> Things aren’t as clean cut as you desire them to be.

Things are exactly how they are, wishing for human nature to be different is a pointless enterprise that I try my best to avoid.

Luckily, a simple Internet search can settle the question for you!

> Why do you care so much about gender?

I don't care much about gender, it's just a grammatical concept (honestly, less interesting than verb tenses or noun declensions). I care a lot about sex, because it's intimately linked to reproduction, which is the strongest human instinct, without it human life would not exist. Kind of like how people care about "food" and "water".

So you think the existence of trans people will end sexual reproduction? Could you be a little more clear?

I never even mentioned transsexualism, don't know where you are getting that from?

So could you be more clear? Why do you so desperately need to call this person a “man”?
I never referred to Admiral Levine's sex anywhere in this thread before this comment—you may be confusing me with another commenter. He is in fact a man, because he is a human with male genitalia (optimized for producing sperm). If I were to claim he was not a man, I would be lying, and lying is wrong.
Well thank gosh you’re not a liar :-)
It is an argument in bad faith. His comments and submissions are full of anti-trans language. The fact he wants to define what women are and what they can do with their bodies speaks of having only theoretical knowledge of women.
