Don’t discount the impact of relationships on our views. Having a good friend who doesn’t conform to the “sex at birth” norm will often move someone over to their “gender is a construct” side.
- curtisblaine 5y agoYeah, but ultimately the vast majority of people are attracted to "sex at birth" and there's not much convincing you can do.
- falcolas 5y agoAttraction, beyond physical looks (which is easily manipulated with makeup) is much more complicated than what’s between your legs.
- curtisblaine 5y agoIt is, but what's between your legs plus all the secondary sexual characteristics (which are extremely difficult to disguise / imitate) are a big part of it. Not sufficient, but necessary.
- giardini 5y agoOK, so what are the remaining 99% of people to think about this?
- falcolas 5y agoI imagine it depends on their empathy: their ability to understand/validate someone else’s experience, despite not experiencing it themselves.
