Why do people care so much. It's a free country.

How does stating the biological fact that there are only two genders, male and female make one a bigot? I'm sorry your Gender Studies professor's claim that there are really 36 genders does not make it true.


Sex is biology, gender is a social construct. You are conflating the two.

Really? It's exactly the same thing. Please try to actually explain how it's different, rather resorting to juvenile name calling.

Here's a video by black transwoman Kat Blaque, answering your question in a more eloquent way than I probably could: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZEsCWWskbY&feature=youtu.be In short, she points out that though both are based in societal expectations and reactions, race is--at least in part--biologically passed from parent to child, while gender isn't.

I'll take another opportunity to point out that while the conversation in this thread has widened to include transgender issues, the majority of questions and responses here are about t(w)eens who are gender non-conforming, gender fluid, or gender neutral, and have no interest in transitioning.


Gender isn't?? Do you know how babies are made?

Yeah, I have one. And I'm working on figuring out how to explain it to him in an age-appropriate way. (I think I have it under control. )

Watch the video. I'm telling you, she explains it better than I do. Don't want to watch? Here's a Huffington Post article that also dives into the issue, and quotes her: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/transracial-vs-transgender-whats-the-difference_us_58dd5f83e4b0fa4c09598748

^^Oops- I meant sex, not race.

I'm a white woman, can I start identifying as a black man if that's how I feel?


Yes according to all these DCUM loons.


lol Women can identify as men, POC as whites, poor as wealthy. We can now go away with deranged feminists, affirmative action, and white privilege. Bingo!

Seriously, how is the comparison to race a "false equivalency"? The people who claim gender isn't a real biological condition also claim the same of race. What your DNA says about you is irrelevant and the only thing that matters is how you feel, so if for some reason a biological white person feels more of a connection to black culture, why can't they claim to be black or at least "racially fluid"?

It's not being shallow. It's being tired of dealing with this crazy BS. I am not going to try and understand or respect, let alone engage. Do you talk to the homeless? Do you try and engage? I would never be rude to anyone but I can still think they are mentally unstable and stay away.
