I had a more drawn out response but I realized that I was discussing things that I may not understand.
Honest question: if this person was claiming they were of the robot gender and that they wanted inclusion, would you deny that they were of that gender? How do you define it?
To those with less exposure, much of it seems subjective, the same way saying you're a "robot" (what does that mean to that person?) or you're a kin might.
Replace "robot" with "gender*" and it's indistinguishable in that sense. People will just as vehemently argue with you about people's assertions of gender, but that doesn't seem useful anymore.
- bobwaycott 8y agoHow exactly is robot a gender? What exactly comprises the robot gender? What social and/or cultural differences distinguish the robot gender from other socially constructed and performative genders? Are we just making stuff up here now?
