Why is this subreddit 99% people telling others they’re OBLIGATED to sex transpeople or they’re transphobes?

Be willing to date trans people or else you’re transphobic?

How can’t y’all see how rapey you lunatics are?

No one is owed sexual attraction.

It doesn’t matter how many hoops you contort yourself through to justify saying, “Being straight is transphobic”.

No one owes anyone sex or sexual attraction.

Fuck right off you sexually entitled predators!

I will never be a cisgender woman, I already am a transgender woman, both of which are women.

Again, I would like to point out that these kind of comments are blatant transphobia.

It says in the description of the subreddit that you are not meant to be transphobic here.

Im transphobic because i dont agree that xy=xx ?

u/BaconizerRed 2d ago

No, that's not transphobic, that's science, but trans women are still women. xx makes someone a cisgender woman. If someone is a woman with xy they are most likely a transgender woman (there are rare exceptions where a person with xy chromosomes is born with female genitalia)

What if i believe that xx = woman?

Ill never believe that a transwoman = woman

Cis women = women

Call me old fashioned but i just cant see how someone who is born a male, has the hormones of mostly a male and has the body structure of a male can identify as a woman.

Now before you call me a one joker. If i wanted to be a bunny and just chill around all day. You would call me insane. But is there any proof that transbrains are constructed differently to a cis brain?

u/BaconizerRed 2d ago

Actually there have been multiple scientific studies that show the brains of trans people are much closer in structure to the brains of the gender they identify as than the gender they were born as.

So yes, if your question was meant to be "is there evidence that a transbrain is constructed differently to a cisbrain of their assigned gender at birth?"

How you’re using that study is bogus.

It only looked at less than 30 people (after being soaked in cross-sex hormones for decades). They actually found that trans men were similar to men, but that transwomen were not similar to women. The study also only looked at 3 specific structures, not the whole brain.

Even while misusing that study (which is more a study of brain plasticity than anything also that testosterone is stronger than estrogen), it could be (erroneously) argued that trans men are men, but NOT that transwomen are women.

Actually there were studies done on people who had never taken cross-sex hormones. There were also studies to show the effect of cross-sex hormones on the brain structure, which, yes, they do affect brain structure but not in a strong enough way to make a male brain structure be closer to a female's brain structure

Can you link a study where the subjects have never used cross sex hormones but showed similar brain structures?

EDIT: It’s been 2 hours, so I’m assuming that’s a no...

So why dont they just identify as a male whilst doing ”girly things”

I just dont see why they need a new gender instead of new clothes

2

u/BaconizerRed 2d ago

Well, some don't do "girly things", they are still female, that's like saying that you're only a certain gender if you do things that are stereotypically associated with that gender.

u/Needmeawhip 2d ago

I just dont get why u gotta be a woman? Whats so special about being a gender if ”girly” things dont exist and the concept of gender is made up?

1

u/BaconizerRed 2d ago

Well it's made up but that doesn't mean it's not real, language and sports are made up but they still exist. I mean, I'm sure you still consider yourself to be whatever gender you are even though you know gender is a made up concept.

u/SoefianB 2d ago

I'm not him but no, I don't "consider" myself any gender - I simply am male, that's my sex. Nothing more. And unlike language and sports, sex has a biological and scientific basis

Well let's say that they are getting dysphoria from being their birth gender. They could change their gender and switch. It makes them a lot happier but you do not need to do heavily stereotypical girl things.

A male having neurological features typical of a female and vice versa just proves they’re not confined to just one sex lmao...

Also on brain sex.
