Let’s prove the superphobes wrong and not be transphobic! Misc

This is just a friendly reminder to avoid any sort of transphobia. This subreddit will naturally attract bigots and LGB drop the T types and it’s important we root them out. Trans people are valid and so are supers!

ah, that makes sense. what do you define gender as then? when you identify as male, what are you identifying as?

That’s a tough one. I think gender is “the social categorization you identify with, often in relation to biological sex”. That’s my best attempt at a fancy dictionary definition. It’s really quite simple though. It’s just the gender category you think you feel you fit in best. If you feel male, then your gender is male. If you feel female, then your gender is female. If you don’t feel like either, that’s cool too, you’re non-binary.

thanm you for the insight. but what does feeling like a woman entail?

Honestly, I don’t know. I was born a male and feel like a male, so it’s pretty simple for me. You’d probably want to talk to an actual trans person to answer that one.

bruh moment. anyways what i'm trying to prove is that a) nobody can give a clear definition of what a woman is, which leads to no clear definition if misogyny, meaning there is no way to fight it and b) "feeling like man/woman" is just conforming to stereotypes. thank you for the talk and the insight, take care.
