Does this not mean there are no makes or females in the US, only undefined?
It’s cool and all to dunk on their logical fallacies, but don’t think for one second that their poor wording will stop them from enacting untold violence against trans people.
Maybe this will help now to make visible the issues of the new female population
The new female population makes up, worldwide about 75% to 80% of all the suicides
They also die nearly 6 years before the old female population
The new female population, also gripes with mental health professionals usually offering the same options for treatment to old and new female population.
Not only that, when controlling for job title, experience and education as well as number of hours worked the pay gap is only 1%, between the old female population, which in that case earn 99 cents for each dollar earned by each member of the new female population.
…that’s not how that works.
Early stages of development are bipotential, which means they could develop either way, they’re not initially female.
Around 6-7 weeks, if carrying a Y chromosome carrying the gene SRY, they develop into testes. If there are two X chromosomes, then ovaries develop.
…So we’re all legally non-binary? NBs rise up!
This. It’s incredible how people miss this little important fact
The fem-cel community has already accepted me even though I’m a cis straight white guy who’s asexual (so voluntarily celibate) but I’m happy I can now finally check one box and accept myself as a femcel.
“All female employees must pose nude if requested”
y hallo my new fellow laydees
Ladieez nutz
Yipeeee :3
(Sucks for my ftm homies tho)
Trump increases the wage gap rather unconventionally.
What a roundabout way to get unisex bathrooms.
Congratulations to women, your public bathrooms will be less crowded. To my trans brothers and sisters, see you at the sink!
I was under the impression that the sperm that fertilizes the egg carries either an X chromosome or Y chromosome and that’s what determines male or female. So that would mean conception is in fact when this gets decided, no? What am I missing here?
You can have XY chromosomes and develop a vulva and uterus. The determining factor is activation of the SRY gene of an XY karyotype then develops as a male. These individuals generally don’t experience puberty without hormone replacement therapy, due to the lack of hormone producing gonads.
Sex isn’t directly determined by chromosomes, it is determined by someone taking a look at the sex organs. This works for most people, but embryonic development is like most things complicated and there are a lot of factors that make it more difficult than “male” and “female”. Examples are people with more than 2 chromosomes or that have absorbed a sibling in the womb. Difference of sex development is estimated to affect 1/100 people.
So when the doc takes a look just before 6 weeks, she must declare “the embryo has ovaries and no testes - female” at every single person. At literal conception: “Idk know, man, it is just 1 cell”.
Sex isn’t directly determined by chromosomes, it is determined by someone taking a look at the sex organs.
I mean that’s how it’s usually observed, but not how it’s determined. Those sex organs get there somehow. The general rule is that if you have a heightened level of androgens and nothing preventing you from responding to them at a certain point in fetal development then you develop male sex organs, if not you develop female sex organs. Barring some other medical disorder, those heightened androgens that masculinize the fetus are triggered by the action of the SRY gene on a Y chromosome.
Difference of sex development is estimated to affect 1/100 people.
If you include absolutely everything, yeah. But someone with Klinefelter’s is in terms of sexual function male (if less fertile), someone with XXX is in the same way female, XX people with CAIS are in the same way female, etc. Cases where there’s ambiguity in sexual function are much more rare.
But really all this is like making the argument that gloves shouldn’t come in pairs with five fingers per glove because rarely people are born with syndactyly, polydactyly, etc. Like the definition Trump uses is stupid and wrong (not least because no one is producing gametes at conception) and it’s at least even odds it makes him non-male since at his age he’s probably shooting blanks, but to pretend that sex in humans doesn’t come in two categories and an assortment of rare conditions in which something went wrong genetically or developmentally is kinda silly.
Your Gloves comparison is pretty flawed, though.
We don’t require everyone to wear a pair of gloves at all times. We don’t put glove data on legal forms, we don’t use gloves to classify a critical element of our sense of self. We don’t make changing your glove type illegal, costly, or incredibly difficult. We don’t make getting 4 or 6 finger gloves illegal. We don’t force people with 6 fingers to get one chopped off. We don’t exclude people who are missing a hand entirely from society. We don’t publicly demonize people with 4 fingers.
Yes, the proportion of people impacted is small, but the impact to those people is not. We can’t just call it “Good enough” because it works for 99% of the population when the 1% it definitely doesn’t work for is being absolutely ruined by it, especially if the exceptions that serve that small population are being systematically eliminated so that their existence is either suffering or criminality.
Also, imagine how awkward it is to be the determining doc in that situation.
Trump abolished gender reveal parties, which is kinda positive honestly
which i’m pretty sure were a direct response to the rising discourse on gender and transphobia….
Less ecological damage for sure. No more random air cannons of confetti or balloon launches.
This was the only possibility for the Incel Movement to ever get touched by a
womenfemale. Congrats to them.I didn’t consider this option, but it seems to be an easy fix to the whole gender thing. Everyone is female. period. *(no pun intended)
Own that period joke. You conceived it, whether accidental or not, so you should carry it to term.
so you should carry it to term.
Are required to carry it to term. Aborting the pun is a crime.
chefs kiss
There sure are a lot more lesbians than there used to be.
Turns out they were always asking, “What is a woman?” because they had no idea either.
It’s a bad faith question that deserves a hillarious answer
“What is a woman? Why it’s someone whom, family members aside, you’ve never seen naked.”
“What is a woman? The kind of people at the bar who cover their drinks when you get too close.”
“What is a woman? A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS!”
“What is a woman? Well these curvy people who smell nice and go by she/her pronouns and sometimes they have big meaty penises to suck, but only if you’re lucky.”
The best part is that a good faith answer to the question is surprisingly trans affirming
Share it with the rest of the class
That’s always what I figured, that they’d fumble if you turned the question around and asked them to define woman or man. Buncha chumps.
E: le spelling
Nah, they have no issue with a tautological definition. “A woman is a female human that’s born a girl” makes perfect sense to anyone that’s asking anyone else to define what a woman is.
They had months to draft the definition in the executive order. Perhaps more than a year if it was started internally by Project 2025. They still fucked it up.
