviously you believe community and culture exist. Gender according to gender theory is the cul...
That is not an answer. If I asked, "What is a sheep?" and you replied, "Its an umbrella term that includes black and white sheep." you would think I w...
Gender is cultural. Meaning that if you understand the culture of a place, agree with that gendered culture, and purposefully act in a way that is aga...
