Sex vs Gender vs Orientation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- Learn the difference between sex, gender and orientation. Gender is a social construct while sex is your genetics and what lies between your legs. There can be more than one gender or sex. Orientation is about the sex-gender combination - or lack thereof - that turns us on the most. While are all very capable of selecting potential partners, the pool of people we get to choose from is subject to our autonomic arousal responses (and our intrusive romantic daydreaming).

Ok so I've been replying to a lot of comments here since this video was posted, and every time I get a new reply and come back, I can see that the like-dislike ratio is looking worse. So I wanna say something to the creators behind this channel.
As someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community in a country where "hate crime" is not even a term as those are considered more of a "service for society" by most people here, I have to say that I really appreciate this video. It is incredibly important to talk about these topics openly. And you probably knew that the response wouldn't be the best and that you might even lose some subs, but you still decided to make this video and upload it. I think that says a lot about you as human beings. My respect for you and your work has grown even more because of this. Thank you.
You just do not know anything about biology. But God will forgive you.. ahahah
That’s a long comment
Dumb learn human biology
So as long as BS makes you feel good then it deserves praise.
Yes! 🙌🏼🌈 don’t worry about those haters. 😉
This is a non-controversial comment.

I believe the Gender discussion has gone out of hand. At the gay pride in Washington last year, people were protesting because they felt excluded, while the gay pride fights for acceptence of the entire community. People come up with many genders, but keep making boxes for themselves, because they don't want to be put in a box, is counterproductive. Anyone should be able to be who they want to be and love who they want to love (as long as that person agrees).
TeamRCXD You have summed up my opinion perfectly. Labels are way too limiting. Gender and orientation are unique from person to person so there's no way that we could ever create a system that works for everyone.
TeamRCXD that's fine be who you want to be and love whatever consenting adult you want. The problem is transgender/gender nonconforming people dont exist in American society. Like it was stated in the video gender is a construct it's only meaning can come from what is made of it. In America we only identify 2 genders based purely on sex. So if you are a part of American society you can only be one of the genders. One's own gender identity means nothing if it defies the the the arbitrary limits we have on the construct.
Yes, but creating some kind of definition helps some people understand what pronouns to use and how to approach a person
SerenaIsALoser
But those people have unreasonable expectations of how much people should pander to them.
lordmew5
I agree.
There are only 2 genders in America at the present time but the nature of gender implies it could increase or decrease.
I don't mean to sound disrespectful in any way, but why do we sexualize women's chest?
Lumify | Gil THANK YOU.
Not sure.
Lumify | Gil because they turn people on
It's not sexualized for no reason, it's something men look at and find pleasure from. Men are different from women in sexual pleasure centers, as men are much more focused on the physical aspects of a woman biologically.
I think it’s because having breasts is a sign that a woman can give birth to a child or that she’s gone through puberty.
Any videos on asexuality/aromanticism?

Gender is personality and expression.
Society does assign gender rolls and that's actually good.
Bàmboo -
Why is that?
Christian Taylor ok so after your logic if my personality is actually my gender I could say that my personality is other from male or female and could make up my own gender. People who think that there are the 76 gender (there's a list online, google it) go after your logic. Like, there's the "mysterious gender" or the "small, dog-like gender" and much more garbage.
Thats when you're wrong

You say that gender is made up of gender identity and gender expression, but you don’t explain what ‘gender’ itself is. The term you’re defining cannot be included in its definition. I’d like to hear a more elaborate explanation on that.
Daniel Valcárcel Muñoz de León gender is the role that someone has in a society. It was made up so that people fit in icons rather than expressing themselves.
And most importantly,they don't actually argue why this is a social construct with a valid argument,they assume so,because of some made up preguidices and steoreotypes and this is just dumb,(for example) be a man as you want to be and as you feel to be,but you are just a man and not some demi-assault helicopter shit
Human Qrystal I'm really bad at explaining things. So here's a link en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_construction_of_gender
Aza The Motozappa click the same link if you want to. I won't bother with your irony 😂
Alright, I think I can do this.
Gender is a form identification and expression, as was shown in the video, but I agree it was very broad and vague. But gender is very complicated. I believe gender is a form of identification that mixes or excludes masculine and feminine traits normally found either in biological make-up or in a society.
Hetro, Homo, Bi, and Ace seem to be the main 4 sexualities with other labels in between. But I'm confused. There's Adroromantic, which means attraction to masculinity. How is that a sexuality?? There's an orientation for every little feeling and a label for you to pick and choose which one you want like it's some fun club and it's making very confused
NeonMix, I know. There's a name for each little ting that is slightly different from the norm and is now being pushed into the LGBT+ community. I don't want say something that might invalidate these people because they might really be gay/trans etc. but mostly because I'll get called a bigot. I just don't understand how you can believe that no one can tell you that yo might be wrong because they're not feeling the same thing you're feeling, so they don't know anything and that makes it automatically correct. There are definitions to these things like being trans. It feels like political side had taken over to the point where we have a lot of people claiming or believing they are Queer or something from brainwashing. They then tell others exactly what LGBT+ is when they themselves aren't.
Dude sexuality and gender are fluid,confusing and complicated
.I still don't fully understand it and I'm a very active member of the LGBTQ+ who does a lot of research, don't worry we'll eventually get there. :)
Black Willow, Yes I agree with you on that. I To me it seems that last of these are getting names for no reasons. I always thought these things were normal and now each small feeling that might be different is getting its own identity. I see your I just think people these days are getting way to caught up on labels.
Unfortunatly labels are how society functions, people are pressured into declaring I'm X or I'm Y, but the 'big' labels like gay or bisexual don't feel like they fit so people come up with ever more specialised labels, when in reality every single person experiences gender and sexuality in a different way, so there is no label that will ever fit everyone, except for 'human'. (and even then I feel there are some who aren't even that either)
About the question about attraction to masculinity, MY interpretation is that it doesn't really matter how you identify yourself, but if you seem more masculine than feminine they would be attracted to you. And if you're more feminine, despite your gender, then they wouldn't be attracted. I imagine it's something along those lines :'D (Then again, it's what comes to my mind when reading "attraction to masculinity", I'm in no ways an expert or something like that :'D )
If you're non binary, please don't scroll down any further. Just take this hug of appreciation and validity and flee
thanks for the warning, i shall now run.
Basically,
Sex: what you were born as
Gender: what you identify as
Sexual Orientation: what gender(s) you like
Correction. Sex: what you are born with
@@abbytrilights4692 ...was that meant to be transphobic or..?
@@skyisherelol3492 Let me explain. A transwoman was never a man. Doctor, parents, family, society tell her that she is a man but no. She was always a woman. If she was given a choice she would never be called a man just because of a penis. You are not born *as* a man because of a penis. You are just born *with* a penis.

It's really annoying how it's apparently okay for men to walk around shirtless but not women. The only difference is that one doesn't exceed how far the stomach sticks out and the other does. The stereotype on people's chests need to be gotten rid of, it can cause damage in so many ways.
Yeah guys need to wear shirts as well, trust me guys hate other men who walk around shirtless
#freethenipple
You should do a video about asexuality and the romantics and the difference between the sexualities and the romantics
FNAFnerdBonnie they did
asexuality is people who cant get laid and realized that, good for them
Robrot as an ace that is not at all what asexuality is. asexuality is a lack of sexual attraction to people. it's not a choice and asexuals can still fall in love. just because someone can't "get laid" doesn't mean that they don't have sexual attraction to other people
Yess please
FNAFnerdBonnie no you're either a heterosexual, bisexual or homosexual person who has a preference to not be in love, plus may I ask how old are you? If you're like 10-16 you probably haven't found proper love, wait and decide later if you're "asexual" but it's fine to have preferences and not make up new genders right?
i'm a girl, i hate skirts, dresses, heels and long hair (on myself). i have short hair (i got jungkook's hairstyle from life goes on in the forest a few months ago), i wear jeans, sweatpants, hoodies, sneakers. i also like girls. and because of that, most strangers think i'm a boy. i used to take it a lot more personally, now i don't really care lmao
Why did you just describe my entire life ;w;
? Ok? At the end of the day you're still a girl tho. These people are saying that because you look like a boy you might as well identify as one (or some made up gender) and that's incredibly wrong.
@@RonCrown i agree!! like damn, what does how i dress affect them in the slightest
@Aryan 764 467 you're an insecure little boy who thinks making fun of lgbtq+ people is a personality trait
There is a possibility that you are in fact not genderfluid. But it's really useless to fight about that. As a genderfluid person I can say being genderfluid at least to me, means you can be a man of culture as well as a woman of culture.
What some of you "2 genders" people seem to forget is that not everyone is the same. Not everyone is like you. Not everyone feels comfortable with being male or female and simply RESPECTING WHAT THEY WANT TO BE CALLED would solve this whole issue. I don't care if you disagree, it's the other person's business, not YOURS to tell them who they are or what they should be. It's really immature tbh
Your comment is very nice and not idiotic! I'm happy that your trying to tell people that not everyone is the same
What you seem to forget is belief does'nt beat reality, look up John Money and not your sosialy constructed cock
5 minutes for all you need to know... Can't they show this at sex ads? It's like 1/9 of the lesson
Teddy Kuma
It would have to be stressed that societies benefit from having gender roles though.
Christian Taylor you can have more than one video tho. Just make sex ad better overal
You explained this very well, but I believe the problem lies in the fact that there’s a lot of people who misuse the term gender, and use it more for describing personality rather than their sexual orientation. Also people who say they sexually identify as an inanimate object sort of ruin the whole concept of gender, because no one takes it serious and inanimate objects aren’t in anyway a sexuality. A similar argument can be made by sexually identifying as another animal, or something else that’s living, because for one it doesn’t make much sense, because it doesn’t seem right classify an animal group as a sexuality.
Wait, you also got it wrong. Gender isn't the sexual orientation of one people. It's the role they have in a society. How they feel masculine? Feminine? Both or none?
Plasticflowered ø well I didn’t know how to put it exactly, thank you for clarifying, but you also further prove my point in that if you feel masculine, feminine, both, neither, or something else, makes way more sense and can be taken way more seriously, but saying you feel like a toaster just makes you seem a bit crazy (which is off putting) because it actually does not make much if any sense
Brian Vaughn pretty much trolls and memes are taken seriously and I agree it is really annoying, considering that lgbtq+ just want respect and recognition
Plasticflowered ø you can’t say lgbtq+ it’s lgbtqia+ you could have offended me if I wasn’t feeling good about myself today.
Garry Lawson sorry my fault. The weird thing is that I'm an ace and I totally forgot the a 😂
Very informational, but these topics have too many facets to effectively possibly cover it all.
Defintely. Psych2go is more of a crash course kind of channel, but I won't be surprised if they expand on these topics in other videos.
Charlie Evangelista I hope so, I like their content
Ryan Okubo They have more content on their website. They said this at the end of the video, but it's still something to look at. Psych2go is really good at what they do, although my pessimistic mind believes that some people viewing their LGBT videos might not have an open mind with this topic.
Charlie Evangelista that is understandable, I am also very skeptical, but about everything
Ryan Okubo Honestly? Better to be skeptical about everything as long as you keep an open mind, which most skeptical people do. Most, haha.
I usually think that all of these things about gender are stupid and people are just Trying to get attention, but you guys have helped me better understand all of this but i still think this is a lot of information to go with how someone wants to live their life, i wish we could all just live peacefully and not care about the way in which someone wants to go about their life.
Yup
Kermits son
At least we enlightened someone
Kermits son You usually thought that all of these things about gender were stupid & people just trying to get attention? That's EXACTLY what's wrong with so many people.
1. I'm thankful that you're now enlightened.
2. There are still people who do that, so don't get me wrong,
3. But people shouldn't just lump the crazy extremists with every single person in that group.
Karl Batchelor His point is that we should lay off, and let people live their life. Trans people know who they are biologically, but would like to be identified differently. If that's how they want to live let them live! They are doing nothing to you!

We don't "Invent" new genders/sexuality/etc. we just give them a name that they never have, because they were never recognized.
You can say that all sparrow are sparrow, but when someone points that "This is a house sparrow, this is a wood sparrow, this is a song sparrow, and this is a White-throated sparrow", you should listen. There are no wrong in calling sparrow species by the wrong name, but when the sparrow correct you "No, i'm not a song sparrow, i'm a white-throated sparrow" you should listen to it.
We may discover more sparrow species, and you have no right to say "More sparrow? why make it complicated? it's just sparrow". We dont make the rule. It just is different. but all together it's a sparrow. It's a bird and we are all birds, we're all the same.

It is very sad that so much of our nation's youth are misguided about these topics. Thanks for shedding some light on the topic as always.
Ironic because this video is made from a misinterpretation of the subject matter, not the truth.
But there are multiple ways of analyzing it.
Please don't start a war in the comments. I was merely stating my opinion on the matter and complementing the channel.

KitKatKittens Yes well there's two main genders but there's other ones like asexual where you can basically clone yourself the one where you could change your gender like frogs and the other fucked up mutations ur XY chromosomes could go through, but humans only have male and female chromosomes even if they're fucked up you still are a male or female

Just a question, why does everyone use blue for male and pink for female? Colours ≠ Gender (my thoughts)
it actually used to be the opposite! It used to be pink for males and blue for females, and it was because of "Pink is a strong colour, perfect for the boy, while blue is a dainty colour, which is prettier for the girl"
@@random.-person the reason why it changed is actually really dark it was because they used pink triangles to identify gay men in consentration camps in ww2 so society saw that as feminine

Imagine thinking people just existing is inherently political. Touch grass.
people dont realize that personality characteristics =/= genders. just because youre a girl but youre into sports rather than the stereotypical dresses and pink clothing, that doesnt mean you identify as a boy, or identify as some made up gender. People are saying to respect these people and use the correct pronouns, but all that's doing is glorifying a mental illness. It's like calling someone who is anorexic "beautiful and healthy", but that just encourages their issue. The only exception i see with this are people who actually struggle with gender identity biologically(xxy chromosomes). I would just like to respectfully disagree with anyone who believes there are more to genders than boy and girl, and to anyone who thinks they can switch it up whenever they want; this is how I view it.
I'm a girl and I'm learning to cook because once you out of the High School doors, you realize that reality hit you harder than criminals, just saying.
3:18 "bisexual people are attracted to people of BOTH genders."
Both: used to refer to two people or things.
So you're confirming there are only two genders.
Good catch!
I think tjey were trying to say that bisexuals are only attracted to the male and female gender
Pamsexuality also exists and it defines people who are attracted to humans, so they believe in multiple genders
To clarify: Gender isn't necessarily "whatever you make it out to be", as that could be interpreted as people can identify as _anything._ What they mean is that there's male, female, and then there's the in between (or trans). Most people identify as either strictly male, or strictly female, but some people identify as trans, and there's nothing wrong with either of those things. But don't get your panties in a twist over it, it's not a big deal. If someone refers to you as the gender you don't identify with, then just politely and calmly ask them to call you by a different title. If you accidentally mistake someone's gender identity, and they politely ask for a different title, then be respectful and do as they ask. There's no need to be pushy about what you identify as, or what you think someone should be identified as. It would just make the world a slightly better place if we could all stop fretting over gender identity and move on to more important things.

Can you do a video on dysphoria and how to treat it please. Because I hate dealing with this and I know alot of other people do aswell
then don't make dumb mistakes
@@Money_Fox that’s not what dysphoria is but whatever-
I liked how the video tries to explain a complicated and nuanced topic in an approachable and non-judgemental way. One thing I would add is that not conforming to societal expectations of gender doesn’t mean that you must identify as non-binary or transgender (although it might). You may still identify with the gender you were assigned at birth (or you might not). I wanted to clarify this because there’s one part in the video where it sounded like the narrator was saying these people are by definition non-binary or transgender (e.g. a girl who likes action figures) and I’m pretty sure that wasn’t their intention. They also said that gender identity is how we identify and how we personally interpret our gender, which makes sense to me.
Finally figured myself out watching your videos

@@aster9809 cheap binders can sometimes be incredibly painful to wear and can cause more damage than getting a properly made binder from sites such as gc2b. If financially it's hard to purchase one there are giveaways like you've said that can offer them and sites such as mermaids who will be able to provide you with a properly made binder for free or minimal payment.

As someone who is technically non binary I will try to explain my point of view. I experience social dysphoria because I get extremely uncomfortable by the idea of people gendering me in general. Both male or female. I would rather be seen as a human being and I try to look as androgynous as possible. I use they/them pronouns in English. I don't believe there are 76 genders and I don't buy exotic neopronouns. I don't understand why I feel that way. Maybe there is something mentally wrong with me in that regard. Now I know there's no scientific evidence for me feeling that way and trust me I would be happy if there were. I also think it wouldn't matter to people who are not willing to expand their mindset on this topic. I don't get mad when people misgender me, because everyone does. It hurts but it's understandable. I don't demand people doing anything other than to just respect peoples opinions and feelings. I don't understand why that's such a difficult thing to do.

Neopronouns are not "exotic", or something to be "bought". They are just as valid as she/her, he/him, and they/them pronouns and help people be comfortable in the way they're addressed.
My least favourite question in the world: Are you a boy, or a girl?
That fucking professor with his stupid fucking brown fox
Im a psychology student and since i stoped with the humanists perspective to a more scientific one I realized that the fact that gender its just and only a matter of social construct is highly put into question once you enter into the world of sociobiology and evolutionary phsychology. Nature vs Nurture in a more holistic way and less idiological one I guess.
YES YES YES I've researched a lot on that, you're right!
Care to elaborate? Love to learn about a different point of view.
hey! maybe youd like to read some stuff of Steven Pinker, Edward O. Wilson or Melissa Hines! :)

Don't you know what cultures are?
And how can gender not be a social construct when it is actually something from social sciences and is indivisible dependend on culture?
Ninjaananas. I do know what cutlure is. Gender is built from a combination of biology and culture, not just biology and not just culture, someone who says the opposite is trying to sell you and idiology.

gender: identity (also only 2)

So many people think I'm a guy I honestly just don't care. I identify with female pronouns and was born a female but just use what you want.
All good, but you failed to explain what a woman and what a man is. You say gender is different that sex, it has to do with identity etc. So when someone identifies as a woman, what does that mean? What are the characteristics of a woman that this person identifies as? Is it just a word without a specific meaning?
Feminine and masculine, that was they are. Also people have their own definitions of what those mean.
@@chocobingo1929 Are you saying that the definition of woman is "a feminine person"? Masculine women do not exist? How about feminine men? Was that your best definition?
@@antwnhs213 shit your right bro, I fucked up. Thinking of it now I cant at all think of a definition for it. But do we really need definition for this stuff.
@@chocobingo1929 As long as we have women's sports, prisons, protection services, campaigns for women's rights, bathrooms, changing rooms etc yes, we need definitions. The one we had until recently worked just fine.
Woman: An adult human female.
A woman can be anything, straight, gay, masculine, feminine etc.
The confusion comes when males want to identify as women and the whole society made the word meaningless so males would not be discriminated.
Now you have Woman: A person that identifies as a woman. Which is as nonsensical as Eagle: An animal we call eagle. Tells you absolutely nothing about what a woman is, it's just a password to gain access.
@@antwnhs213 never really thought of it that way, many stuff we say to make sure trans people feel comfortable really contradicts it self and makes things complicated but either way if the word Man or Woman ever gets an actual definition that works I just hope innocent peoplearent discriminated against or killed and as someone who isnt apart of the lgbtq community and with less than a 50th of our population is trans I think I should just mind my own business.
I wish you would have talked about the difference between Romantic Orientation (r.o) and Sexual Orientation (S.O) and how you can be panromantic but heterosexual.
Kawaii Taco I was thinking that also^^ but I’m sure they will make a video on that separately sense it can get a bit more complicated and might need more explaining^^
You nailed the sex part, the orientation was OK, but you didn't explain it very well, and gender... Yeah. That's not really how gender works.
You can go about not adhering to regular sex roles but... why call yourself a boy/girl when you are not one.
Why isn't asexuality on here?..
Where do you draw the line between personality and gender? I can't tell why one is separated from the other and if is not then there is no use for the term.
They don't got one thats why they revolver their personality around their sexual atraction
I am a straight white dude, former soldier. Pretty typical vision of someone who knows nothing about any of this, but it is really cool to know more and understand those around me better, ty for the education!
It's obviously true that quite a lot can and has been said on these topics but it's nice to have a place to start
I’m a heterosexual cisgender white girl who loves shopping and wants to be a nurse
USA schools may be failing sex ed standards but schools in my country don't even talk about sex. Hell, I'm 20 and my mother is yet to give me the sex talk! Even talking about sex is taboo here. If a girl loses her virginity before marriage it becomes a huge deal among the older generation in my country. So sex ed or lack of sex ed is not only a USA centric problem, it needed here too
The absurd thing is when it comes to sports, people consider the gender of the participant. It should be obvious to anyone that sports are separated not by gender but by biological sex.
❌️
Trans men (biological females) have even more of an advantage over cis women. That's what testosterone does (this is assuming that's their transition journey, so maybe not)
I'd be super surprised if there was another asexual lithromantic non-binary person in these comments.
But hey, if you're any part of the LGBT+, I hope you're having a great day.
Sam Wildeshire What if they're not part of the LGBT?
Zer0_ Ner0 I suppose you can still have a great day. ❤
Serious question...is asexualism a choice? Also, do you enjoy being as so? My knee jerk reaction is that this is not a good outlook to have and your mind is probably full of personal torment.
What's lithromantic?
@@janLilin Lithromantic means that a person could see a person and feel a romantic attraction. But as they get to know them the feelings go away. It's basically the opposite of Demisexual
Identify as a cloud for all I care, as long as you respect me I'll respect you. But why is it that anyone identifying as anything else can say they are proud to be gay, Trans or whatever but if I state I'm a proud heterosexual man then it's automatically stated that I'm transphobe or homophobe? If you can be proud to be whatever you identify as why can't I be proud of what I identify as.
@Michael Johnson whatever dude, keep your way out in left field thinking. An according to liberal idiots you can identify as a cloud and even make up words for what you wanna be called.
Let's face reality if your born a male youll always biologically be a male, even if you chop your dick off..
I think the issue is the same as when people say that they're proud to be white. Its perfectly okay, but people rarely say it with kind intentions.
didnt this joke die out and become unfunny in like 2010?
i think that a lot of the things in this video were extremely solid and unbiased but i did notice that a couple times sex and gender were used interchangeably, after stating they are different. i’m not gonna get into my opinions but i do wanna see if y’all can make a future video like a part 2 that explains further to some younger kids who may be interested/ starting to find ideas that they can begin to ground their beliefs in. thanks!
I noticed that too... trying to educate people but can't even be consistent with their own terms/definitions. I'm honestly fed up with people trying to push their reality onto me when there is no truth, everything is relative apparently.
This is really nicely animated and very informational. Good work!
There’s three SEXES. THE PARTS BETWEEN YOUR LEGS. (Intersex)
Multiple gender IDENTITIES. HOW YOU FEEL. NOT THE SAME THING AS SEX.
Multiple gender EXPRESSIONS. HOW YOU CHOOSE TO EXPRESS YOUR GENDER IDENTITY.
And Multiple orientations for these things.
exactly. and all of the above is backed up by science!!
Actually, there are 3 sexes, because people are born intersex
Congratulations Alexander thanks for reminding me of that
Not fully correct. There are more than two sexes. Sex is dependent mostly on chromosomes and there are more than two combinations for humans.

Hey psych2go, pink💖 ain’t for girls, blue💙 ain’t for boys 💜 purple on the other hand though...
hMMMMM
I like eating paper
Look I like you guys but I will just say I dont agree with some of this.
Shank X it’s a good thing you don’t have to agree or disagree because it’s fact! You can’t just disagree with someone’s gender, it’s still an intrinsic part of their being.
Look gender wise I do not care about the pink for girls and blue for boys type of stuff you can dress and act how ever you want but lets say on a piece of identification you must wright down your sex you may feel like your a girl but physically your a boy the only time I can see that changing is if you are on hormones or have gone threw surgery. And with orientation I think straight bi and gay are the only 3 we need everything else makes it more complicated then it has to be. If you want to question me I am happy to have a discussion.
same
Yeah, I have to agree with Shank X as well. I believe there are two genders, male and female. Though I’m open to new ideas so long as there are real and scientific evidence of other genders that exist. Like transgender people, there’s proof that transgenderism is real and I believe that you need gender dysphoria to be trans.
No disrespect, just throwing it out there.
Shank X While it is great to see that you’re more tolerant than most people, i will have to disagree with you on the fact of there only needing to be 3 sexual orientations. There are more than just those 3. This doesn’t make things more complicated, it actually makes things more simple, this diversity of sexual orientations give people a label that fits them more accordingly. While labels generally aren’t good, in the LGBT community, they help identify our gender, sexual orientation(s) and romantic attraction(s)
are humans the only animal that can identify as a specific gender? i know other animals can have different orientations. also if a wolf identify as a woman rather than a man, or neither, why would it matter?
Natural selection gets rid of specimens that don't behave as their sex because they are not attractive to the animals with the other genitalia. They are not functional and can't share their genes with the next generation. But the human species has been fighting natural selection in a lot of ways, that's why it's way more common here.

People confuse this three?
Sex is genitals
Gender is how you feel and what pronouns u want people to use when they talk about u
And orientation is who you want to love
(To sum up i guess)
John Money agrees, and he loves children, alot, very much, touches them even
Sex and gender are same thing .
People with a penis act like men and are masculine and use he/him
People with a vulva act like women and are feminine and use she/her
I'm a biological male, but all my life I've had this particular fixation on femininity. And within the last year and a half, having freed myself from the residual effects of a brainwashed childhood, I've started taking up crossdressing and exploring my feminine side more thoroughly. Maybe I fall somewhere on the spectrum? I'm not sure. I'm hesitant to make any conclusive statements here as I know so little about modern ideas of gender identity and have only just recently started learning things about myself that I never even realized.
You're still male. Your personality just gravitated to this because that's the activities you like to partake in. This gender thing is nonsense. Activities you partake in do not make you a woman. Enjoy your crossdressing and dont let people make you feel bad about it.

Great video otherwise though! I sent this to some family members who were curious to learn more about the LGBTQ+ community!
sorry but there are only 2 genders.
What about cats and dogs
@@springtime44 what about them? I’ve had both as pets 🥰 lmao
Bi means 2 tho. As in men and women, does'nt matter If they are this or that mentaly its an atraction of physical bodies. Everyone is attracted to people hovever
Bisexuality has always implied being attracted to BOTH of the only two genders, hence the bi.
HAPPY PRIDE MONTH GUYSSSSSS!!!

No thanks, i don't need a birthday party for my sexuality
THANK YOU FOR THIS
My position is that they are just words. Traditonally "gender" has simply been a synonym for biological sex. I'm still good with that.
People of either gender can feel however they want. And they do. But it's insulting when someone says they "feel like a woman" or "feel like a man", because what they're really doing is promoting stereotypes that don't apply to millions of men and women.
I view trans people as troubled individuals. They can change their appearance, and use affected mannerisms, but their gender does not change. As long as I'm not paying for their elective surgery, I won't mind (though I probably am paying through my insurance policy, so I do mind after all). But they need to compete in the proper bio category for sports.
Agreed.
Yes I agree with you but gender is smth that is important for us to understand how certain groups of people are treated, just like race both are social constructs and both need to be abolished but we are currently not in the state to do that because we can clearly see that the role a person's race and gender play within society shows how they are perceived within society. It is important to maintain race and gender atleast until the patriarcal society is abolished.
@@thivjan3022 Well what I was saying is that word definitions matter. I understand that many and maybe most people now use "gender" to mean something very nebulous, really just a set of attitudes that line up with stereotypes that don't often match reality.
But if we use a different word, and say "personality" instead of "gender", then it puts things into perspective.
In other words, I consider gender to be between male and female, whereas the trans movement considers gender to be between masculine and feminine.
But then the question arises, what is masculine and why can't women feel that way without declaring as a man?
Likewise, what is feminine and why can't a man feel feminine without declaring as a woman?
Also I would not say the race is primarily a social construct. I would say it's primarily a biological reality, even though the delineation is blurry, just like when describing colors in the spectrum.
One could even go so far as to say that society is primarily a racial construct, of course there are many factors involved.
This was surprisingly well done! Both Alex in the original writing, and Catherine with the video script, did an excellent job in presenting their findings. I just wish the sources to the actual psychological research was more readily available in both mediums.
69th liker, i'll have you know
The issue we need to fight is actually GENDER STEREOTYPE ROLES!!.
I can be male and love pink (i actually do) and its totally fine. I'm still male. Womanhood is a social construct, it changes in every culture the expectations of women. This is where people get confused. The similarities in gender/sex are due to the fact that biological females/males have traits that are common to them cross culturally because of pure biology. Female brain has specific traits, the same goes for males. Then society adds its expectations on us too.
And if gender is a social construct why do you need to transition to feel accepted. Does a change of perspective and mind not enough? Or maybe leaving the place in which you dont feel comfortable in your skin to another place where gender stereotypes are not that crazy. Or better being a part of this movement against gender stereotypes!!!
Bcos I personally think when you transition society wins. The new transitioned you is still connected to what society expects a sex certain sex to behave. (I.e being able to use make-up now as a transwoman is still a social construct, who said only women can use that? Society! You are still living a according to the social construct!!
And furthermore you also prove the point that sex and gender are intrisincally connected and not that separated as the preach it!! Since you feel transitioning would get you closer to your gender expression

to sum it up:
1) sex is prenatal dna
2) transgenderism is egoist consumerist culture
3)orientation is preferences for what feels good currently (neurocircuitry, learned preference, conditioning, the whole shebang)

I feel like the description of "sex" could be expanded upon a little- not only can physical characteristics betray genetic makeup, your genes aren't always strictly "xx" and "xy". There are several genetic disorders that result in "x", "xxy", "xxxy", so on and so forth. Here's a complete list: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_chromosome_anomalies
So the definition of "sex", even separated from gender, is not black-and-white. And this is hard biological science, not psychology.
Hopefully this gives people a bit of context when considering the grey areas of self-identified gender.
Basic facts told in this video...ignorant dislikers shall open up their minds
Basic facts like sex = gender and feelings wont warp that
Sex, boy. Gender identity, boy. Outward gender, more on the feminine side. Gender expression, non-binary. Sexual orientation, heterosexual.
Gender is complicated, but this video helped me alot.
Hi! I'd like to clear something up, 'Non binary' isn't a type of gender expression, it's an identity. I think what you meant was androgynous (laments terms: presenting as a mixture of masculinity and femininity, or, lack there of feminine and masculine qualities)

Because, a tomboy isn’t always stereotyped as lesbian, but when u get a guy doing
Girly things he is considered gay. Now I’m not hating on gay but it’s kinda frustrating

Thank you for educating people on it. So many people arent educated on this and what's even worse is that many people ( for example older generations, parents, grandparents....) are really close minded about this and very conservative. They always say that "intersex doesnt exist " or "people are just sick in head and none of this is real and world has gone crazy". And it seriously makes me feel so sad and angry at in my case my parents. But I've come to a conclution that no matter what I say they'll just start calling me crazy so it's just waste of time. But I'm still really happy there are still videos on this topic and there are still people who care to explain. Thank you for your videos💖🌈🏳️🌈

Imagine going to school or work everyday and knowing that there will always be someone who hates you, no matter what you do, because of something you can control.

How is gender a social construct though?Im not saying that gender Roles are not a construct because yes there are men who are feminine and women who are masculine but gender in it of itself is in your brain it is how you perceive yourself, if gender isnt real at all then how can there be such a thing as gender dyspohira then?
Just a reflection about if orientation is "which gender we like". Would that mean that if a girl has gender boy, and boy has gender boy, and they like each other - they are gay?
yeah they would be gay

3:07 Oh you messed up so badly here, the literal definition of heterosexual is to be attracted to the opposite sex but here you're saying it's the opposite gender. And right after that you did the same with the definition of homosexual. So you are in fact admiting that sex and gender are correlated. Just a proof that you can't even defend your "logic" properly.
No, straight people ARE attracted to people of the opposite GENDER ,not sexuality. If straight people are attracted to people of opposite sexuality, that means that person is not straight, hence what you stated is a fallacy. Homosexuals are attracted to people of the SAME GENDER, SAME SEXUALITIES too. However, a gay guy could be with a bi guy and a bi girl and be with a lesbian girl. That is perfectly normal
