There are only 2 genders

(02-10-2017, 06:21 PM)Beaker Wrote: Gender is a biological construct. During fetal development, both DNA and hormones determine the gender of the fetus. The fetus can be male or female. Girly girl, effeminate male, butch female, etc are not genders. Those are how the person of that gender presents themselves to the world via the thoughts in their head. That does not change their gender. Gender roles such as how women should dress and act, etc....those are defined by society. You are either male, female, or transitioning from one to the other.

You're using the words "sex" and "gender" interchangeably, which in common usage is often ok (because "sex" is a dirty word for some snowflakes), but from a sociological perspective, particularly in this discussion about trans people and "gender", "gender" has a completely different meaning. 

This seems to be an issue that many cannot get past but will need to if they actually want to discuss the topic at hand, and pretending like these distinctions do not exist makes absolutely no sense, especially when the person you are talking to acknowledges the relative binary nature of "sex".
