@Despize Perform Gender is how you’re perceived by society; it has nothing to do with ones’ identity. Anything after that is subjective feelings about ones’ identity as a whole. That’s why it’s usually so strongly associated with superficial stereotypes related to gender to start with.
@Despize Perform its "subject" to what you present to the people around you and what they decide to label you... doesn't make it objectively true. Anyone can throw on a wig and smear on some makeup. Some people will think you're just some lady, depending on how convincing you are. Others will think you're a man in a dress, and likely to sexually assault someone. What isn't subjective about that?
@Despize Perform no, that's personal identity. No one feels like a girl or feels like a boy. Society has a roll for you to fill. A place for you to go depending on many characteristics including your personal identity, and what gender you're boxed into. Take a sociology class. Maybe try an anthropology course as well. If you're having gender identity issues, it is completely based on how you want other people to treat you. And just because you want to be treated like a pretty pretty girl or a big tough guy, it doesn't make you actually one or the other. That's a fantasy.
@Despize Perform imagine you slid out of a womb onto a desolate desert island. Would it be possible to feel like you had a gender identity issue? Without anyone around you to convince? You're confusing yourself. I'm not calling gender personal identity. They are distinctly different, which is a bummer for people who want being transgendered to make them interesting. The entire argument is just double think. "Just because I'm a boy, it doesn't mean I have to like the color blue and guns, but if I'm a girl and I like the color blue and guns, I must actually be a boy. I feel it deep down!" These ideas don't come from the individual, they're arbitrarily assigned by your society at large and if you adapt the right and wrong attributes, all of a sudden you got yourself a personal identity that's 'gender fluid'. My thesis is, be who you are. Like what you like. If your genitals are stressing you out, or the fact that you are the sex you were born, that's a terrible mental affliction and you would probably benefit from therapy. Wishing you were a different gender doesn't make it so. SAS and hormone therapy can't magically make you a different gender.
@Despize Perform Gender identity is a social construct that you either buy into, or don't. And if you don't, you never have to mutilate yourself to feel more like another gender because you'd be trying to please others rather than yourself.

Yup. Actually, I think she's correct that 'non-binary' is the truly erroneous notion in all of this. Male versus female is a chromosomal and binary condition. (The partial exception being intersex conditions - which are not transgender). However, if people choose to distinguish between 'gender' and 'biological sex', that's their perspective - no biggie. But 'non-binary' sex/gender does not really occur in any form of life, and certainly not in mammals. Certain types of fish can genuinely change biological sex, but they become one or the other. To claim a non-binary status is therefore to claim that your condition sets you apart more from other people than it does from fish or reptiles - which simply sounds like what we call 'alienation', not a medical issue. (Excuse wordy reply - the science is all a bit scientific. Lol).

I like that she can acknowledge that having masculine or effeminate qualities doesn't automatically make you the opposite gender. A huge problem with modern day gender ideology is that it makes young people confused about themselves.
Yeah bro. Me myself there are many feminine aspects I find appealing, especially hair care.... However, I'm a born and bred man, and will continue to be.
@@shizuwolfWhen I hear many young people speak about gender, they have very rigid ideas of what it means to be male or female. Their views actually reflect the 1950s. They also don't seem to be aware that being gender bending was pretty common in the 1990s through the 2010s. To them, a feminine man or a masculine woman is automatically trans, which is baffling to me, as someone born in the early 1980s.
People confuse "Gender" with personality. There are INFINITE personalities, everyone has a different personality and that is what makes life so beautiful. But what happens is people try to associate their personality and put an official gender name to it, when there is no need to. The fact is, your gender is what you biologically are. Your personality can be whatever you want
Although you can have a biological disconnection with your BODY nothing with personality which makes you transgender but people be identifying as non binary because of their PERSONALITY
I'm a feminine looking woman, but growing up I've always felt more masculine. I lacked interest in feminine things and got along better with boys. Today this means I'm a different gender when in reality there are different ways of being female and I fully embrace my femininity as well as my ruggedness. As an adult now, I let reason and rationality lead the way, not emotion. I've never felt more free than to come to full grip of reality. Sadly and ironically, people today lead their lives with emotion which leads to more emptiness and depression.
@Heb725 When experts say sex is on a spectrum they generally don't mean there are a million sexes. They mean you can be born with varying traits. For instance, you can be born with a female brain and a male reproductive system, and male body. Your brain is always going to know your female but will be more okay with these changes if you start at a young age because these traits than match female more than if you wait to adulthood.
@@jameswhite3415 That's fine as an adult. Until we figure out how to completely rebuild a person as the opposite gender and back again we can't do that to minors though.
@@jameswhite3415 Sorry James but what you are saying is not scientific. Sex is not on a spectrum. They are distinct categories. Their non-physical traits may exist on a spectrum, like interests, mannerisms, agreeability etc. For example we can have masculine women or feminine men. However, sex is a biological reality. In the example you gave (a male with a so-called female brain), the body will always "know" it is male. Your argument is actually self-defeating--to say there is a spectrum of sexes, while also saying their traits belong to male and female categories.
@@jameswhite3415 Plus it doesn't make sense if the problem is biochemical in nature (which I can agree in some cases of gender dysphoria), to choose physically altering the body as a solution to a biochemical problem.
I'm pretty leftist or whatever tf it's called but when she said "I think we can advocate for equal rights for trans and intersex people without having to reconceptualise what sex and gender are" that describes it perfectly to me.
but can we? I don`t think so. Gender dysphoria is a serious mental issue which defiantly puts limitations on an individual who has it. So we can talk about compassion and respect towards these people but equal rights are just not achievable.
Can anyone actually explain what it is to "feel" like a man or a woman? I've been a man for 24 years but I have no idea how it feels, I only know how it feels to be me. Does "feeling" like the opposite gender mean you just enjoy things that they stereotypically like? Why can you not just be a feminine man or a more masculine girl? Genuinely interested in any answers to this, regardless of whether you believe you can change gender or not.
I agree. IMO I think that people just feel what they know they want/are attracted to based off of “social constructs”. If F likes F, historically a “man/male” is traditionally attracted to F so they think they a Male bcuz they’re attracted to F. I may be crazy.
My bestfriend is Straight, and a born a male. He went thru a phase where he thought was Non Binary for a moment. He explained it as he didnt feel like his interests and behaviour fell into the male category (beer,sports,fishing fighting etc) nor did he fall into the female category (fashion,dramas,makeup gossiping etc). After discussing this with him I realized that people may claim a seperate gender just because what they end up being interested in is not what society has raised them into thinking their interests are as a male or female. When in reality you can be a woman who likes all those stereotype things or a male who likes the opposite. Im not sure if this helps you but this is how my friend explained to me how it felt.
@@marble25 I know how I feel about my life. We are talking about people who feel as if they are the opposite gender. They could be a man that feels they are a woman but wants to be with other women, or they want to be with men. I think OP is trying to see their perspective.

I was told I was gay all through Highschool. I knew I wasn’t but I was extremely tall for my age, was very skinny and extremely awkward. I grew up in the military and my father, who was what liberals would define as the embodiment of toxic masculinity, was the extremely abusive. Throughout highschool I avoided anyone or anything that reminded me of him (people who liked sports, shooting, cars, outdoors anything) and eventually I found video games which made the time pass by relatively quickly. Years later I’m married with two kids and after years of being married I eventually became comfortable with stereotypical masculine activities. However, I could easily see how if someone in my situation had been comfortable going to therapy, which I wasn’t, they could have been easily manipulated into thinking they were either homosexual or a woman.
I'm happy you share about this because it highlights the stereotyping many use when calling someone gay. If someone isn't a "stereotypical" man or woman, many assume he or she is gay, lesbian or transexual. Many online try to say that tomboys or thinner, gentler male characters in popular media are homosexual because of these atypical qualities. The only makeup I wear is lipstick and I used to dress down a lot when I was younger; I wonder if people automatically assumed I was a lesbian because of that.
This touches on an important point: a lot of “trans” and “queer” discourse actually is based on stereotypical understanding of what it means to be a man or woman. One of many problems with the logic behind trans ideology.
One thing I learned in construction is supposed tough guys are super concerned about what other men eat, drink, breathe, if they are single or not. A lot of fake tough guys out there. Worry about yourself, not what I do.

I got no research on the sujet honestly, the last research i really dived into that was remotely related was updated Kinseyan scale sexuality stuff which i do understand is a separate issue. I hear, as does everybody these days, a lot of talk about non'binary, trans, gender fluidity. I myself have had some amount of these thoughts and emotions as a young person so i understand there is truth behind gender confusion or that other word i can't remember (maybe dismorphia, idunno). But i frankly have no idea who to read that actually has real research because while this lady may be parroting, as @robin hogan is saying, a pretty typical normie desired worldview on this topic, i find any advocate for the trans or gender fluid argument doesn't use much evidence either and seems to parrot their own agenda... and you gotta understand from a teen to now i have been thinking armchair thoughts (i dont have time for lota of article reading/research, got shit to do) about the philosophical, societal, and psychological factors involved in this sort of thing. That said i would like to know if there is some easily digestible research out there on the matter... and holy fuck this is long
Gender has moved from tangible measurable metrics of biology, to intangible metrics of personal feelings and opinions. It has transitioned from objective fact to subjective opinion. When your gender is whatever you want it to be, it stops serving an objective purpose.
That is not entirely true, atleast for FTM and MTF transgender people, because many studies have shown that the brain structure of transgender individuals more closely resembles thier gender identity, and in many cases to a T. Yes a Trans Man will still go through women’s puberty. Non-Binary, I will admit, hard to find evidence for or against.
A trained resistance to cognitive dissonance. Typically, it's uncomfortable to hold opposing opinions together in the same headspace. For whatever reason (which I am sure there are many), people just roll with it instead of being so bothered by it that they actually stop and figure out what the problem is with the feeling of discomfort. Then they blame reality instead of recognizing the problem with themselves. It's probably more complicated than this, but it's a theory I've been kicking around for awhile now. I think it is systemic and no one group is better or worse than others regarding this kind of behavior. But I do feel that it plays a major part in our current paradigm of misinformation. Might help explain the abundance of medicated individuals, no doubt headmeds play a role in the lack of action concerning cognitive dissonance. I dunno, maybe I am way off but it feels somewhat accurate. ETA: the permissiveness of it probably happens because no one has any kind of drive to understand the issue. They just want the dopamine hit of acceptance regardless of merit.

I’m a Tomboy and no one has brought up if I could be trans. I honestly think a lot of this gender non conforming stuff is all to do with trends in high school. I saw the same thing when I was a teen (transgenderism wasn’t a thing) but being bi or a lesbian was all the rage. You could tell most of the girls at my school we’re just in it for the “trend” factor 🤦🏻♀️now they are back to being strait and housewives 🤷🏻♀️🤔 I was not happy being objectified as a woman and so strapped down my boobs in high school, I think a lot of women/girls are converting their sex has a lot to do with not wanting to be noticed or objectified on a subconscious level. That’s what was happening to me without realizing it. If transgenderism was I thing when I was a teen I bet I would have convinced myself I want to be male as I didn’t know how to put into words how and what I was feeling. But I’m female and happy to stay that way and to be honest wouldn’t want to be a male as they are the ones that made me feel objectified, made me feel uncomfortable as a female.
When I was a little kid, my closest adults were women - my mother and grandmother. I watched a lot of shows about women and women's lives. I began to pretend to breast feed my teddy bears and I used to do that constantly. My mother and grandmother did not scold me. They did not yell at me or mistreat me. They simply taught me about how women have the ability to feed children with their breasts and men do not. They taught me the difference between the two sexes; the clear and defined biological differences. Over time, I got it. I understood and little by little that childhood phase left me completely. I am a perfectly happy heterosexual cis - gender male with many LGBTQ friends. I support the right of Gay couples to marry. I support the right of trans people to join the military and the right of adults (not children) to choose to transition. I think the notion of allowing children - who literally know NOTHING about who they really are - to dictate whether they should choose to be male or female (or some weird neo-limbo non-binary state) is insane. The thought of what would have happened to me if I were a child living in today's society and my parents would have been a pair of ultra - left "woke" individuals is horrifying to me. If an adult wishes to live as Non-Binary, that is fine. If an adult wishes to use the strange they/them pronoun, that is fine and it is that individual's right. And it IS strange because "they" is a PLURAL noun, NOT a SINGULAR noun. And THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING STRANGE. I have my own strange leans. I like to watch horror movies to sleep. That is STRANGE. I acknowledge this. I accept it. Accept your strangeness and be comfortable with it, but don't pretend that it is the norm. And for G-d's sake, stop trying to muddle the waters for children whose minds need direction. If a child shows signs of transgender identity (as I did as a child), gently and lovingly teach that child the biological differences between the sexes. Reinforce that teaching gently, with love - not with shame. Continue to reinforce it, because it will take time for the child to catch on. If the child reaches adulthood and he or she is STILL convinced that he or she needs to transition, THEN - AND ONLY THEN - as an adult, should the option for a surgical transition be considered.
In the United States it is already illegal to do most gender affirming surgeries on anyone under the age of 18. The sole exception to this are some states which allow breast enlargement or reduction to be performed as young as 16, but this is a simple and easily reversible procedure, and they have to be living full time as their identified gender for years for this to even be an option. The earliest form of medical transition is puberty blockers which delay some effects of puberty (essentially resulting in a more 'androgenous' appearance that can easily present as either gender) and have no permanent effect when the drugs are removed, and they can only be used as young as 10 years old. Very few people start transition this young. Hormone replacement therapy can cause more permanent changes over a long timespan, but the minimum age for that is 16, so when they reach adulthood a person who grew up transgender won't have any irreversible changes to their body. Only on reaching adulthood do more permanent surgeries become an option. And every part of this process requires approval from psychiatrists and physicians. All this outrage about surgeries on grade schoolers or whatever is based on misinformation. As someone who didn't figure out for sure they were trans until several years into adulthood, it would have saved me a lot of grief to grow up in an informed and accepting environment where I would have felt safe to ask questions and experiment with my presentation and, when I was old enough, take medical measures to prevent the now irreversible changes to my body that will cause me distress for the rest of my life.
Your experience isn't identical to everyone else's. You're not trans. That's why your story went where it went. Now just imagine how different your life would have been if you were trans and had to spend years trying to convince yourself that you weren't just to appease your family and everyone else around you. Then when the 2010's roll around and attitudes toward trans people starts to change you finally accept who you are but you are now so far into being a man that the rest of your life will be even more of a struggle as you work to present feminine and have to have conversation after conversation with the people you know just to justify who you are. Then you lose some friends because they think you're insane and maybe even have to cut ties with family members who don't understand you because you never got the chance to express yourself earlier in life. Kinda sucks, right?
@@redveinborneo4673 Your comment is quite confusing. "you are so far into being a man","more of a struggle to present feminine" Can you even define what trans means?
@@FreeState.21ST I think they meant that the trans person was so used to acting like somebody who they weren't, that they couldn't get out of this narrative they built up their entire lives Lemme try to make it a bit clearer with an example- Say a trans man (as in, somebody born a female who identifies as a male) lived their entire life growing up as a girl, trying to ignore how they genuinely felt because they wanted to appease their family, trying to fit in with society, etc. etc. Now suddenly, society has started to change the way they view trans people. They start to be a little more accepting. The trans man may want to fully transition now, since they see an opportunity to live a happy life in a society that won't shame them for their nature. Buuuuut since they grew up as a girl, they might find that to be difficult. They only own feminine clothing, all their friends only know them as a girl, their name might be super feminine, and all of that. It'd take time to buy a whole new set of clothing, to come out to every single one of their friends (who might take it super badly and leave them or worse), and more Does that clear up the confusion? ^^"
Feel I need to put this out because it's probably rare information: many years ago I was going through really bad psychological issues and an interesting thing started happening - I started being more comfortable with "femininity" over masculinity. Masculinity seemed alien to me despite being a man and I felt more comfortable with the idea of the feminine. After doing the inner work and going for therapy multiple times it became obvious that for me (can only speak for myself), due to father issues and years of experiences with violent boys at school and growing up around many women - it became a coping mechanism. My mind had been conditioned to see masculinity as dangerous from a young age (unintentionally) and unsurprisingly I even experienced dissociation from my body for years. Not claiming I am a scientist, but I couldn't help but wonder that if didn't do the inner work to recover for years would I have had a different perspective on this? Would I have projected it onto society? Now masculinity is normal to me, and I feel pretty balanced in both "energies" but I'm still a man.
Thank you for sharing your personal experience, that’s very brave of you! The more people like you talk about stuff like this I feel like the more people can be understanding and accepting of others.
Another alternative is for people to just accept that they prefer feminine things. That doesn't change someone's sex. I have friends that are very feminine. But never have they ever entertained the idea that maybe they're not really male. They like what they like. Transgender activists though would try to convince them that they're really a woman trapped in a man's body, and their refusal to acknowledge this is because society is oppressing them.
Exactly, unfortunately most people are not open minded, IMO. It doesn't bother how someone else wants to live their personal lives and long as it doesn't infringe upon others.

It honestly depends on where you reside. “Abnormal” psychological behavior is determined by what a society agrees is deviant, dangerous, distressful, and/or dysfunctional (i.e., what is socially acceptable). Socially acceptable and non-socially acceptable behavior can change depending on a society’s attitude to said behavior (e.g., interracial marriage, homosexuality, segregation). Your argument was used to keep races apart and keep homosexuals out of the military (among other things). Though most or some might share your view, it’s clear society is changing their attitude.
V G I understand your point completely. However, I think the issue is that trans issues often are related to very serious mental health issues; the suicide rate for trans people is horrifyingly high, and I do not accept the response that this is due to bullying. It speaks to the presence of problems that need real professional help. But to suggest that many kids who are trans may also suffer from related mental health problems has become hate speech in 2020. Not because trans = mental health, but because trans feelings often stem from other issues and not a simple desire to be different.
Yep, psychological issue totally agree. I know you didn't say or even imply otherwise, but obviously we must have great sympathy for people with these conditions, especially since there's likely nothing we can do about it, at least for a long, long while until technology comes further; and even then, there may be more implications with a "fix"; a lot of it will probably be manufactured i.e. "correcting dwarfism is offensive to dwarves because you're saying their very core self is undesirable or inferior" blah blah, but some of it may in fact be a genuine moral quandary.

@Mice Elf or the stereotypical father who wanted boys to play catch with. I think gender deviations are mostly kids trying to get attention or approval from adults as kids, or peer group as teens (and autistic)

@@christianc.christian5025 saying someone had XX or XY chromosomes is biology. Though biology has no bearing on what is 'manly' or 'girly', those are all social constructs
The fact based narrative is that there are two sexes, but a wide variety of genetic conditions that can alter how you look and feel. And historically, there have been many cases where parents have made decisions based on those genetic abnormalities to raise their kids with gender norms the opposite of the actual biological sex. Most people aren't aware of this because they don't actually study the history of the genetic conditions. You can be born technically male, but have both genitalia. Or undeveloped male organs and hormonal issues that alter looks, behavior because of genetic changes. There are even historical cases of men with vaginas--naturally. It is not a stretch at all to understand why people would be raised a certain way or why they might, psychologically, think a different way. Psychological states are also influenced by chemical states, brain development, etc.
Winston Sol speaking as someone who has asked this question to people who don’t identify with their assigned sex at birth, they describe it as being uncomfortable with their private parts. There’s also been studies that showed some trans people’s brains actually resembled, structurally and functionally, to the gender they identify with rather than their biological sex.
As a trans woman, my conversations with modern trans activists goes as follows: 1. Me: *breathes* 2. Other trans activists: *"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE TRANS- YOU'RE TRANSPHOBIC!"*
funnily enough, most of these activist aren't trans themselves and don't even represent the trans community, otherwise they would have listened to your complaints.
if you believe there are only 2 genders you are transphobic, bc non-binary people are under the trans umbrella. sometimes people specify it to “enbyphobia” but i don’t particularly care for that term.
Rogan highlights a good point when he asked her, "How do you feel more masculine?" When ultimately personality traits, at least in the modern world, are no more male or female. Gender is a biological identity, it doesn't extend to our personality anymore, as the the gender roles are fluid in our modern society and either male or female can display traits of aggressiveness or hyper sensitivity... etc So just because a male born individual has the generalised stereotype temperament of a women, doesn't mean they've been born into the wrong body. Both male and females are born with the same spectrum of emotions and capabilities for these temperaments.

@@77XTINA if there are demonstrably two categories of anything, i.e. everything is either 0 or 1.. black or white.. then she must be able to give a precise definition of exactly what qualifies as each of those categories. I'm a bit disappointed that JR didn't push her on this. If [her research] "science" proves that there are exactly two genders, then she must be able to give those precise definitions and we can exactly categorise every single person easily. I'm very liberal but I do respect Joe's approach in general. But he dropped the ball here. Maybe he was just smitten as others have suggested heheh.
When girls say they felt more like boys when they were younger, honestly most young girls were Tom boys. I was a Tom boy when I was younger I fought boys, I played sports I was like a boy, but that doesn’t mean I have an inner masculine or I’m innately male. I think women need to differentiate that.
@MIAH RICKERT Are you triggered or something? Saying one was/is a tomboy does not mean they're doing it to "get ze man" or whatever you're projecting unto others. In fact, most men prefer a feminine woman 9 times out of 10 which is perfectly understandable. Wtf is wrong with you people lately, you jump at any opportunity to label and assume whatever filth you have in your puny brain. Pathetic
i don't understand this ''i feel like a woman or i feel like a man'' , i feel like a man because i am one. Doing things that a man might do, doesn't make you more male it just makes you a woman who enjoys those things.
The whole point is that it's your fucking choice and no one can decide for you, even if you get to the conclusion that it's stupid to feel like a man or vice versa you don't get to decide for anyone else. For people who are all about freedom and who supposedly hate identity politics Americans have a real hard time understand that they can't decide someone else's identity for them.
Darren Fleming what is ‘feeling like a man’? Can you seriously define that for me though? Traditional masculinity and femininity are utter bullshit constructs that are mere ‘spooks’ in most of these people’s world-views, so can you explain to me how one ‘feels’ like a man or woman?
I agree with her 100%. Growing up I’ve learned I can still be a tomboy and still be confident in being a woman. I have male interests and behaviors influenced by being around them, but I’m still a girl. Hell, I run like a girl 🤣♥️
Yeah one of the biggest things non-binary identifying people say is "it frees me to dress how I want." Like dude, you can do that without having to establish a whole new gender.
Just because she felt comfortable doing traditionally male interests doesn’t mean she knows what it actually feels like to be a male. That’s where it starts to go off the rails, when you assume you feel like the opposite sex but really have no idea what that feels like.
I think what she means is that she always related more to boy’s interests growing up and always seemed to relate better to boys rather than other girls. She doesn’t claim to actually know what it’s like to be a boy.
@@DeathbatOfSpades yeah, i understand what she’s saying but my point still stands about not knowing what the other sex feels like. It wasn’t entirely directed at her but just in general.
I felt the same way. I use to be a Tomboy. My whole entire teenage life I felt like a boy, and felt very unattractive. As I got older and surrounded myself with people who made me feel good about myself, I became more feminine and felt truer to myself. I grew out of it after gaining more confidence about myself, but it took me till my 20s to realize this.
@@pipi9280 oh sure, it's not as common but it definitely happens. dismissing it completely undermines the reality that gender is not as clear as we want it to be. talk to intersex people and do some research with the community. is not nearly as large as the lgbt community but it's absolutely worth learning more about.
@Nishant Warpa most, yeah. so what dictates gender now? genitals? chromosomes? both? what happens if you don't fall in xx or xy? or if genitals are ambiguous? that's the intersex reality she pointed out, but didn't highlight at all
I get what she’s saying but she didn’t explain it very well. Basically what she is saying is that we shouldn’t attribute certain characteristics to each gender. You can be a very masculine female but still be a female. Or be a very feminine male but you would still be a male.
They’re trying to slowly acclimate people into realizing gender is either “not real” or useless. No such thing as masculine behavior: that’s sexist. Think about it. Explain gender without sexist stereotypes aaaand go: (Actually Joe in the video almost gets close to touching on it when he exclaims “you’re masculine???” because a woman being fairly terse and reasonable isn’t a masculine woman... she’s just a woman)
I think it's been said a million times but, there is a difference between sex and gender. She seems to be talking about sex. As far as I understand there are very limited sexes. But gender is whatever we decide it is. So if we decide that there is more genders than just two, then it kind of becomes a spectrum. Does this make sense?
Cornelius Montgomery Crane yeah it does, but it shouldn’t matter. If society accepts there’s no specific way to be male of female. Then you could act and do what ever you want and still fall under the gender or sex you were born with.
Ai Orihara yeah I agree with you. of course there is certain characteristics that each gender tend to do, but no need to state it as it only marginalises the people that don’t act like that. In my opinion gender and sex should be the same thing. Because you should be able to act anyway you like and still be the gender or sex you were born with.
Gender stereotypes are not good, but Scientific Gender is real. A Biological Man is a Biological Man and a Biological Woman is a Biological Woman. Can we stop confusing personality and behavioral preferences with gender?
because there are stereotypes you would usually attribute to the idea of a tomboy. Also, tomboy isn't a term that has some unilateral definition that everyone subscribes to, guess it means different things in everyone's minds
I think it is just an internal feeling, like it is how you can meet someone who has done nothing wrong to you or anything and you just plain out don't like them.
Why does having interests that are common for men make a person more masculine? I am a girl, was a tomboy. I played with boys in games, didn't like dolls. Still today prefer conversations with men more then women. But NEVER have I thought I was masculine. I don't see how what you are interested in has anything to do with gender. I am a girl who likes to watch MMA. So what.
At the end what she said I related to a lot. As a girl going thru puberty I was so uncomfortable with the changes to my body and the feeling of being sexualized. I was so uncomfortable i thought that I was transgender and wanted to be a boy. It tormented me for 2 or 3 years until I could understand myself better. I wanted to be put on hormones and wanted top surgery. But I knew that I would never be like an actual man and that caused me so much pain. As time went by i identified to myself as non-binary then eventually back to female as an adult. Crazy that if I told my parents I could have transitioned when I wasn’t even actually transgender.
experiences like yours should be talked about more often like you said, it’s changes to a person’s body and society sexualizing you that drives a lot of people to hate being their gender there should be an honest conversation about society sexualizing kids going thru puberty, how to reduce it and how kids can combat it so they don’t develop mental problems from it
You were just confused, that's the whole problem with this entire thing. Like puberty is when a kid gets a shot of adult hormones in their brain and has to figure out how to manage that, you know? You don't stop having the hormones until way later in life, you just get it under control and learn to live with it. The craziest thing is how much I see comments like yours in the comments of clips and videos regarding this topic. This situation is out of control and people are suffering more than they have to for it, and the protestors and psycho activists looking to validate their opinions aren't helping.
The true problem here, that no one points out, is the sexualisation and objectification of female bodies and young girls. That was the reason I didn't want to be a girl either when puberty hit me at 11 and I all of a sudden went from being a child to being a target of sexual harrassment and assault by boys my age, and even worse, adult men.
@@GLamoRousCooKie I am older now (60) and treated very differently by women than I was when I was young and good looking. I am, and have always been, friendly to all people. I treat unattractive women the same as attractive. When I was younger and good looking I would smile and say hello to ALL people. Today when I do so women give me a dirty look and assume I am, as you say, "sexually harassing" them. I most certainly I not, I am just continuing the good manners I have always had. Your complaint, at least when it comes to me, is all in your head. The idea of me having sex with a young man is just gross, stop projecting your weird ideas on me.
I am very interested in feminine things, hair, makeup, nails. But I'm a fighter and martial artist at my core. I love guns and fighting. But I also hate dirt and bugs. Personality and interest/disinterest does not determine that I am "gender fluid". My XX chromosomes determined I am female at the time of conception and my physical gender expression in the form of a vagina confirmed that only a few months later.
You can be feminine and still love fighting and guns. In my country, we have this history when an army of the State of Kedah fought against the invading Siamese army. It's estimated that almost half of the Kedah fighting force was female, and this is a Muslim society that place all sorts of limitation on women. In Europe, there's Vikings. A large part of Viking raiders were female. And yet you never heard about masculine female or any issue regarding gender from people at that time.
And what a beautiful form it is.....I identify as Female so this isn't creepy at all because you know thats the way the world works today..Im also just kidding of course.

If you (theoretically) scan a typical male brain, then configure all the neurons in a woman to be like what you scanned is that person then (regarding gender) a male or a female? They have XX chromosomes, a female appearance, etc.
Sounds like you should check into it, I know some youtube videos that are very interesting by a guy named earthistrans420 who has a lot of interesting ideas
When I was in elementary school, tomboy girls were the best, and all the boys liked hanging out with them. Those girls then grew up to be some of the most feminine and down to earth women.
I could tell almost this exact story but decades earlier. Masculine female scientist, who is still a woman. And so so grateful I had the time to work through my issues without harmful medicalization. The most disturbing part to me is the grooming that goes on in grade school, kinder, and even preschool classrooms! They are literally training kids to be trans at a time when they don't even know the difference between real and make-believe. Three and four and five year olds? They're still babies!
I get what she means when she's saying she's masculine. Idk how she is on a private level or how she sees herself mentally but her personality and communication style is pretty masculine. Direct, not overly flowery or sensitive, very dignified. And as she said... it's all very personal and subjective.
@@marisa7976 even though you're sarcastic and probably won't listen to a thing I say, I'll go on. You're aware how in math there are infinite integers between 1 and 2 right?
Claiming the binary doesn't exist because of Turner Syndrome or Intersex is like claiming people with 10 fingers don't exist because people with 11 fingers exist.
No, not at all. It’s like saying that people are born on a spectrum from 9-11 fingers, which is true. Just like gender being on a spectrum. Just because most people have 10 fingers doesn’t mean that people with 9 don’t exist, or people with 10.5 don’t exist. They do.
This may be one of the most backwards comments I have seen thus far. The proper thing to say would be: This is like saying people with 11 fingers do not exist because the majority of people have 10 fingers...which is demonstrably wrong btw. Also... What does "feel like a man/woman" mean anyway? How does anyone know what it "feels" like. other than using external descriptions given to you?
Do you not understand what "binary" means? "Binary" means that there are literally only two possibilities, for example you wouldn't say that 0000111100001112 is a binary sequence "because the 2 is just an exception", would you? The accurate analogy would be you guys insisting that people can literally only ever be born with 10 fingers, reasonable people pointing out that what you're saying isn't true because some people are born with 11 fingers, and you guys proceeding to say "but those people are an exception, therefore it is still true that people are literally only ever born with 10 fingers".
Nothing in itself is a social construct. Everything is at least partly influenced by the human experience which includes among other things our sex characteristics, our general biology and psychology.
I am really irritated in a way when I hear that the concept of male and female is a social construct. Like, no. Perhaps the roles that you might associate with these terms are, but in general, male and female aren't what you call a person that does certain things in the household. It's about two very different human organisms. One produces semen (male) and the other an egg (female). The male fertilizes the egg and the female gives birth. End of story. Edit: Great, now I feel that my comment is redundant because she says almost the same as I just did. I didn't hear that part when I was typing this.
@@MrCmon113 Matter-of-fact, to the point, neutral tone of voice. Certainly she's not got a body designed for heavy manual labour or combat sports, but in terms of the energy she emotes with? Rather reticent and goal oriented, which is more masculine. Men are supremely occupied with the "Why" of things, not the how. It's why when we get asked a question the response is usually quite taciturn. "How was work?" "Good." That'd be kinda shite for a podcast, but things are still staying within a focused mindset. You have guests come on where they'll talk about things completely unrelated to their expertise, this is not one of those episodes.
I think she was clarifying that it’s an opinion based on the scientific literature. It’s not something she arrived at independently.. Therefore it’s not her opinion but rather what the science currently concludes.
This is almost correct. Think about why we wear the type of clothes we wear, is it because we have a certain set of genitals or do you think that the behavioural types we observe are molded by the evolution of culture. Think back to the olden days when being a real man meant that you wore 10 different colognes, a fluffy, fabulous outfit made with the finest fiber, stockings, and a most fluffy wig. Now, think about the 1950s and what a real man then meant. Suit and tie, clean shaved, can't wear any colours, a fedora. Did you know that the fedora was actually a women's article of clothing at first. This is the difference between gender identity and sex. Sex has a major part in gender identity, but it ultimately depends on the individual and the culture.

interests and behaviors shouldnt been labelled with gender, a girl can like cars and fighting and it doesnt make her less of a girl, and a boy can like make up and dancing and it doesnt make him any less of a boy-- this is exactly the thing that causes people to think theyre trans when they're not. telling them theyre acting wrong for their sex is what creates that dissonance, for a lot of people
"we have to be able to have a conversation saying If you feel different that doesnt mean you shouldnt be a woman" 🙏thats exactly what ive been thinking! I believe people make up many genders because they feel that they dont fit in with stereotypical "male" or "female", but people within one gender are very different! You can be a woman who is very masculine and has typical male interests, you can be a woman who is not interested in sex or sexuality and STILL be a woman, without the need to change your gender depending on the moon phase, thats just crazy
Tell me about it... as a boy, I never went through the "Girls are icky" phase and always had girl friends. At a certain age, when my guy friends were into masculine things, like cars, guns, etc etc... I had zero interest in those things. As I was always hanging out with my girl friends and we'd talk about fashion, clothes, models, makeup, things like that. For three years, this drove me insane. As it kind of went down the path of curiosity leading to wondering, then questioning, leading to concern, etc. Where I couldn't talk to anyone about it, because I knew the knee jerk go to would be that I was gay. Not that it's bad, but that was so not the case. So it was just utter confusion about what was wrong with me. Turns out that at 15, I eventually began to just naturally gravitate toward stereotypical male pursuits, not because of feeling like I had to, they just began to seem interesting. Where I became a rather masculine guy who used the aforementioned feminine background to become a fashion photographer. Point is, I suppose, is that I physically cringe to imagine boys going through the same thing I did... And being convinced/gaslighted/goaded into thinking they're girls. Or that they're Trans, going on blockers or hormones, etc. When all they really have to do is have someone who loves them explain to them that what they're going through is pretty normal, as in most people do and in a couple years they'll be fine. Then I say a silent prayer of gratitude that these activists and UA-camrs weren't around when I was that age.
@@AnthonySforza thanks for the insight. I think the idea of giving hormones to kids is terrible as they are still in the process of learning about themselves, and so im glad to hear your story. Most people turn out "cis" so its a very bad idea to force a different sexuality on your child just because theyre into girly/boyish things and they say they want to be another gender. I used to want to be a man pretty badly when i was about 12, i had guy friends and was into boyish interests. Now i have a boyfriend and i like being feminine, doing makeup and dressing up. I dont care about that stuff anymore, i know i can be a girl and i enjoy it.
@@AnthonySforza Indeed. I mean I like flowers and cooking and I'd beat the shit out of the guy who tries to take away the stuffed bear I've always had as a kid. Just having interests or hobbies outside what most would consider "normal" for your gender or sex doesn't make you any less that gender or sex. I can like cooking and MMA. Besides, who gives a shit what a bunch of randos think about how we live our lives?
So glad she clarifies that the loud trans activists dont represent all trans people. As a trans guy I agree with everything she says and am gonna buy her book rn.
Finally! A scientist broke this down and explained it! I was getting so sick of people saying science explains there is more than one gender. In with her 100% I’m sick of ppl saying it’s science when it’s not yet I have no prob being respectful and using someone’s pronouns
I m not gonna use someone pronouns. If somebody wants to be called they/zer/bug/vampire I m not gonna do it, I will ask them to call me your excellency or your majesty, see if they agree to that. Most likely they will get pissed.
@@SwedishBlouse true, although not nearly as (much*) as trans activists want people to believe. The funny is these rare biological sexes have been proven by medicine and research as a result of genetic factors present before birth. The rainbow brigade consistently refers to gender being a social construct as an absolute truth, at the same time, they allude to these occurrences of rare genetic disorders of biological sex to normalize and validate transgenderism as natural. Their argument is so full of contradictions, how can you to point to biology as the root of gender of trans people, while also claiming that biological sex is NOT the deciding factor in gender identity and it is the result of social factors as well? I think more people need to be willing to accept that in many cases the significant driving factor of trans identity is mental instability, troubled individuals reaching for an obscure coping mechanism in an attempt to heal emotional,psychological, and sometimes physical trauma. If we can get everyone to accept that then society will see the criminal absurdity in supporting (irreversible) hormone treatment in children and physical mutilation.
@@radwansoueidan6390 No, it has nothing to do with that. It's because of reincarnation and it is a proven fact that there are people with 'female' brain structure but with a male body and vice versa. Most trans people were probably the opposite sex in their last life and are remembering it.
Some girls get bullied because of their manly traits, and in that case I would imagine they would prefer not to be called names that was used negatively against them.
Absolutely. I grew up wanting to be a boy. I had short hair, wore boy clothes and everyone that didnt personally know me thought that I was a boy. I am still not "girly" but did grow comfortable being a woman. I didnt want to be a girl until I was 14. I really did consider a sex change (probably not super seriously). So scary to gove hormones to a child as they havent completely developed yet.
no children are being put on hormones. this is right wing propaganda to scare people. at most kids are put on puberty blockers to delay puberty till they can make an informed decision when they are older and can choose which puberty to go through. also that's cool that you have found your gender identity but your personal anecdote doesn't invalidate trans peoples experience
@@xxgeimxx Puberty blockers are just as disgusting as the hormone treatments they give children. "Choose". There is no choice. You have a Y chromosome, or you dont. You all need mental help. Its child abuse
I agree with everything she’s saying, but how can she say she’s more like a boy? As a female, she has no way of knowing what it’s like to be male. I think what she means is that she’s not a stereotypical girl. Not all women enjoy girly things, that’s pretty normal. It just like how trans people feel they are a the opposite sex, but they don’t actually know what that feels like.
You should take puberty blockers and remove the skin off of your body and replace it with clothing and if the doctor says no because it's dangerous you should report the doctor for being transphobic and denying service to trans people, twitter would be proud.
wait, what makes one gender real and another fake? don't you think it's kinda fucked up to say only the genders you own culture came up with are real and ones belonging to others are fake? (i mean like two-spirit, hijra, bakla etc.)
@@YouLikeKrabbyPattiesDontYou first off, Bakla is queer, not a gender Secondly Two-Spirit is bigender, which has not been scientifically proven from what I've seen And lastly Hijira is transgender, so still 2 Unless you have more examples, all of those really do not count, and maybe look into them, or did i say something wrong, correct me, simple
One thing I personally think we should focus more on when raising kids, maybe teaching them in school and making them aware of is that hardly anyone, ANYONE (at least it's what I think, people might not agree), enjoy puberty. I hated puberty, how my body changed, getting a period. I still hate getting my period to this day (I'm 25, got it when I was 11) and I avoid it like the plague whenever I can with birth control (approved by doctors and nurses but besides the point). Going from being a girl to a woman or a boy to man is uncomfortable for most people. A lot is changing and it's difficult to understand. Which is completely NORMAL. Acting like we should all go into puberty enjoying every second and feeling like we're completely in love with our bodies is not the reality for most people. I think this is important to show and tell young teenagers that it takes time to come to terms with. So being a girl and getting your period, boobs, hips etc and feeling like you hate your body doesn't necessarily mean you're trans it just simply means you are a teenager.
I was a male trapped in a females body. Then the doctor recommended a c-section and my mother gave birth to me.

"Gender" doesn't mean "Your unique expression of being a human being"
Some people get 'gender identity' confused with 'personal identity'
@Despize Perform Gender is how you’re perceived by society; it has nothing to do with ones’ identity. Anything after that is subjective feelings about ones’ identity as a whole. That’s why it’s usually so strongly associated with superficial stereotypes related to gender to start with.
@Despize Perform its "subject" to what you present to the people around you and what they decide to label you... doesn't make it objectively true. Anyone can throw on a wig and smear on some makeup. Some people will think you're just some lady, depending on how convincing you are. Others will think you're a man in a dress, and likely to sexually assault someone. What isn't subjective about that?
@Despize Perform no, that's personal identity. No one feels like a girl or feels like a boy.
Society has a roll for you to fill. A place for you to go depending on many characteristics including your personal identity, and what gender you're boxed into. Take a sociology class. Maybe try an anthropology course as well. If you're having gender identity issues, it is completely based on how you want other people to treat you.
And just because you want to be treated like a pretty pretty girl or a big tough guy, it doesn't make you actually one or the other. That's a fantasy.
@Despize Perform imagine you slid out of a womb onto a desolate desert island. Would it be possible to feel like you had a gender identity issue? Without anyone around you to convince? You're confusing yourself. I'm not calling gender personal identity. They are distinctly different, which is a bummer for people who want being transgendered to make them interesting. The entire argument is just double think. "Just because I'm a boy, it doesn't mean I have to like the color blue and guns, but if I'm a girl and I like the color blue and guns, I must actually be a boy. I feel it deep down!" These ideas don't come from the individual, they're arbitrarily assigned by your society at large and if you adapt the right and wrong attributes, all of a sudden you got yourself a personal identity that's 'gender fluid'.
My thesis is, be who you are. Like what you like. If your genitals are stressing you out, or the fact that you are the sex you were born, that's a terrible mental affliction and you would probably benefit from therapy. Wishing you were a different gender doesn't make it so. SAS and hormone therapy can't magically make you a different gender.
@Despize Perform Gender identity is a social construct that you either buy into, or don't. And if you don't, you never have to mutilate yourself to feel more like another gender because you'd be trying to please others rather than yourself.

"I don't understand why we can't just have a fact-based conversation"
The modern world in a nutshell
Yup. Actually, I think she's correct that 'non-binary' is the truly erroneous notion in all of this. Male versus female is a chromosomal and binary condition. (The partial exception being intersex conditions - which are not transgender). However, if people choose to distinguish between 'gender' and 'biological sex', that's their perspective - no biggie. But 'non-binary' sex/gender does not really occur in any form of life, and certainly not in mammals. Certain types of fish can genuinely change biological sex, but they become one or the other. To claim a non-binary status is therefore to claim that your condition sets you apart more from other people than it does from fish or reptiles - which simply sounds like what we call 'alienation', not a medical issue. (Excuse wordy reply - the science is all a bit scientific. Lol).

I like that she can acknowledge that having masculine or effeminate qualities doesn't automatically make you the opposite gender. A huge problem with modern day gender ideology is that it makes young people confused about themselves.

YES. I Agree.!
@@shizuwolfWhen I hear many young people speak about gender, they have very rigid ideas of what it means to be male or female. Their views actually reflect the 1950s. They also don't seem to be aware that being gender bending was pretty common in the 1990s through the 2010s. To them, a feminine man or a masculine woman is automatically trans, which is baffling to me, as someone born in the early 1980s.
People confuse "Gender" with personality. There are INFINITE personalities, everyone has a different personality and that is what makes life so beautiful. But what happens is people try to associate their personality and put an official gender name to it, when there is no need to. The fact is, your gender is what you biologically are. Your personality can be whatever you want
People confuse gender with sex lol
Lmao this smooth brain thinks gender and sex are the same
Everything is social
Construct.
Although you can have a biological disconnection with your BODY nothing with personality which makes you transgender but people be identifying as non binary because of their PERSONALITY
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender
I'm a feminine looking woman, but growing up I've always felt more masculine. I lacked interest in feminine things and got along better with boys. Today this means I'm a different gender when in reality there are different ways of being female and I fully embrace my femininity as well as my ruggedness. As an adult now, I let reason and rationality lead the way, not emotion. I've never felt more free than to come to full grip of reality. Sadly and ironically, people today lead their lives with emotion which leads to more emptiness and depression.
@Heb725 When experts say sex is on a spectrum they generally don't mean there are a million sexes. They mean you can be born with varying traits. For instance, you can be born with a female brain and a male reproductive system, and male body. Your brain is always going to know your female but will be more okay with these changes if you start at a young age because these traits than match female more than if you wait to adulthood.
@@jameswhite3415 That's fine as an adult. Until we figure out how to completely rebuild a person as the opposite gender and back again we can't do that to minors though.
@@jameswhite3415 Sorry James but what you are saying is not scientific. Sex is not on a spectrum. They are distinct categories. Their non-physical traits may exist on a spectrum, like interests, mannerisms, agreeability etc. For example we can have masculine women or feminine men. However, sex is a biological reality. In the example you gave (a male with a so-called female brain), the body will always "know" it is male. Your argument is actually self-defeating--to say there is a spectrum of sexes, while also saying their traits belong to male and female categories.
@@crisbowman Self-hatred will always have internal turmoil.
@@jameswhite3415 Plus it doesn't make sense if the problem is biochemical in nature (which I can agree in some cases of gender dysphoria), to choose physically altering the body as a solution to a biochemical problem.

I'm pretty leftist or whatever tf it's called but when she said "I think we can advocate for equal rights for trans and intersex people without having to reconceptualise what sex and gender are" that describes it perfectly to me.
Yay another leftist who allies with reality.
exactly. gender theory is the absolute peak of "the country where i live is the most tolerant place on earth and i have absolutely zero struggle"
but can we? I don`t think so. Gender dysphoria is a serious mental issue which defiantly puts limitations on an individual who has it. So we can talk about compassion and respect towards these people but equal rights are just not achievable.
This whole ridiculous gender "rights" is just a stepping stone so AI have rights. It's to protect the AI.

Most underrated comment on this thread
You win the comment section today sir.
I see you're a man of culture as well
Can anyone actually explain what it is to "feel" like a man or a woman? I've been a man for 24 years but I have no idea how it feels, I only know how it feels to be me. Does "feeling" like the opposite gender mean you just enjoy things that they stereotypically like? Why can you not just be a feminine man or a more masculine girl? Genuinely interested in any answers to this, regardless of whether you believe you can change gender or not.
Nicely put. I hope someone comes along. I could tell you how I see it but I am just a young gay man.
sexually liking your own gender more than the opposite. probably
I agree. IMO I think that people just feel what they know they want/are attracted to based off of “social constructs”. If F likes F, historically a “man/male” is traditionally attracted to F so they think they a Male bcuz they’re attracted to F. I may be crazy.
My bestfriend is Straight, and a born a male. He went thru a phase where he thought was Non Binary for a moment. He explained it as he didnt feel like his interests and behaviour fell into the male category (beer,sports,fishing fighting etc) nor did he fall into the female category (fashion,dramas,makeup gossiping etc). After discussing this with him I realized that people may claim a seperate gender just because what they end up being interested in is not what society has raised them into thinking their interests are as a male or female. When in reality you can be a woman who likes all those stereotype things or a male who likes the opposite. Im not sure if this helps you but this is how my friend explained to me how it felt.
@@marble25 I know how I feel about my life. We are talking about people who feel as if they are the opposite gender. They could be a man that feels they are a woman but wants to be with other women, or they want to be with men.

@@lewisner I was replying to your comment but locking in on the fact that she thinks just because shes into Martial arts shes masculine.
I was told I was gay all through Highschool. I knew I wasn’t but I was extremely tall for my age, was very skinny and extremely awkward. I grew up in the military and my father, who was what liberals would define as the embodiment of toxic masculinity, was the extremely abusive. Throughout highschool I avoided anyone or anything that reminded me of him (people who liked sports, shooting, cars, outdoors anything) and eventually I found video games which made the time pass by relatively quickly. Years later I’m married with two kids and after years of being married I eventually became comfortable with stereotypical masculine activities. However, I could easily see how if someone in my situation had been comfortable going to therapy, which I wasn’t, they could have been easily manipulated into thinking they were either homosexual or a woman.
I'm happy you share about this because it highlights the stereotyping many use when calling someone gay. If someone isn't a "stereotypical" man or woman, many assume he or she is gay, lesbian or transexual. Many online try to say that tomboys or thinner, gentler male characters in popular media are homosexual because of these atypical qualities. The only makeup I wear is lipstick and I used to dress down a lot when I was younger; I wonder if people automatically assumed I was a lesbian because of that.
This touches on an important point: a lot of “trans” and “queer” discourse actually is based on stereotypical understanding of what it means to be a man or woman. One of many problems with the logic behind trans ideology.
One thing I learned in construction is supposed tough guys are super concerned about what other men eat, drink, breathe, if they are single or not. A lot of fake tough guys out there. Worry about yourself, not what I do.
@@j.yumuraj2880 maybe I haven't looked around and explored the topic enough, but I always thought the same thing: "gender-progressive" people have to buy into the very regressive stereotypes that they claim are so harmful.

I got no research on the sujet honestly, the last research i really dived into that was remotely related was updated Kinseyan scale sexuality stuff which i do understand is a separate issue. I hear, as does everybody these days, a lot of talk about non'binary, trans, gender fluidity. I myself have had some amount of these thoughts and emotions as a young person so i understand there is truth behind gender confusion or that other word i can't remember (maybe dismorphia, idunno). But i frankly have no idea who to read that actually has real research because while this lady may be parroting, as @robin hogan is saying, a pretty typical normie desired worldview on this topic, i find any advocate for the trans or gender fluid argument doesn't use much evidence either and seems to parrot their own agenda... and you gotta understand from a teen to now i have been thinking armchair thoughts (i dont have time for lota of article reading/research, got shit to do) about the philosophical, societal, and psychological factors involved in this sort of thing. That said i would like to know if there is some easily digestible research out there on the matter... and holy fuck this is long

Gender has moved from tangible measurable metrics of biology, to intangible metrics of personal feelings and opinions. It has transitioned from objective fact to subjective opinion. When your gender is whatever you want it to be, it stops serving an objective purpose.
That is not entirely true, atleast for FTM and MTF transgender people, because many studies have shown that the brain structure of transgender individuals more closely resembles thier gender identity, and in many cases to a T. Yes a Trans Man will still go through women’s puberty. Non-Binary, I will admit, hard to find evidence for or against.
Purpose? Things have only the purpose we give them.
Because gender relates to social constructs, while sex (being male or female) relates to biology

"I have an opinion, its factually wrong. If you disagree with me I'll ruin your life" How has if come to this. Why are people allowed to to this?
A trained resistance to cognitive dissonance. Typically, it's uncomfortable to hold opposing opinions together in the same headspace. For whatever reason (which I am sure there are many), people just roll with it instead of being so bothered by it that they actually stop and figure out what the problem is with the feeling of discomfort.
Then they blame reality instead of recognizing the problem with themselves.
It's probably more complicated than this, but it's a theory I've been kicking around for awhile now. I think it is systemic and no one group is better or worse than others regarding this kind of behavior. But I do feel that it plays a major part in our current paradigm of misinformation. Might help explain the abundance of medicated individuals, no doubt headmeds play a role in the lack of action concerning cognitive dissonance.
I dunno, maybe I am way off but it feels somewhat accurate.
ETA: the permissiveness of it probably happens because no one has any kind of drive to understand the issue. They just want the dopamine hit of acceptance regardless of merit.

I’m a Tomboy and no one has brought up if I could be trans. I honestly think a lot of this gender non conforming stuff is all to do with trends in high school. I saw the same thing when I was a teen (transgenderism wasn’t a thing) but being bi or a lesbian was all the rage. You could tell most of the girls at my school we’re just in it for the “trend” factor 🤦🏻♀️now they are back to being strait and housewives 🤷🏻♀️🤔 I was not happy being objectified as a woman and so strapped down my boobs in high school, I think a lot of women/girls are converting their sex has a lot to do with not wanting to be noticed or objectified on a subconscious level. That’s what was happening to me without realizing it. If transgenderism was I thing when I was a teen I bet I would have convinced myself I want to be male as I didn’t know how to put into words how and what I was feeling. But I’m female and happy to stay that way and to be honest wouldn’t want to be a male as they are the ones that made me feel objectified, made me feel uncomfortable as a female.

When I was a little kid, my closest adults were women - my mother and grandmother. I watched a lot of shows about women and women's lives. I began to pretend to breast feed my teddy bears and I used to do that constantly. My mother and grandmother did not scold me. They did not yell at me or mistreat me. They simply taught me about how women have the ability to feed children with their breasts and men do not. They taught me the difference between the two sexes; the clear and defined biological differences. Over time, I got it. I understood and little by little that childhood phase left me completely. I am a perfectly happy heterosexual cis - gender male with many LGBTQ friends. I support the right of Gay couples to marry. I support the right of trans people to join the military and the right of adults (not children) to choose to transition. I think the notion of allowing children - who literally know NOTHING about who they really are - to dictate whether they should choose to be male or female (or some weird neo-limbo non-binary state) is insane. The thought of what would have happened to me if I were a child living in today's society and my parents would have been a pair of ultra - left "woke" individuals is horrifying to me. If an adult wishes to live as Non-Binary, that is fine. If an adult wishes to use the strange they/them pronoun, that is fine and it is that individual's right. And it IS strange because "they" is a PLURAL noun, NOT a SINGULAR noun. And THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING STRANGE. I have my own strange leans. I like to watch horror movies to sleep. That is STRANGE. I acknowledge this. I accept it. Accept your strangeness and be comfortable with it, but don't pretend that it is the norm. And for G-d's sake, stop trying to muddle the waters for children whose minds need direction. If a child shows signs of transgender identity (as I did as a child), gently and lovingly teach that child the biological differences between the sexes. Reinforce that teaching gently, with love - not with shame. Continue to reinforce it, because it will take time for the child to catch on. If the child reaches adulthood and he or she is STILL convinced that he or she needs to transition, THEN - AND ONLY THEN - as an adult, should the option for a surgical transition be considered.
In the United States it is already illegal to do most gender affirming surgeries on anyone under the age of 18. The sole exception to this are some states which allow breast enlargement or reduction to be performed as young as 16, but this is a simple and easily reversible procedure, and they have to be living full time as their identified gender for years for this to even be an option.
The earliest form of medical transition is puberty blockers which delay some effects of puberty (essentially resulting in a more 'androgenous' appearance that can easily present as either gender) and have no permanent effect when the drugs are removed, and they can only be used as young as 10 years old. Very few people start transition this young.
Hormone replacement therapy can cause more permanent changes over a long timespan, but the minimum age for that is 16, so when they reach adulthood a person who grew up transgender won't have any irreversible changes to their body. Only on reaching adulthood do more permanent surgeries become an option. And every part of this process requires approval from psychiatrists and physicians. All this outrage about surgeries on grade schoolers or whatever is based on misinformation.
As someone who didn't figure out for sure they were trans until several years into adulthood, it would have saved me a lot of grief to grow up in an informed and accepting environment where I would have felt safe to ask questions and experiment with my presentation and, when I was old enough, take medical measures to prevent the now irreversible changes to my body that will cause me distress for the rest of my life.
Your experience isn't identical to everyone else's. You're not trans. That's why your story went where it went. Now just imagine how different your life would have been if you were trans and had to spend years trying to convince yourself that you weren't just to appease your family and everyone else around you. Then when the 2010's roll around and attitudes toward trans people starts to change you finally accept who you are but you are now so far into being a man that the rest of your life will be even more of a struggle as you work to present feminine and have to have conversation after conversation with the people you know just to justify who you are. Then you lose some friends because they think you're insane and maybe even have to cut ties with family members who don't understand you because you never got the chance to express yourself earlier in life. Kinda sucks, right?
@@redveinborneo4673 Your comment is quite confusing. "you are so far into being a man","more of a struggle to present feminine" Can you even define what trans means?
@@FreeState.21ST I think they meant that the trans person was so used to acting like somebody who they weren't, that they couldn't get out of this narrative they built up their entire lives
Lemme try to make it a bit clearer with an example-
Say a trans man (as in, somebody born a female who identifies as a male) lived their entire life growing up as a girl, trying to ignore how they genuinely felt because they wanted to appease their family, trying to fit in with society, etc. etc.
Now suddenly, society has started to change the way they view trans people. They start to be a little more accepting. The trans man may want to fully transition now, since they see an opportunity to live a happy life in a society that won't shame them for their nature.
Buuuuut since they grew up as a girl, they might find that to be difficult. They only own feminine clothing, all their friends only know them as a girl, their name might be super feminine, and all of that. It'd take time to buy a whole new set of clothing, to come out to every single one of their friends (who might take it super badly and leave them or worse), and more
Does that clear up the confusion? ^^"

Feel I need to put this out because it's probably rare information: many years ago I was going through really bad psychological issues and an interesting thing started happening - I started being more comfortable with "femininity" over masculinity. Masculinity seemed alien to me despite being a man and I felt more comfortable with the idea of the feminine. After doing the inner work and going for therapy multiple times it became obvious that for me (can only speak for myself), due to father issues and years of experiences with violent boys at school and growing up around many women - it became a coping mechanism. My mind had been conditioned to see masculinity as dangerous from a young age (unintentionally) and unsurprisingly I even experienced dissociation from my body for years. Not claiming I am a scientist, but I couldn't help but wonder that if didn't do the inner work to recover for years would I have had a different perspective on this? Would I have projected it onto society? Now masculinity is normal to me, and I feel pretty balanced in both "energies" but I'm still a man.
Thank you for sharing your personal experience, that’s very brave of you! The more people like you talk about stuff like this I feel like the more people can be understanding and accepting of others.
Thanks for sharing. That's interesting to hear. I'm glad it's all working out for you in the end.
Yeah, that's quite true. As humans, we tend to absorb and mentally align with others because of survival. Religion is a great example.
Another alternative is for people to just accept that they prefer feminine things. That doesn't change someone's sex. I have friends that are very feminine. But never have they ever entertained the idea that maybe they're not really male. They like what they like. Transgender activists though would try to convince them that they're really a woman trapped in a man's body, and their refusal to acknowledge this is because society is oppressing them.

It honestly depends on where you reside. “Abnormal” psychological behavior is determined by what a society agrees is deviant, dangerous, distressful, and/or dysfunctional (i.e., what is socially acceptable).
Socially acceptable and non-socially acceptable behavior can change depending on a society’s attitude to said behavior (e.g., interracial marriage, homosexuality, segregation).
Your argument was used to keep races apart and keep homosexuals out of the military (among other things). Though most or some might share your view, it’s clear society is changing their attitude.
V G I understand your point completely. However, I think the issue is that trans issues often are related to very serious
mental health issues; the suicide rate for trans people is horrifyingly high, and I do not accept the response that this is due to bullying. It speaks to the presence of problems that need real professional help. But to suggest that many kids who are trans may also suffer from related mental health problems has become hate speech in 2020. Not because trans = mental health, but because trans feelings often stem from other issues and not a simple desire to be different.
Society is made of people,
peoples psychology and their psychological problems
100% correct, anyone who believes they are a different sex than the one that they are have a psychological issue, simple as that.
Yep, psychological issue totally agree. I know you didn't say or even imply otherwise, but obviously we must have great sympathy for people with these conditions, especially since there's likely nothing we can do about it, at least for a long, long while until technology comes further; and even then, there may be more implications with a "fix"; a lot of it will probably be manufactured i.e. "correcting dwarfism is offensive to dwarves because you're saying their very core self is undesirable or inferior" blah blah, but some of it may in fact be a genuine moral quandary.
Tomboy.... That’s the word she was looking for.
This is hilarious 🤣 I miss the old days
@Mice Elf i agree, a physically attractive girl who doesnt act ladylike (aka tomboy) is hot af!!
I think she was also trying to say she had a high sex drive like a typical boy and/or that she does not get emotionally attached like typical girls do. Joe could have tried a bit harder to get this out of her.

Using somebody's preferred pronouns is not being respectful, it's accommodating their whims. It's exhausting this trends to use so many euphemisms that we end up buying into them.
"Helping an ADHD person to focus is not respectful. Its accommodating their whims."
"I don't understand why we can't just have a fact-based conversation."

People who use "narrative" like that are typically cringeworthy conspiracy theorists. Good on you for outing yourself.
Because the side of this discussion pretending to be interested in “getting to the facts” keeps wanting to bring psychology PhDs into a discussion about medicine and genealogy.
@@christianc.christian5025 saying someone had XX or XY chromosomes is biology. Though biology has no bearing on what is 'manly' or 'girly', those are all social constructs
The fact based narrative is that there are two sexes, but a wide variety of genetic conditions that can alter how you look and feel. And historically, there have been many cases where parents have made decisions based on those genetic abnormalities to raise their kids with gender norms the opposite of the actual biological sex. Most people aren't aware of this because they don't actually study the history of the genetic conditions.
You can be born technically male, but have both genitalia. Or undeveloped male organs and hormonal issues that alter looks, behavior because of genetic changes. There are even historical cases of men with vaginas--naturally.
It is not a stretch at all to understand why people would be raised a certain way or why they might, psychologically, think a different way. Psychological states are also influenced by chemical states, brain development, etc.

@@terracannon876 I understand. But the way he comes off is like... "Shit I don't see no beard on your ass... how you masculine?"

Not everyone gets things at first and needs some explanation.
DoubleBoe7 because she never said that lol. If she just said “im a tom boy” joe woulda known exactly what she meant and moved on
Rogan highlights a good point when he asked her, "How do you feel more masculine?" When ultimately personality traits, at least in the modern world, are no more male or female. Gender is a biological identity, it doesn't extend to our personality anymore, as the the gender roles are fluid in our modern society and either male or female can display traits of aggressiveness or hyper sensitivity... etc
So just because a male born individual has the generalised stereotype temperament of a women, doesn't mean they've been born into the wrong body. Both male and females are born with the same spectrum of emotions and capabilities for these temperaments.

@Gap What does it feel like to be male? A female? And how do you know this feeling is unique to that one gender?
The whole point is that it's your fucking choice and no one can decide for you, even if you get to the conclusion that it's stupid to feel like a man or vice versa you don't get to decide for anyone else.

@@pipi9280 oh sure, it's not as common but it definitely happens. dismissing it completely undermines the reality that gender is not as clear as we want it to be. talk to intersex people and do some research with the community. is not nearly as large as the lgbt community but it's absolutely worth learning more about.
@Nishant Warpa most, yeah. so what dictates gender now? genitals? chromosomes? both? what happens if you don't fall in xx or xy? or if genitals are ambiguous? that's the intersex reality she pointed out, but didn't highlight at all
I get what she’s saying but she didn’t explain it very well. Basically what she is saying is that we shouldn’t attribute certain characteristics to each gender. You can be a very masculine female but still be a female. Or be a very feminine male but you would still be a male.
Sounds like she explained it pretty well.
They’re trying to slowly acclimate people into realizing gender is either “not real” or useless. No such thing as masculine behavior: that’s sexist. Think about it. Explain gender without sexist stereotypes aaaand go:
(Actually Joe in the video almost gets close to touching on it when he exclaims “you’re masculine???” because a woman being fairly terse and reasonable isn’t a masculine woman... she’s just a woman)
I think it's been said a million times but, there is a difference between sex and gender. She seems to be talking about sex. As far as I understand there are very limited sexes. But gender is whatever we decide it is. So if we decide that there is more genders than just two, then it kind of becomes a spectrum. Does this make sense?
Cornelius Montgomery Crane yeah it does, but it shouldn’t matter. If society accepts there’s no specific way to be male of female. Then you could act and do what ever you want and still fall under the gender or sex you were born with.
Ai Orihara yeah I agree with you. of course there is certain characteristics that each gender tend to do, but no need to state it as it only marginalises the people that don’t act like that. In my opinion gender and sex should be the same thing. Because you should be able to act anyway you like and still be the gender or sex you were born with.
Gender stereotypes are not good, but Scientific Gender is real.
A Biological Man is a Biological Man and a Biological Woman is a Biological Woman. Can we stop confusing personality and behavioral preferences with gender?
Why can’t Joe wrap his head around her being a Tomboy
I think Joe likes to play devil's advocate to get people to explain themselves.
Because she is pretty that’s why
Because progressive genderism has made this shit way more complicated than it ever is, was or should be.
because there are stereotypes you would usually attribute to the idea of a tomboy. Also, tomboy isn't a term that has some unilateral definition that everyone subscribes to, guess it means different things in everyone's minds

Oh it is all good, It is good to question.
Why does having interests that are common for men make a person more masculine? I am a girl, was a tomboy. I played with boys in games, didn't like dolls. Still today prefer conversations with men more then women. But NEVER have I thought I was masculine. I don't see how what you are interested in has anything to do with gender. I am a girl who likes to watch MMA. So what.
At the end what she said I related to a lot. As a girl going thru puberty I was so uncomfortable with the changes to my body and the feeling of being sexualized. I was so uncomfortable i thought that I was transgender and wanted to be a boy. It tormented me for 2 or 3 years until I could understand myself better. I wanted to be put on hormones and wanted top surgery. But I knew that I would never be like an actual man and that caused me so much pain. As time went by i identified to myself as non-binary then eventually back to female as an adult. Crazy that if I told my parents I could have transitioned when I wasn’t even actually transgender.
experiences like yours should be talked about more often
like you said, it’s changes to a person’s body and society sexualizing you that drives a lot of people to hate being their gender
there should be an honest conversation about society sexualizing kids going thru puberty, how to reduce it and how kids can combat it so they don’t develop mental problems from it
This is why children should not transition, it is a serious decision that should only be made by adults.
You were just confused, that's the whole problem with this entire thing. Like puberty is when a kid gets a shot of adult hormones in their brain and has to figure out how to manage that, you know? You don't stop having the hormones until way later in life, you just get it under control and learn to live with it. The craziest thing is how much I see comments like yours in the comments of clips and videos regarding this topic. This situation is out of control and people are suffering more than they have to for it, and the protestors and psycho activists looking to validate their opinions aren't helping.
The true problem here, that no one points out, is the sexualisation and objectification of female bodies and young girls. That was the reason I didn't want to be a girl either when puberty hit me at 11 and I all of a sudden went from being a child to being a target of sexual harrassment and assault by boys my age, and even worse, adult men.
@@GLamoRousCooKie I am older now (60) and treated very differently by women than I was when I was young and good looking.

I most certainly I not, I am just continuing the good manners I have always had. Your complaint, at least when it comes to me, is all in your head. The idea of me having sex with a young man is just gross, stop projecting your weird ideas on me.
I am very interested in feminine things, hair, makeup, nails. But I'm a fighter and martial artist at my core. I love guns and fighting. But I also hate dirt and bugs. Personality and interest/disinterest does not determine that I am "gender fluid". My XX chromosomes determined I am female at the time of conception and my physical gender expression in the form of a vagina confirmed that only a few months later.
You can be feminine and still love fighting and guns. In my country, we have this history when an army of the State of Kedah fought against the invading Siamese army. It's estimated that almost half of the Kedah fighting force was female, and this is a Muslim society that place all sorts of limitation on women. In Europe, there's Vikings. A large part of Viking raiders were female. And yet you never heard about masculine female or any issue regarding gender from people at that time.

The proper thing to say would be: This is like saying people with 11 fingers do not exist because the majority of people have 10 fingers...which is demonstrably wrong btw.
Also...
What does "feel like a man/woman" mean anyway? How does anyone know what it "feels" like. other than using external descriptions given to you?
Do you not understand what "binary" means? "Binary" means that there are literally only two possibilities, for example you wouldn't say that 0000111100001112 is a binary sequence "because the 2 is just an exception", would you? The accurate analogy would be you guys insisting that people can literally only ever be born with 10 fingers, reasonable people pointing out that what you're saying isn't true because some people are born with 11 fingers, and you guys proceeding to say "but those people are an exception, therefore it is still true that people are literally only ever born with 10 fingers".

Isn't everything a social construct in a way? I'd say almost everything is aside from a few things, like biology
Nothing in itself is a social construct. Everything is at least partly influenced by the human experience which includes among other things our sex characteristics, our general biology and psychology.
I am really irritated in a way when I hear that the concept of male and female is a social construct.
Like, no. Perhaps the roles that you might associate with these terms are, but in general, male and female aren't what you call a person that does certain things in the household.
It's about two very different human organisms. One produces semen (male) and the other an egg (female). The male fertilizes the egg and the female gives birth.

This is almost correct. Think about why we wear the type of clothes we wear, is it because we have a certain set of genitals or do you think that the behavioural types we observe are molded by the evolution of culture. Think back to the olden days when being a real man meant that you wore 10 different colognes, a fluffy, fabulous outfit made with the finest fiber, stockings, and a most fluffy wig. Now, think about the 1950s and what a real man then meant. Suit and tie, clean shaved, can't wear any colours, a fedora. Did you know that the fedora was actually a women's article of clothing at first. This is the difference between gender identity and sex. Sex has a major part in gender identity, but it ultimately depends on the individual and the culture.

interests and behaviors shouldnt been labelled with gender, a girl can like cars and fighting and it doesnt make her less of a girl, and a boy can like make up and dancing and it doesnt make him any less of a boy-- this is exactly the thing that causes people to think theyre trans when they're not. telling them theyre acting wrong for their sex is what creates that dissonance, for a lot of people
"we have to be able to have a conversation saying If you feel different that doesnt mean you shouldnt be a woman" 🙏thats exactly what ive been thinking! I believe people make up many genders because they feel that they dont fit in with stereotypical "male" or "female", but people within one gender are very different! You can be a woman who is very masculine and has typical male interests, you can be a woman who is not interested in sex or sexuality and STILL be a woman, without the need to change your gender depending on the moon phase, thats just crazy
Tell me about it... as a boy, I never went through the "Girls are icky" phase and always had girl friends. At a certain age, when my guy friends were into masculine things, like cars, guns, etc etc... I had zero interest in those things. As I was always hanging out with my girl friends and we'd talk about fashion, clothes, models, makeup, things like that.
For three years, this drove me insane. As it kind of went down the path of curiosity leading to wondering, then questioning, leading to concern, etc. Where I couldn't talk to anyone about it, because I knew the knee jerk go to would be that I was gay. Not that it's bad, but that was so not the case. So it was just utter confusion about what was wrong with me.
Turns out that at 15, I eventually began to just naturally gravitate toward stereotypical male pursuits, not because of feeling like I had to, they just began to seem interesting. Where I became a rather masculine guy who used the aforementioned feminine background to become a fashion photographer.
Point is, I suppose, is that I physically cringe to imagine boys going through the same thing I did... And being convinced/gaslighted/goaded into thinking they're girls. Or that they're Trans, going on blockers or hormones, etc. When all they really have to do is have someone who loves them explain to them that what they're going through is pretty normal, as in most people do and in a couple years they'll be fine. Then I say a silent prayer of gratitude that these activists and UA-camrs weren't around when I was that age.
@@AnthonySforza thanks for the insight. I think the idea of giving hormones to kids is terrible as they are still in the process of learning about themselves, and so im glad to hear your story. Most people turn out "cis" so its a very bad idea to force a different sexuality on your child just because theyre into girly/boyish things and they say they want to be another gender. I used to want to be a man pretty badly when i was about 12, i had guy friends and was into boyish interests. Now i have a boyfriend and i like being feminine, doing makeup and dressing up. I dont care about that stuff anymore, i know i can be a girl and i enjoy it.
@@AnthonySforza Indeed. I mean I like flowers and cooking and I'd beat the shit out of the guy who tries to take away the stuffed bear I've always had as a kid. Just having interests or hobbies outside what most would consider "normal" for your gender or sex doesn't make you any less that gender or sex. I can like cooking and MMA. Besides, who gives a shit what a bunch of randos think about how we live our lives?
'Kobieta'-Is that a Bengali name by the way?
@@vinayseth1114 no haha, it means "woman" in polish
So glad she clarifies that the loud trans activists dont represent all trans people. As a trans guy I agree with everything she says and am gonna buy her book rn.
@J K i think she was saying she was a girl and is now a man.............. soooooooooo want to try again??lol
@J K I think "trans guy" implies biologically female, living as a male.
@@alfairsoft Doesn't matter what gender he/she is, doesn't make them less of a human.
Imma just let you guys argue amongst yourselves.. annd go!
Unless you believe God makes mistakes he made ppl who they are intended to be. No hate I just don't agree
I always hung out with boys - every girl says this
Because at their core, women hate each other.
Misogyny is at the core of women who hate other women.
@@TheChuckFina Don't worry, men hate each other too, just in a different way.
not I . I refused to speak to a boy until I was 15
That really wasn’t a “debunking.” She states an assertion about gender and says “no this is the REAL science.”
Where have we heard that before.
Exactly! Very astute comment.
Finally! A scientist broke this down and explained it! I was getting so sick of people saying science explains there is more than one gender. In with her 100% I’m sick of ppl saying it’s science when it’s not yet I have no prob being respectful and using someone’s pronouns
I strongly recommend her book "The End of Gender." It has cited references. I thought it was gonna be a good read. It was a great read.
I m not gonna use someone pronouns.
If somebody wants to be called they/zer/bug/vampire I m not gonna do it, I will ask them to call me your excellency or your majesty, see if they agree to that. Most likely they will get pissed.
There are six biological sexes.
@@SwedishBlouse true, although not nearly as (much*) as trans activists want people to believe. The funny is these rare biological sexes have been proven by medicine and research as a result of genetic factors present before birth. The rainbow brigade consistently refers to gender being a social construct as an absolute truth, at the same time, they allude to these occurrences of rare genetic disorders of biological sex to normalize and validate transgenderism as natural. Their argument is so full of contradictions, how can you to point to biology as the root of gender of trans people, while also claiming that biological sex is NOT the deciding factor in gender identity and it is the result of social factors as well? I think more people need to be willing to accept that in many cases the significant driving factor of trans identity is mental instability, troubled individuals reaching for an obscure coping mechanism in an attempt to heal emotional,psychological, and sometimes physical trauma. If we can get everyone to accept that then society will see the criminal absurdity in supporting (irreversible) hormone treatment in children and physical mutilation.
@@radwansoueidan6390 No, it has nothing to do with that. It's because of reincarnation and it is a proven fact that there are people with 'female' brain structure but with a male body and vice versa. Most trans people were probably the opposite sex in their last life and are remembering it.
What she describes herself as is what we used to call a Tom Boy. Is that still allowed?
Her face though, not one expression at all.
We used to call epileptics "possessed".
I am not saying tomboy is right or wrong, just that old meanings aren't proof one way or the other.
I identify as 2Pac, an octopus, and a female version of Kid Cudi.
Some girls get bullied because of their manly traits, and in that case I would imagine they would prefer not to be called names that was used negatively against them.
Sure. Just gotta em full of hormones now and put em under the knife.
“It’s for their own good.”
Absolutely. I grew up wanting to be a boy. I had short hair, wore boy clothes and everyone that didnt personally know me thought that I was a boy. I am still not "girly" but did grow comfortable being a woman. I didnt want to be a girl until I was 14. I really did consider a sex change (probably not super seriously).
So scary to gove hormones to a child as they havent completely developed yet.
Steven Crowder said it best. "If my son comes up to me and says he thinks he's Superman, I'm not going to throw him off a rooftop."
no children are being put on hormones. this is right wing propaganda to scare people. at most kids are put on puberty blockers to delay puberty till they can make an informed decision when they are older and can choose which puberty to go through. also that's cool that you have found your gender identity but your personal anecdote doesn't invalidate trans peoples experience
@@xxgeimxx Puberty blockers are just as disgusting as the hormone treatments they give children. "Choose". There is no choice. You have a Y chromosome, or you dont. You all need mental help. Its child abuse
I agree with everything she’s saying, but how can she say she’s more like a boy? As a female, she has no way of knowing what it’s like to be male. I think what she means is that she’s not a stereotypical girl. Not all women enjoy girly things, that’s pretty normal. It just like how trans people feel they are a the opposite sex, but they don’t actually know what that feels like.
I'm a man trapped in a T-shirt and pants
Sir, you are so brave for raising your voice about this #GN77340
Whats your pronouns
I’m gonna recommend surgery
You should take puberty blockers and remove the skin off of your body and replace it with clothing and if the doctor says no because it's dangerous you should report the doctor for being transphobic and denying service to trans people, twitter would be proud.
@@Toinkity *twittcrap
"If I had a dollar for each gender out there, I would end up with two bucks and a bunch of fakes."
wait, what makes one gender real and another fake? don't you think it's kinda fucked up to say only the genders you own culture came up with are real and ones belonging to others are fake? (i mean like two-spirit, hijra, bakla etc.)
@@YouLikeKrabbyPattiesDontYou first off, Bakla is queer, not a gender
Secondly Two-Spirit is bigender, which has not been scientifically proven from what I've seen
And lastly Hijira is transgender, so still 2
Unless you have more examples, all of those really do not count, and maybe look into them, or did i say something wrong, correct me, simple
@@YouLikeKrabbyPattiesDontYou Biology
Please please let me use this quote, this is epic 😂
@geothon I would use the word counterfeits but fake works... 😄😄😄
I don't like the term "woman."
I prefer, "people with a cervix.'
Lol
Fallopians
We should use *holes* and *poles* . That would also make this sex-gender distinction explicit.
Taxtro holes and poles has legs!
I’m saluting that idea!
@@MrCmon113 *angry polish people noises*
You know people are sometimes born (though rarely) with both genitalia.
There is no spectrum of sex & Gender. There is only a spectrum of mental / psychological State
This whole thing started when we started to think that stupid people's feelings are THAT important and now we all have to deal with the consequences
It started with teaching intersectional feminism in college..
Yep
It started with you thinking people with a different viewpoint are stupid
You're RIGHT! We should stop caring about the opinions of people like you.
ImpinAintEZ It’s not viewpoint if it’s just their feelings and they are ruining people’s lives for it, they are nazis that should be put down.
I like to identify as an innocent man whenever the police catch me. Just a shame the judge doesn't respect my decisions and life choices.
Actually I find it quite sexiest that they don’t respect ur decisions and life choices

@A Friendly Hobo every time I get in trouble, I identify as Hillary, it works every time
@sweeney 1 doesn't change the fact that identifying as Hillary works every time

In the 90’s when I was in high school, the biggest shocker was, “Dude, did you hear Billy is GAY?”, lol. Times there are a chaaaaangin.... 🤘
Kids today are more like: Dude, did you hear John identifies with revolving doors? But only three days a week.
@@moondawwg lmao this is gold 😂
Billy is such a gay name
Lol well, I need a gem gay name please! For me
One thing I personally think we should focus more on when raising kids, maybe teaching them in school and making them aware of is that hardly anyone, ANYONE (at least it's what I think, people might not agree), enjoy puberty. I hated puberty, how my body changed, getting a period. I still hate getting my period to this day (I'm 25, got it when I was 11) and I avoid it like the plague whenever I can with birth control (approved by doctors and nurses but besides the point). Going from being a girl to a woman or a boy to man is uncomfortable for most people. A lot is changing and it's difficult to understand. Which is completely NORMAL. Acting like we should all go into puberty enjoying every second and feeling like we're completely in love with our bodies is not the reality for most people. I think this is important to show and tell young teenagers that it takes time to come to terms with. So being a girl and getting your period, boobs, hips etc and feeling like you hate your body doesn't necessarily mean you're trans it just simply means you are a teenager.
Shes like a man because she had the balls to say this.

@@lokichuurro Those don't look healthy, maybe go see a doctor about that. They shouldn't be red like that.
The way she debates and tries to win points in conversation is commonly a male trait.
