Genital configurations are a distraction. You can get incomplete/malformed genitals in individuals with disorders of sex development, but that doesn't change their sex. > Trans people are not beating up [cis] women in sports. This is plainly false. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallon_Fox#Mixed_martial_arts_... > During Fox's fight against Tamikka Brents on September 13, 2014, Brents suffered a concussion, an orbital bone fracture, and seven staples to the head in the 1st round. After her loss, Brents took to social media to convey her thoughts on the experience of fighting Fox: "I've fought a lot of women and have never felt the strength that I felt in a fight as I did that night. I can't answer whether it's because she was born a man or not because I'm not a doctor. I can only say, I've never felt so overpowered ever in my life and I am an abnormally strong female in my own right", she stated. "Her grip was different, I could usually move around in the clinch against other females but couldn't move at all in Fox's clinch." There's more examples here, but can we both agree that your statement is incorrect? You almost understand the truth. Forcing people into strict gender roles based on social mores is bad. Men can wear dresses and women can wear pants, etc. What I hope you'll understand is that just because you don't follow gender stereotypes doesn't mean you can change your sex. A man taking cross-sex hormones and getting surgery is still a man. Let's not sell him the lie that he will ever be a woman. Let's enlighten him that he should live his life and engage in as many masculine or feminine activities as he sees fit. |
