So, uh, I hate to break it to you but there are differences in between male and female hands, foreheads, and shoulders. I mean, look around you. You don’t need a PhD in biology. You only require functioning eyes to notice the differences. Just because they aren’t sexual organs doesn’t mean those differences are negligible. They matter a whole lot.

Bruh, just admit you’re bi and chill out.

It's almost as though humans are a sexually dimorphic species, mainly when it comes to our bodies, and there are several things different between men and women that aren't just what genitals they were borm with

I don’t understand why these people try to pretend they were raised by wolves and have not spent their entire lives surrounded by other members of our species. Stop playing games and admit that male and female humans are, in fact, physically different. We can all see it as plain as day. This has been observed by every society until this lot came along.

Reminds me of getting into an argument with a guy the other day who insisted that the basis for sexual orientation was clothing and used Bacha bazi from Afghanistan as evidence of this since the pedophiles make the boys dress like girls.

He completely denied that biology played any role in attraction and it was entirely based on clothing and other social things.

I’ve never been able to fathom how anyone entertains that argument. Different cultures have different ideas of what constitutes feminine and masculine attire. For example, traditional Saudi menswear is pretty feminine by Western standards. Oddly enough, I’ve yet to encounter a straight Western man or a lesbian Westerner who looks at Saudi men and goes, “aww hell yes, that is what I want in my bed.” Maybe, just maybe, it’s because it’s readily apparent that they’re males who just happen to wear clothing our culture generally doesn’t associate with men.

If anything Bacha Bazi and other unhealthy examples of forced sexuality show how dangerous it is to view sexuality through the lens of gender. It's all stereotypes that force people to deny or hide their attraction and seek out exploitative ways to fulfill their desires. If homosexuality was normalized and accepted, men could date and have sex with other men openly and not rape young boys and force them to dress as girls because "it's not gay if he's underage"(?!??)

It's interesting how societies known to be extremely homophobic seem to have no problem with pederasty.

Two adult men fucking each other? Haram.

An adult men fucking a male kid? Sacred.

Does not compute...

Yeah... because, while they're not primary sex characteristics (like genitals), they ARE secondary sex characteristics... and that's still, yanno, sex characteristics. Something that humans are biologically hardwired to recognize, and respond to. Notably sexually: they're a major source of attraction, being much more obvious (in most cases) than genitals.

And, for anyone who's exclusively male-attracted, female secondary sex characteristics-- such as smaller hands, foreheads, shoulders, and skeletal structure in general-- are like being constantly reminded, "this is not what I want."
