Nor is there a reason to distinguish between cis women and trans women. Which is why a sex spectrum model works best for describing sex, just as a species spectrum model is better at describing evolutionary states over time than imagining species as objectively distinct entities

[–]Heimdekledi 2 insightful - 10 fun2 insightful - 9 fun3 insightful - 10 fun -  (0 children)

No, no humans are male or female because its a spectrum. Also the number of limbs on a human being is objectively not a fixed number, so yeah you could describe it as a spectrum.

All sex traits determine an individuals sex spectrum status, not just “primary” ones. The distinction is arbitrary.

Mammalian reproduction following a two gamete pattern does not show that their are only two sexes, because some people who don’t produce gametes. Since those people aren’t sexless, sex is based on anatomy and therefore a spectrum as sexual anatomy occurs in intermediate forms across a whole range of possible sex trait configurations.

It in no way supports such an idea? The issue is oppressive systems of thinking not people posessing certain sex trait configurations

Cis people and their noxious sytsems of oppression are what fuel the tendency for trans people to normalize their appearances in line with cis standards of appearance. I’m sorry, what was that you said about victim blaming? 🙄

Trans men do have penises though. You mean to say that you expect a man that you’re interested in to have a penis of a certain type. Also you don’t have to announce it but remember that if you assume and you’re wrong you shouldn’t get mad at the other person, you should just tell them that it isn’t going to work out and leave.

The sex binary is a part of gender. Sex trait combinations actually occur along a spectrum. With no artificial sex binary and the oppressive societies that they breed, people who are born with or desire different sex trait combinations won’t be stigmatized.

If you recall right before the old sub was banned it became the official position of the sub that trans women not disclosing their trans status was rape by deception and alot of QT members left over that.

Why is kissing okay by this logic? That would be sexual assault, no?

Both, but in my view sexuality isn’t based on binary sex status, but rather on observable physical traits. No one is attracted to people based on chromosomes for instance, because chromosomes aren’t directly perceivable in everyday life.

Edit: Maybe a biologist with a very niche kink?

I wasn’t aware there was a resolution to that discussion. In any case not using male gendered pronouns isn’t QT language, it’s neutral language. Funny how you can’t tell the difference, but I suppose that’s privilege for you

They don’t appear to be QT either. Unaffiliated?

Thanks for that.

QT/trans: What would be the worst things to happen if the concept of gender did not exist? by [deleted] in GCdebatesQT

The fact that ova are only produced once in an individuals lifetime still inherently means that they are produced. So again how am I wrong?

Also the commonly held belief that humans are incapable of forming new egg cells after birth is actually an open question:

This has nothing to do with stereotypes and I never claimed to be an expert.

Also calling me “male” is both bad form, and stereotyping of people who actually identify as males.

Its not reifying gender to use she/her pronouns, to refer to oneself as female/a women, and to say that trans women are women.

You have misunderstood the sex matrix; trans women aren’t women on the sex matrix, because there isn’t a “woman” section on the sex matrix.

Disabled people can still be ableist.

An example has already been given for how ideas can hurt people.

My appearance is not a statement to me being a woman its just a way that I feel comfortable looking. I don’t want anyone assuming my gender based off of my appearance because then that means that someone else is probably having that same standard used against them to their detriment. I am a gender abolitionist and the only reason that I put an “F” on my drivers license was so that I could better maneuver in this cis supremacist society of yours. I have zero interest in reifying gender norms so don’t accuse me of such.
