[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP's post is exactly what bothers me about this.

Just because someone isn't SUPER feminine or masculine, doesn't mean they aren't their cis gender. [b]There are many ways to be female (or male).[/b][/quote]

I find a lot of this discussion of different genders/etc to reinforce rather rigid gender definitions and roles, which is [ironically] quite retro and in that respect extremely unfortunate and counterproductive.

Minus 1,000 for straw-man argument - no one disagrees on all the shades of gray in gender identity. Why keep returning to a point of consensus as if it represents a major epiphany?

A straw man is a form of argument and an informal fallacy of having the impression of refuting an argument, whereas the real subject of the argument was not addressed or refuted, but instead replaced with a false one. One who engages in this fallacy is said to be "attacking a straw man". Wikipedia
