What are your responses to my questions? You often give some of the best responses, so I'll look forward to them.

In case you don't know what my questions are: https://saidit.net/s/GCdebatesQT/comments/848j/gc_women_can_have_penises_and_men_can_have_vaginas/

Women can have penises and men can have vaginas?

There are gay women that say they are "into penises, but not into men, so trans women work", and gay men that say they are "into vaginas, but not into women, so trans men work".

They separate genitals from "man" and "woman". With that, the only conclusion is, "men can have vaginas, and women can have penises".

What do you think is wrong with that sort of statement?

What's wrong with "women can have penises, testes, sperm, etc, and men can have vaginas, uteruses, ovaries, eggs, etc"?

Why would the words "man" and "woman", "male" and "female" be reduced to sex organs and gametes? Why can't they be separated from each other?

I'll pass.

The rapid erosion of women's hard-won rights & what little respect we managed to obtain in the Western world over the past 100 years isn't a joke to me the way it seems to be for you. Same goes for lesbian & gay rights.

I have a hunch it's easy for you to lark about repeatedly challenging others to engage in pointless mental gymnastics over these issues because you came of age after the major battles for women's rights & gay rights had already been won. And because growing up, you weren't denied basic information about your own sexed body the way girls & women were through history.

But thanks for invitation.
