Perhaps I need an education in gender identity, But I only see gender as binary. I'm open to be convinced otherwise. Let me start with a statement, which I'm sure people will jump all over.Nope gender and sex are tow different things they are two different words
I define gender normalcy as that which functions according to its design. Our design is in our DNA as male or female. Gender identity uses the same words and is thus binary. Is this a true statement? Elucidate me.
PS- I don't think I did the serious tag right, I need an education on that too please

Persistency of behavior
Quote:I'm curious. Your little daughter goes into a female restroom. A few moments later, a 300-lb obvious trans woman goes into that same bathroom. Are you just standing there wondering what's new on Netflix or whatever?I would be no more or less concerned then if any stranger went into that rest room with my children .
Quote:See, I've met some perfectly normal trans people.
Trans people are normal
Quote:But I've also met some full-blown, Silence of the Lambs crazy bitches-- like scary shit.
Same can be said for non trans people
Quote:Now, I don't know if Jehanne or other trans people here are part of a community of trans people-- but I'm curious. .Don't know
Quote:have they not met those psycho bitches, or is that just a misapprehension I have due to a very small sample size?The latter
Quote:(I'd say I've met less than a dozen trans people, and really interacted with maybe half of that)I have met dozens
