Literally semantics

[–]BiologyIsReal 11 insightful - 1 fun11 insightful - 0 fun12 insightful - 1 fun -  (23 children)

It's not semantics, it's anatomy.

Its a preference for one term over another when both refer to the same things. Semantics

Oh, do you mean like how trans identified people don't want to be refered by their sex? You and others think that being called a "man" is an unforgivable sin despite that for most people is a neutral term. Yet calling a vagina a "front hole" despite how dehumanizing and anatomically inaccurated it is is all fine and dandy.

Nah your term is representative of your ideology which is inaccurate whereas my term is just what some people prefer to call their own anatomy. Also front hole is a million times better than a word that means “sheath”

“Front hole”? like a mouth? A nostril? An ear canal (or are those side holes)? Can’t be a belly button because there’s no depth so that’s just silly…

I don’t get it…

Front of what?

[–]HeimdeklediROAR 1 insightful - 6 fun1 insightful - 5 fun2 insightful - 6 fun -  (3 children)

Id always assumed it meant in front of the anus

[–]loveSloaneDebate King[S] 9 insightful - 3 fun9 insightful - 2 fun10 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

Why would it mean that? Lol

Are you asking why words have the meanings they do? Well because people use them that way I suppose

[–]loveSloaneDebate King[S] 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

No I’m asking why we’d need to refer specifically to something as being in front of the anus?

I get that front hole is something in front, I just don’t get why what’s in front of the anus needs to be singled out, I guess

I like how "my" terms are the only ones representative of an inaccurated ideology...

How are babies made, Heim? Which combination of gametes produces a zygote?

[–]HeimdeklediROAR 1 insightful - 6 fun1 insightful - 5 fun2 insightful - 6 fun -  (13 children)

So people without gametes are sexless now Sloane?

You weren’t talking to me and that’s not even what they asked.

Why don’t you actually answer the questions you’re asked instead of deflecting?

[–]HeimdeklediROAR 1 insightful - 6 fun1 insightful - 5 fun2 insightful - 6 fun -  (11 children)

My mistake. I did answer. The fact that gametes don’t determine sexual status is clear from people who don’t produce gametes. The fact that an egg cell and a sperm cell are usually required for a zygote to form is not proof that sex is binary, because sex is about anatomy not just gametes

[–]BiologyIsReal 8 insightful - 3 fun8 insightful - 2 fun9 insightful - 3 fun -  (5 children)

The fact that gametes don’t determine sexual status is clear from people who don’t produce gametes.

The fact that some people can't produce gametes doesn't meant their bodies aren't built around the prodution of them.

The fact that an egg cell and a sperm cell are usually required for a zygote to form is not proof that sex is binary

Excuse me, are you saying that there have been babies that were born from any other combination than a egg and a sperm cells? Provide proof.

because sex is about anatomy not just gametes

Where do you think gametes come from?

How are babies made?

Which combination of gametes produces a zygote?

You did not answer those questions. You answered something nobody asked.
