White Guy Self-Identifies as Filipino Woman

[WinterHold]

It is kind of contradictory. On one hand we say that femininity/masculinity don't exist and that males/females are the same and interchangeable. On the other hand we recognize the extreme psychological plight a person is put in when they feel feminine but are actually male.

So, which is it?

They cant both be true. Personally I'll take the latter one and acknowledge the differences between men and women.

As for race, I have no idea.

No one claims feminine and masculine don't exist, nor that they are the same. This is a gross misunderstanding of the actual arguments. One oft repeated in certain circles, so I feel I must address it.

Your physical sex and your sexuality are different entities. No one claims the physical sexes are interchangeable, only that sexuality, which is psychological, exists on a sliding scale, not as a binary thing.
You are conflating the physical parts with the psychological parts and the social expectations. It is only the social expectations we are claiming to be artificial, and to be taken with a grain of salt.

Even psychologically we do not say they are all the same, only that they are all equal in rights and mental abilities. Men can be compassionate, women can be brave, gay people can be strong, transgender people can be whatever the hell they want to be, and all are intelligent, all deserve equal rights. They should not be boxed in by "Social Norms" for their physical gender, or even their psychological gender. If a person has man parts and femenine psycology, he does not have to be a stereotypical man, woman, or even gay person, but should be able to define himself. Or herself, if that person prefers.

Does this make any sense?

Human beings are two things:
1-Brain
2-Hormones that change the behavior of the brain

Psychology is nothing but neural connections inside your head. That's why we adapt to new skills; learn new things too.
That's also why some hormones can make a man "think like a woman" and vise versa.

Neglecting the strength of sexual hormones indicates ignorance in human body; in my perspective.
We have a single brain; with so many neural connections which are subject to our choices. Hormones make some connections easier to happen and faster; that's why torture -for example- is used to make the victim produce the proper hormones to simulate the desired behavior.
