That's what's a social construct is, and unless you make everyone you meet drop pants and show off their genitals, which you then inspect for surgical scars etc then run a DNA test to make sure they aren't intersex - you make a quick guess based on limited information that alligns with your previous experiences with people who also shared those traits.
You're mad at passing culture, not pronouns.
- LawTalkingGuy 4y ago> unless you make everyone you meet drop pants and show off their genitals What's the obsession with this phrase, as if everyone is going to say "Oh no, we can't try to prevent rape anymore because we'd have to look at people's genitals to accomplish it. haha, silly us." For one, we had a solution to this. It was your ID which listed your sex. And two, if people screw with ID laws enough that it can't be trusted then you will be required to go to a doctor and drop your pants down to have your biology categorized as a requirement to enter female spaces and events.
- l3uwin 4y agoRepackaged homophobic rehtoric. Not all trans people are trans-women, and if you wanted to prevent rape you'd do better to ban politicians and priests from bathrooms
- LawTalkingGuy 4y ago> if you wanted to prevent rape you'd do better to ban politicians and priests We already had banned all male politicians and priests from female spaces simply by virtue of their being male. You're weakening that protection by letting them claim to be female to avoid being removed. https://fairplayforwomen.com/prison-review/ https://fairplayforwomen.com/prison-review/ > Not all trans people are trans-women And yet trans women (and males by any other ID) are the risk. > Repackaged homophobic rehtoric Wow, no. What's homophobic is you trying to use homosexuality to defend men in women's spaces. This is why the LGB Alliance is fighting for homosexual and sex-based rights and separation from the trans-queer movement.
- l3uwin 4y agoLmao, just no. Grow up
- ETH_start 4y agoWe do often make a quick guess about a person's gender, but that doesn't invalidate anything I said. The two genders themselves once referred strictly to biological sex so when we said someone is a "woman", everyone knew what traits would be highly likely to be associated with that person.
