There is literally nothing wrong with not really being a woman, but simply a transsexual.

You can be cute, lovely, and feminine. You just don't have a female reproductive system and as such aren't really a woman. There's nothing wrong with that.

Would you say this to a cis woman who has had a hysterectomy?

>>8117202
Yes.

>>8117212

>>8117227
I would call a cis male who does not experience gender dysphoria but whose dick fell off in a freak accident a man. A trans woman is not a man.

>>8117242
Would you consider an amab that had srs and hrt but still identified as male a man?

If so, is the only indication of gender what they tell you?
>>
>>8117269
>Would you consider an amab that had srs and hrt but still identified as male a man?
If I didn't have any reason to believe otherwise, sure. Someone who is dfab and pre-t who identifies as a man is a man, so I don't see how this is different.

>If so, is the only indication of gender what they tell you?
Within reason. It's impossible to draw a clear dividing line between the two that would be applicable to every human on earth.

Tossing around hypotheticals and extremely rare edge cases as some kind of gotcha isn't helpful. Definitions can be flexible, but that doesn't mean they aren't real at all.
>>
>>8117316
>pre-t who identifies as a man is a man,
What about pre hrt mtf?

The few posts in this thread show that identity is arbitrary. Biology isn't.

Trans people can identify as whatever they want. Others are still free to call it as they see it.

Personally I would respect a fully passing mtf that accepts they are just a modified male over one that thinks pills and surgery makes them a woman.


Trans people need to learn that they are only doing for themselves and most people will not respect it unless they pass.
>>
>>8117365
>The few posts in this thread show that identity is arbitrary. Biology isn't.
It's not "biology," though. It's the label you choose. You really, really, *really* want it to be true that "man" == "was born with and still has a penis" and vice versa for "woman." That's not correct, though. There's a whole lot more to gender than just genitals, and there's literally no practical reason why we should separate people into distinct, hard-line categories based on only that. None. (Real) trans women have more in common with cis women, as a social category, than they do with cis men, and it helps literally no one to pretend that isn't true.

It's completely arbitrary, like you say--except for the fact that trans people experience dysphoria when lumped in with cis people with the same genitals, and *you* do not experience any negative consequences by referring to people as one pronoun or another.

They're doing it for themselves because the only alternative is suffering or even death.
>>
>>8117425
There is male,female and intersex. No amount of body modification changes that. Mtfs are just biological males that have undergone modification. Why is this considered a bad thing?

Your whole argument is "but they identify as..." .

Getting cosmetic surgery to look like a Klingon would not make me one.

>>8116171
Isnt it reductive to reduce a woman (any woman) to her reproductive organs?
>>
>>8117505
What does it mean to be a man or woman? For me ,it is just your original biological make up.
>>
>>8117487
It's a bad thing because of the word "male." It implies they are men. Which both gives them dysphoria, and is inaccurate. They are not the same social category as men. They, after transition, don't even have the same bodies.

The instances in which it is absolutely necessary to mention their gender assignment or anatomy are not common in day to day life, and there is no reason to cause them significant physical and emotional distress because you can't let go of your webster's dictionary.

>There is male,female and intersex. No amount of body modification changes that. Mtfs are just biological males that have undergone modification. Why is this considered a bad thing?

Im not the anon you where replying to but, its not up to you how these people identify and trying to beat them with the biology stick wont make you right. You dont present your biology when you walk into a fucking subway, you present your gender. People arent on the lookout for your chromosomes to tell if you are a woman or a man.
This is why cis people who look just south of average (or in some cases just had short hair) got swept up in that craze about bathrooms last year.

>>8117519
>What does it mean to be a man or woman? For me ,it is just your original biological make up.

Thats fine for you. But I dont think like that. My Mom and most of my female friends dont think like that. Also, how do you check that with strangers?
>>
>>8117575
Most trans people don't pass so they gender is based on how others perceive them.

It matters when dating.

You did not answer my question. If you don't pass,which most don't,then you get labled by others. Only passing trans will hold their identity until closer scrutiny such as medical professionals and dating.
>>
>>8117622
If they have no reason to beleive you're trans, then you can't blame them. But if someone is at least attempting to present female and tells you they are a woman, there's no reason not to refer to them as "her."

If you don't want to date a trans person, then don't. No one is forcing you to. No, not even the blue haired fat liberal SJWs on facebook.
>>
>>8117637
I will use pronouns. I have encountered mtfs that get pissed if they think you are not treating them like you would a female. I treat everyone the same. I have been called transphobic for not wanting to date trans people. I have also been called a chaser just for striking up conversation.
>>
>>8117622
>Most trans people don't pass
Ok, let me stop you right there.
Thats bullshit. Most trannies dont pass to people on this board. A board full of hyper critical nutjobs.
In truth its more like 50ish to 60ish percent pass because normal people dont frequent imageboards full of trannies calling each other hons.

And you know what, yes, it does matter when dating. Not when I go to walmart.

> you get labled by others

You mean how every other human on the planet is? Your trying to make this an exclusive problem to transpeople because LOLBIOLOGY when it really fucking isnt.
>>
>>8117692
Im not making it exclusive to trans. Others are trying to exclude trans. A big drag queen looking hon came in and got huffy at the counter when I said " what can I get for you". If pronouns was all that people wanted out of me then fine,but that is not the case.

Identifying as a fictional species is an entirely different matter from identifying as a member of a human sex.

All of these comparisons people make are retarded.

>if you support gender transitioning would you let someone who identifies as a dog get surgery to look more like a dog?

>if you believe transpeople should be allowed into the bathroom they identify with, then should I be allowed to tick african-american on my college application because I identify as a black person?


None of this shit is comparable to gender dysphoria. Identifying with the opposite sex from your birth sex is understandable because there's actually a roughly 50% chance you could've been born as the other sex. It's actually feasible that your brain at some point in development got a dose of the wrong hormones and was feminized while the body was masculinized, or vice versa. It is not feasible that people can get a dose of dog hormones, Napoleon hormones, or black hormones which changed their brain. Napoleon and black hormones don't even exist, and dog hormones would just be treated as human ones by your body. That's not to mention there's no way a white, human, non-Napoleon fetus could even get such hormones if they did exist. Whereas a biologically male fetus receiving female hormones is definitely possible.

>According to some scientists, that balance can shift long after development is over. Studies in mice suggest that the gonad teeters between being male and female throughout life, its identity requiring constant maintenance. In 2009, researchers reported deactivating an ovarian gene called Foxl2 in adult female mice; they found that the granulosa cells that support the development of eggs transformed into Sertoli cells, which support sperm development. Two years later, a separate team showed the opposite: that inactivating a gene called Dmrt1 could turn adult testicular cells into ovarian ones. “That was the big shock, the fact that it was going on post-natally,” says Vincent Harley, a geneticist who studies gonad development at the MIMR-PHI Institute for Medical Research in Melbourne.

There is, though. How obnoxious would it be towards black people if I tanned myself brown and claimed to be black? And it turns into a REAL problem when laws begin to acknowledge trans people as the sex they're claiming to be, while at the same time lifting all gatekeeping. Any random creep can claim to be trans now. Most of the AGP hons are creeps. The Swedish long-term study found violent crime inclination of MtF to be the same as males in total...

>Would you say this to a cis woman who has had a hysterectomy?
A real woman who has had a hysterectomy
- has had her uterus removed, meaning she actually had one
- still has the rest of the female reproductive system, including a real vagina and often the ovaries.

MtFs with an obsession with being a ~~real~~ woman should get counseling to have that issue fixed. It's an unhealthy fixation on wanting to be something you are not and cannot realistically become.

You're liying about violent and crime rates

The author Herself says those were mostly just crimes of theft and poverty. And that everyone measured after 1989 had female rates of criminality.

So accoding to the study, every trans in the modern period is no more likely to cause crimes than cis women. You lied out of desperation and that shows how weak your argument is.

But since we're talking about crime rates, is it fair to point out that according to massive longtitudinal studies, lesbians have a hugely elevated crime rate and are about as prone to violent crime and sexual abuse as men if not more? Do they deserve no rights now? Are lesbians like blackface/bestiality now?

This indicates that they retained a male pattern regarding criminality. The same was true regarding violent crime.

Also,
>So accoding to the study, every trans in the modern period is no more likely to cause crimes than cis women.
LOL no, this is utter bullshit. First of all, we're talking about a Swedish study. Sweden is one of the most progressive and non-violent countries on Earth. Even if their treatment of trans improved to the point of making sure they drop their male violence during the time they get counseling, we don't know how it's going to be in, say, the US.

Just check out the amounts of violent crime committed by MtFs in the US in 2016 alone:

So in otherwords, the study proved trans who transitioned after 1989 are no more violent than women. But you say it doesn't count because you don't like it.

Because Cecilia Dhejne and her study proved you wrong. Most who got SRS in 1978 are dead. And everyone from 1989 onward which is nearly all trannies, was no more violent or prone to arrests than women. You say she lied or it doesn't count.
>>
>>8118301
>So in otherwords, the study proved trans who transitioned after 1989 are no more violent than women.
The study proved only, and ONLY the following:

In Sweden, a specific group of transsexuals who underwent SRS between the years of 1989 and 2003, and were being actively monitored for the purposes of the study, had the same violent crime rates as the general population of Swedish women.

That's it.

At the same time, the study proves that a different group of transsexuals had male levels of violent criminality.

It is the author's CONJECTURE that this is because trans care has gotten better. There is no proven explanation of it.

Honestly I think you're wrong. Not only did the study contradict you and not only did you have to rely on some funny business when it showed at anything close to the present -what really matters- trans peaceful and law abiding, but when it's pointed out, you get mad and claim the study and author's own words don't count.

It seems like you don't have any good to add. Worse yet, you're making insane blackface comparisons to a disease that kills people. And that really annoys me.

I've said nasty stuff before and it hurts all the trans over here. I feel bad about it and want to stop.

You don't seem to understand how insane stuff like denigrating medical diseases is. Or how you're now trying to deny truth with shady blogs.

You seem a lot like how Cara used to be. And the fact you stalked or harassed a girl in the past just makes that paralle worse. I don't think you should preach morality. You should step back, see you're being irrational and hurting people with nonsence.
>>
>>8118373
And the study proves that anyone who trantioned 1989 onwards had female rates of criminality. In other words nearly all transexuals in existence today.

So in other words, it proves that mtfs are no more dangerous than women.

She's a real person, yes. There are also real people who think they're the reincarnation of historical figures or who identify as non-human animals. It doesn't mean their identities are legitimate. As explained it's a totally different beast than gender identity. The brains of transgender people are proven to be closer to that of their preferred sex than their assigned one. I haven't seen any proof that Dolezal has a brain like a black person or that the Lizardman has a brain like a reptile.

This is nonsense and I responded to it before.

Having a mental disorder that makes one want to mutilate one's body is not like blackface.

Imitating the stereotypical image of women, wearing dresses, makeup, high-heels, etc., then saying "look at me I'm a woman uguu~" is akin to blackface.

>>8118560

E.g. what's with the "probably". Are passing MtFs women or not? Any other conditions, other than passing?

>>8118632
>nonsence mockery of deadly medical conditions
I don't think that AGP is a deadly medical condition. I don't think that e.g. Bruce Jenner, Frank Maloney, or Jonathan Willoughby had a deadly medical condition that made them decide to become Caitlyn, Kelly, and India. I don't think it's because of a deadly medical condition that Dave Muscato calls himself Danielle and tells women to suck his dick if they can't accept that "some women just have penises." I don't think it's a deadly medical condition that makes the author of AssignedMale draw a borderline pedo-AGP web comic in which children speak of how they pee out of their clitorises and how their penis is a girl's penis.

Yes but that's like femgen where they want things like blockers or HRT and only feel comfortable looking fem.

That is what you said, you never gave any qualifiers. If you knew what I've said, you know I wouldn't care with the later but all you've been doing is mocking people with diseases.

>don't think that AGP is a deadly medical condition.

Transwomen are women because they have significantly feminized brains. If you do not believe this to be true, then it means one of two things: One, that the brains of transwomen are not significantly feminized, which is objectively wrong. Or two, that someone's brain and internal sense of self do not decide who they are, but rather their DNA and genitals.

If you believe that transwomen are not women because they have male genitals, and current SRS options don't change that enough, then ask yourself this. If, in theory, we developed a procedure that could give transwomen genitals that are 100% identical to cis women, would you then call them women, or is that not enough? Do you think DNA and chromosomes must be changed too? Then, if we could change them, would transwomen be women? If we changed everything about a transwomen so that no scientist could ever tell the difference between her and a cis women, are they now officially women? If not, then what is there that has to be changed?

Now, let's gone on to why deciding that DNA, chromosomes, and genitals are what defines a person identity more than anything is ridiculous. Do you believe that two identical male twins are the same person? They have exactly the same dna, chromosomes, and genitals. What exactly makes them different? Evidently personality and memoru doesn't matter, so what else is there to differentiate them? If they are the same person, then what would happen if I did those theoretical procedures I talked about earlier on one of the twins? Changing their DNA and chromosomes, genitals, etc. Are they now different people? Have I created a new person?

This is why these arguments are retarded. What defines a person, more than anything else, is their brain. Their memories, their personality, the way they think. If a transwoman has the personality of a woman, thinks like a woman, and has many memories than women have, then how are they not a woman?

>Do you think DNA and chromosomes must be changed too?
Chromosomes are actually medically irrelevant to sex
http://www.nature.com/news/sex-redefined-1.16943
>According to some scientists, that balance can shift long after development is over. Studies in mice suggest that the gonad teeters between being male and female throughout life, its identity requiring constant maintenance. In 2009, researchers reported deactivating an ovarian gene called Foxl2 in adult female mice; they found that the granulosa cells that support the development of eggs transformed into Sertoli cells, which support sperm development. Two years later, a separate team showed the opposite: that inactivating a gene called Dmrt1 could turn adult testicular cells into ovarian ones. “That was the big shock, the fact that it was going on post-natally,” says Vincent Harley, a geneticist who studies gonad development at the MIMR-PHI Institute for Medical Research in Melbourne.

You need to cherry-pick studies to support that claim. Others dispute it:

>The present data do not support the notion that brains of MtF-TR are feminized.

But yes, even if MtF brains were "feminized" in the sense that they're closer to female-average size/whatever in certain parts, that wouldn't justify calling them "female brains" any more than it makes sense to say a 5'0" male has "female height".

>If, in theory, we developed a procedure that could give transwomen genitals that are 100% identical to cis women, would you then call them women, or is that not enough?
If we had alien technology that literally changes your sex (say we grow brainless human bodies in lab tubes then transplant the brain into them), then it would make sense to say that people "become" women through such procedures, though there would still be a significant distinction to be made between men who become women, and women who are born woman.

But that's all kind of a derailment of the topic, as we don't have such technology.

>Evidently personality and memoru doesn't matter
Except that this is exactly it. Being born female entails with it material living conditions and experiences with no person born male will ever or could ever experience.

>If a transwoman has the personality of a woman,
What is a "woman's personality"? There is no such thing. The personality of someone who is a woman is automatically a woman's personality; the personality of someone who isn't a woman isn't. The other way to approach this -- to say that some personalities are "woman" personalities, sounds like sexist stereotyping.

Interesting, but a single study on 23 transbians, and only transbians, hardly disproves the trend shown earlier with multiple sources. That's cherrypicking far harder than anything I've done.

>But yes, even if MtF brains were "feminized" in the sense that they're closer to female-average size/whatever in certain parts, that wouldn't justify calling them "female brains" any more than it makes sense to say a 5'0" male has "female height".

But that is a female height. It's not to say that he's female, but such a short height is definitely a feminine trait, and your brain defines you far more than your height does.

>If we had alien technology that literally changes your sex (say we grow brainless human bodies in lab tubes then transplant the brain into them), then it would make sense to say that people "become" women through such procedures, though there would still be a significant distinction to be made between men who become women, and women who are born woman.

So physical bodies are literally the only difference between men and women? Why? For most other things people are defined by their brains, not their bodies. Why should gender be different?

>Being born female entails with it material living conditions and experiences with no person born male will ever or could ever experience.

Maybe, but extremely early transitioners can have memories more or less the same as their cis counterparts. Even later transitioners will have female memories that no cis man will have, though, like wearing women's clothing in public, being treated as a woman as an adult, etc.

>What is a "woman's personality"? There is no such thing.

Personality may have been too broad of a word, but if you don't believe men and women in general act differently you're out of your mind. Obviously not every woman will act the same, nor will every man, but there are definitely personality traits that are more common in women or men.

Which proves a distinction between HSTS and AGP.

>But that is a female height.
That's bollocks. Just because a certain height occurs more frequently in women and rarely in men doesn't make it "female". That's just enforcing a binary where there is none. Where there is a binary is, for example: whether you have the gene SRY or don't, whether you have testes or ovaries, whether you have a clitoris or a penis. (A micropenis is still a penis, and an enlargened clitoris is still a clitoris. A penis has the urethra go through it, a clitoris does not.)

>So physical bodies are literally the only difference between men and women?
Intrinsically, yes. Everything else that sets women and men apart comes from life experiences caused by living in those bodies.

>Why?
Because that's a clear biological distinction of mammals into two discrete sexes, whereas things like height, brain size, etc. are spectra along which women and men have different, but significantly overlapping, distributions.

>For most other things people are defined by their brains
The brain is not a sex organ. Also, speaking politically, race and class aren't decided by one's brain either.

>extremely early transitioners can have memories more or less the same as their cis counterparts
They still cannot have experiences intrinsically tied to being female, like menstruating or getting pregnant. At most, they can get parts of the societal treatment females get.

>Even later transitioners will have female memories
No he won't. Only if he passes, he will have a very limited part of what female people experience.

>if you don't believe men and women in general act differently you're out of your mind

>Not all [women] have those memories either, though.

Then he, individually, lacks that particular male-only memory. He still has the ability to have it, whereas women categorically don't. Because it's a memory exclusive to one sex.

>Evidently being treated as a female in adolescence is a female memory according to you, yet being treated as a female in adulthood isn't?
As stated above, one can at most get a small part of the experiences that normally the other sex has; in particular, experiences that are related to how people perceive you, because people can be deceived. This is only one aspect from *many* of the experiences of female-born people.

This is incoherent because your sex is determined by your genes, gonads, hormones, and reproductive organs. You cannot say these "correlate" with sex when sex is *defined* by these traits.

Height, size of parts of the brain, pitch of one's voice, etc. correlate with sex.

Then why do homosexual people not have all the dimorphic brain traits of their non-birth sex, only some? Whereas trans people have many more.

Being short, especially that short, is a feminine trait. Now, the man is question is not a woman because he has many other masculine traits that make up for it. It doesn't mean his height isn't feminine, though.

Explain this, then. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypospadias
According to you, their penis is a clitoris because it does not have a urethra traveling through it. And you claimed a clitoris is a female only trait in a male/female binary. Yet people with this condition also have testicles, which you claimed are a male only trait.

Genitals are just as much a spectrum as height or brains.

Fair enough. But from my point of view, a person is their brain, They are not their bodies. Therefore, a person with a feminine brain is a woman.

Sure, but are you implying this is intrinsic and natural for the sexes? Because the effect of gendered socialization is immense. Society dictates from the get-go what hobbies and interests we're supposed to have based on our sex; political and religious views are strongly affected by sexism present in certain politics and religions as well as religion-related movements (e.g. misogyny in atheist communities).

>why do homosexuals not have all the dimorphic brain traits of their non-birth sex, only some? Whereas trans people have many more.
Citation on trans people having many more, when controlled for sexual orientation?
E.g. if you cite a study, it *must* be one that explicitly controlled against homosexuals.

>Really? You think there aren't any women who experience a lack of menstruation, pregnancy, and childbirth?
Sure, if we consider each of those individual "aspects" then you've successfully counted three aspects of being female which a small subset of women lack. The "one or two" wasn't meant literally, to be clear. They still experience having female phenotype from birth and being treated by society as such (the latter entailing a ton of details).

If you want, draw a spectrum from fully female to fully male; some people who are born female will lean towards the middle say because they're born infertile and don't menstruate, and some people born male will lean towards the middle say because they transitioned in childhood and were treated female starting from age 8. Now you have a tiny minority of females and a tiny minority of males whose experiences are quite similar to each other and who therefore both lean towards or fall into the middle of the spectrum. Meanwhile, the rest of MtF are still significantly on the male side, and the rest of women on the female side. So "transwomen are women" continues to be bullshit.

It's literally what you said. A penis has a urethra going through it. Men with severe hypospadias have shafts which do not have urethra going through them. Thus, they don't have penises. But penises are a trait of male genitalia. Therefore, men with hypospadias have genitalia that are neither entirely male nor entirely female (given the testicles). The point is that the masculinity and femininity of sex organs is a spectrum, just like height or brain dimensions.

>Feminine, not female. Sex != sex stereotype.
You're failing to understand the point. There are NO absolute binaries in sex characteristics. Not in chromosomes, not in genitals, not in brains, not in bodies. There is not a single trait in humans which 100% correlates with a person's sex.

And no, it's not the fault of Money's sex experiments, Reimer had GNC experiences before they started, and it's the reason reason Money even did them in the first place, because he believed they would fix Reimer's GNC traits.

Yes, there are. The SRY gene, gonads, hormone levels, and reproductive organs (ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, cervix, vagina, clitoris, labia; enlargened prostate, seminal vesicle, scrotum, penis). In ~99% of the human population, these traits are divided in two perfectly separate categories with no overlap. In an extreme minority of cases, referred to as "intersex conditions" or "disorders of sexual development" in medical language, these traits erroneously mix up.

This is unlike traits such as height, sizes of portions of the brain, voice frequency, and so on, which are spectra with normal overlap, though the overlap can be small in some.

>There is not a single trait in humans which 100% correlates with a person's sex.
You're still basing your argument on a void definition of "sex". Sex is *defined* by the aspects I listed above. You're basing it on some hypothetical or theorized aspect of the human brain which likely has significant overlap, and whose material effect on the person's life lacks any scientific evaluation. Unless you finally provide us a citation for the claim that there's a clear sexual dimorphism in the human brain where trans people clearly have the brain of the other sex?

>"[they're] intersex so they don't count"
This is a straw man argument. I said intersex and trans aren't the same thing. Most trans people are unambiguously one sex, without having an intersex condition. Whether a certain intersex person can be considered one or the other sex, or both, or neither, is a separate discussion from whether a non-intersex person can claim to be the other sex.

I've also linked a study (though the abstract doesn't mention the relevant part; I'm trying to upload a document in which the relevant part is mentioned) that shows that up to a whopping 78% of males raised as girls are fine with it.

>Intersex people are more common than trans people. Rarity is not an argument.
Rarity is an argument when you claim something to simply be a spectrum. At best, it's an extreme inverse bell curve where the middle parts of the spectrum are barely populated at all.

>Why [not comparable to height or brain size]?
Because in those cases we have a double-bell-curve with significant overlap rather than an inverse bell curve.

>A brain that is closer to a standard female brain that a standard male brain.
So let's say I'm a 100% normal male in every way and don't identify as trans or anything, but it's found out that my brain is "feminine" according to your standards. Does that make me a woman?

>just look at some of the sources I posted earlier.
Can you provide the sources again?

Yes, and? I didn't say all women would avoid all misogynist media. I said it affects their preferences.

You've taken two phrases out of context and pretend they refer to the same thing when in fact they refer to two different things.
Whether you have the SRY gene or not is an ABSOLUTE BINARY. You cannot have half an SRY gene. Now read what the ~99% clause was referring to, then go into the corner and sit there in shame.

Except no that was their context. Don't they teach you how to read or remember your own posts in Gender Studies?

No, idiot-chan. The absolute binary statement was about individual characteristics, such as the presence or absence of the SRY gene. (Admittedly, not all of the traits listed in the next sentence were well-placed. E.g. I suppose hormone levels can be somewhere in between the normal ranges for females and males if one has some special disorder.)
The 99% clause on the other hand was about the distribution of the individual absolute-binary traits. E.g. regarding one absolute binary trait you have a male trait (presence of Y chromosome), but on another you have a female trait (presence of vagina, clitoris, and labia), putting you outside the 99%.
Capiche?

>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swyer_syndrome
Has SRY gene, although it can be defective.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XX_male_syndrome
Has SRY gene, just found in an X chromosome.
