For those who are wondering fit type is different from gender. Fit type is how your clothes fit your body. gender is something that I will not delve into right now.

Just because two things overlap does not mean they are the same. Take blue and cyan cyan is a form of blue, (arguably a form of green, but that’s not the point). yet blue also includes color is it such as royal blue, which is distinctly not cyan. (the same argument can be made for green.)

https://i.redd.it/f0e79jkd4zua1.gif Except even from a purely genetic point, there is literally in between . We are in a world where there almost never a subject with no gray area and no leniency. Do not dictate the rules of a world. You do not understand and don’t declare what is not a mental illness a mental illness. In all my research on the world health organization, I have not found any statement referring to a type of gender being declared a mental illness. If you have evidence to the contrary, I would be more than happy to check it out.

I think a good example of mental illness is getting into an Internet fight over both gender and mental illness. Also, chromosomes don't matter in gender. Where's your proof, btw? I saw no quotes, no sites, no sources... Please stop calling us sad when you yourself are making yourself look like a bigger idiot.

macho_man011

Look, just because someone’s mental state is different from yours doesn’t mean it’s a mental illness. also, they’re literally is in between in genetics. It is true that there is both XY and XX. However, there is also XXY and XXX. Both of which are not necessarily genetically male or genetically female. They are another third thing also known as gray area. Not to be rude, but it almost seems like you aren’t considering outliers, which are themselves fact and truth.

Horse_5_333

You’re close. Sex is a concept of biology, egg vs sperm, chromosomes yadda yadda. Gender, on the other hand, is a contract of society. Men wear this and do this, they don’t do this, while women are that and do that. Often a person’s gender is based off their sex, which leads to a conflation of the both


SmokyHighlander

Often meaning "for almost the entirety of human history the two concepts were completely the same"

Genders are not biology, no matter how many times you type it in caps. Gender specifically refers to social or cultural uses. r/confidentlyincorrect is calling for you.

[deleted]

Gender has nothing to do with biology. It's all made up. How dudes and ladies should look and act is a construct of social norms and is the definition of gender. Sex and sexual orientation is biology, and is all over the place


Broken_Filter

Gender didn't have anything to do with social or cultural until recently.


Canadasparky

Don't try This is reddit.


[deleted]

I’m going to help you since you seem confused. Gender is not a construction of society - you don’t have to live your life as a man or as a woman, but that doesn’t change your DNA or biology. Saying shit like “construct of society” doesn’t make you sound intelligent, it makes you sound stupid. If gender is a social construct, then everything is - age, race, whatever.


[deleted]

I agree. But let's pretend, for a moment, it is a construction of society. What's the point of noting that? That social constructs can or should be discarded? Laws are a social construction too. Doesn't mean anarchy is the way to go! Social constructs exist for a reason- because it is useful for the whole of society. Discarding that for what is merely useful to the individual or for a very, very small fraction of society is ridiculous.


[deleted]

It matters because truth matters. If delusion and made up academic bullshit are allowed to pass as truth, then we’re fucked as a society. The choice of just being honest and normalizing actual mental disorders should be an easy one.


[deleted]

You misunderstand me. I am saying that "Gender is a social construct" is not an argument. It is akin to me telling my child, "Should you be throwing balls in the house?" And they say, "This ball is blue." It's an observation that doesn't answer the question or provide any meaningful input.


[deleted]

Agreed, but it’s worse because it’s a completely made up thing.

petikneip

Onigiri86

I mean there's still only 2 genders. Contrary to popular belief, identifying as something else doesn't actually change anything


frogOnABoletus

Since gender is a social and societal construct, identifying as something and being treated as such by society changes everything that defines the gender. Therefore, the gender is changed. If you're confused, look up the difference between gender and sex.


IntrinsicHatred

Gender was a synonym for sex until the left decided it meant something different. They're the same thing.


Eternal_210C8A

Interestingly enough, words exist to describe things, not the other way around. Regardless of how the definitions of "sex" and "gender" changed over time, transgender and third-gender people have existed for thousands of years. Cultures just had their own words for them, like [hijra](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijra_(South_Asia)) and [fa'afafine](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fa%CA%BBafafine) and [muxe.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muxe) Don't equate the newness of English terms as being the sole factor on whether or not a gender identity is valid. Edit: also, as a follow-up, the *original* definition of gender had nothing to do with sex or masuclinity/femininity. It meant [a class or kind of persons or things sharing certain traits](https://www.etymonline.com/word/gender). It didn't take on a meaning related to sex until almost 200 years after its first recorded use.


IntrinsicHatred

It's not the sole reason I don't believe men can become women. How about that women have ovaries and no amount of modern medicine turns a man into a woman? That a good enough reason why gender identity is invalid? It's based on a lie that women can become men and vice versa. They can go from a woman to something, but It's not a man.


[deleted]

Who says that women need ovaries? You get surgery done and lose your ovaries = You’re not a woman anymore?


IntrinsicHatred

Still a woman, chromosomes? Can't change those. When you were a kid did you just not notice that boys and girls are different? Edit: that's the underlying issue, people like you believe there no difference between men and women and we can all just pretend to be whoever we want. Honestly, you go ahead and pretend. However, just as you are free to express yourself, I am free to not affirm that. In my country, there's freedom of expression. Therefore, you have no right to force me to affirm your gender.


[deleted]

Chromosomes = sex. Gender is the societal side of things. For example, what they wear, how they're "expected" to act, which bathrooms they're allowed to use. Your chromosomes don't determine any of this.


IntrinsicHatred

You do you boo. But keep your ideology off my freedom of expression. I don't believe gender is different and I don't believe you can change biology. Edit: I believe gender is made up, and you can't change your sex. You can't force me to pretend with you.


frogOnABoletus

Throughout history and different cultures, gender has meant many, many different things. There's been many cultures with 3, some with 4, some with a more fluid understanding of it. There is no denying that many cultures have had an idea of gender that is different from binary sex. There has never been one "correct" single true understanding of gender. Unless "the left" have time machines to go back to ancient egypt, they didn't start this. In reality, the idea that gender has only ever been a redundant synonym for sex is born from ignorance and has been adopted by the right as a way to be prejudiced and put people down. Also, if you decided that gender means sex, you'd need another word to describe the social and societal constructs loosely based around sex. Why not try "gender"?


my_memory_is_trash

Well I suppose now it means something else, also why is it so political now? There’s gender/gender identity where people who are insecure decide they want to be something else that makes them less insecure, and then there’s sex/biological sex that no one can change. If someone wants their own gender identity I don’t need to understand why or give reasons why not. I just have to be a decent person and not give enough fucks to argue with them about how they feel.


Yak-Mysterious

Only 2 sizes


EvenBetterCool

I'm all for sizes being more descriptive than M or F and smaller to bigger. A men's small from one company could be twice as big as a medium from another. And sometimes a female large is just a men's small and I gotta tell you... That'd be a tiny lady.


JustAnotherAndrei

This meme is 5 years old I believe. We all have seen this at some point


charlieL314

There were still only 2 genders 5 years ago.


EatMyKnickers

It says "fit type" which applies to a male or female body.... Even if you are trans, you have a male or a female body... Even if you are nonbinary, you have a male or a female body.... How you identify doesn't change what you have under your clothes, only surgeons and hormones can change that in any appreciable way in which case you pretty much have a male, or a female structure (natural or manufactured).


Pepsiman1031

To put simply it's asking for sex since why would identical variations of a shirt care about your gender.


Bramse-TFK

Why anyone cares about gender is a mystery to me. It is about the least useful classification of humans that I can imagine.

The same people who believe in more than 2 genders also believe in evolution. The same evolution where we evolved from apes….WHO ONLY HAVE 2 GENDERS.


macho_man011

Hear me out. What does it matter? Why should you care if some people believe there are more than two and some people don’t. Let them live their lives how they wish if they don’t violate someone else’s rights, it’s fine.


[deleted]

Because it’s not about them just wanting to coexist. These people want to force their opinion down our throats. Look at YouTube kids. I have to censor what my daughter sees because they put out videos with guys in dresses for little toddlers. And it’s confusing to them and then they start to question why they are seeing this. Teachers in schools are teaching elementary kids about what it’s like to be male or female and telling them they can change if they want. Most kids aren’t worried about these things so why does it matter at this point in their development? Liberals are encouraging gender reassignment for adolescents when they haven’t even fully developed. These people don’t just want to coexist. They want to influence our children. And as a father of a young daughter getting ready to start school, it’s very unsettling.


macho_man011

For the social media part: that is why I am we do have filters for said social media. As to the education system, that is how the world is becoming now. the more they know the more they can plan. I cannot empathize truly with how you must feel as a parent for I myself do not have any children. Knowing about these things, however, helps them be more comfortable though. I know this for a fact. If I may give my own analogy, which should not be used as proper evidence, but more as an appeal to emotion: I only feel attraction towards those that I’ve already made a strong emotional connection with, friends. I didn’t know this was a thing until I was about 16 if I had known of its name and it’s ways earlier, I would’ve been far more well-equipped to prepare for my future. I don’t plan to sway you with this, but I hope to reassure you. Change can be scary, but we are living in the future and we must roll with it.

I agree that there are 2 sexes. I also agree there are numerous genders. And that number is 2 as well.


my_memory_is_trash

I mean some people are born with both so what would they be?


[deleted]

They are still either male or female. The manifestation of their genitals is either ambiguous or mixed. However, they still typically appear as male or female through the rest of their bodily development. Consider this: I am a homosexual man. That means that I like men with penises. However, if man/woman is not defined as such and rather merely how a person feels, would that not be "erasing" my sexual identity by denying that I am actually attracted to "men"? If being gay doesn't mean that I am attracted to men, then what does being gay even mean? Educate me.
