I'm so sick of seeing this. You can't know the gender of every single person you find attractive! Think you can? Define woman. Define man. Oh, it's based on self-identification?? Then same/opposite gender attraction is utterly meaningless!!!! I swear they don't know their own ideology 🤦

Right? If attraction based on gender refers to the self-identification of others, then how would you ever know? You would never be able to think a stranger looks attractive at a glance.

If attraction based on gender refers to the gender role(s) that a person may perform, then isn't that borderline offensive? This person wears the woman costume imposed by society, regardless of who they are, so therefore I'm attracted to them?
