[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people have lost their ever-loving minds because they keep confusing gender with sex. Which I find to be so weird because in theory people are paying more attention and are more educated about it... but not really.

CIS men don't just have a male gender and CIS female don't just have female gender. We all present in a myriad of ways. Feminine women may express predominantly in feminine gendered ways, but they also have masculine traits and vice versa. I am a woman who has long hair, wears makeup, and likes to make my home look nice. But I also play contact sports, spit when I run, express anger openly, am super competitive, into fast cars, and I like to build things with my hands.

This confusing of gender and sex has fluid people thinking they must mutilate their bodies. It also has people thinking that because they want to express their gender as feminine (dresses, makeup, mannerisms etc) that it must mean they are in the wrong body. Uh no. How many women do you know wear dresses on a daily basis? the VAST majority do not. It's so unimportant. But I have never seen a trans woman present herself as anything other than being feminine in every single freaking aspect. It's exhausting. Just be who you want to be, look how you want to look, gender yourself out the wazoo, but leave your sex alone. [/quote]

Gender and sex are the same.  We have tried to separate them.  But then people transition and have surgery to match their biological sex, as much as they can, to their gender.  Because everyone knows that they are the same and changing one without the other doesn't work.[/quote]
