Political Memes

No one produces sperm at conception. No one produces sperm at birth. It's nonsense legislation.

No question. But the memes are copium for this dark age we are entering. 😭

name checks out (the [they/she] part)

Except it is pointless to talk about any of that, since the order defines what male and female means.

Males are those belonging at conception to the sex producing small reproductive cells (aka sperm).

Females are those belonging at conception to the sex producing large reproductive cells (aka eggs).

Since at conception I (and everyone else) did not produce either, I am now neither male nor female according to the new definitions.

These posts just show that the loudest people on the left are just as scientifically illiterate as the loudest people on the right :( I mean, it's mostly just reading with understanding they fail at, not even lacking knowledge...

But aren't the sex chromosomes decided at the moment of conception (or even with the sperm/egg). They need to work on their bigotry, it's frankly just basic biology. "their legal gender is their sex chromosomes upon conception". Although that opens another can of worms for those people whose chromosomes don't match their genitals, but I'm sure they can throw a few asterisks in there to sort that out.

...So we're all legally non-binary? NBs rise up!

What I understand about the “intention of the text” is that:

That's probably the intention, but because it was written by somebody with zero academic biological experience that is also trying to cosplay as a professional writing a rigorous definition, it fails to do so.

XY: male. XX: female.

Would you like to hear a crazy secret? We biologists don't use the words "gender" and "sex" separately because we feel like it, there is a major difference between the too. Want to hear something even crazier? We don't use "XY = male!" as our definition either.

People who’s body or mind don’t match with their genes

Huh... where else do you think their traits come from? Their soul? Their zodiac sign? Your phenotype is nothing but your genes + regulated expression from the environment.

then be a male or a female with one or a combination of hormonal, developmental, or psychological issues

Are blond people just a male or female with a developmental issue in their hair's pigmentation? Or for this specific category of human diversity you're okay with calling them what they are rather than trying to define what wild type genomic expression is the "correct"? I mean, a person with XY chromosomes but a mutated SRY gene would develop entirely as a female, your worldview seems to imply that's "hormonal and developmental issues!" but then I'd love to hear your views on race - or in fact, I would much rather not hear them, if they follow the same logic as your initial proposition.

While we are here, how about the XY individuals with a working SRY gene that physically develop as male, but have certain neural activation patterns only found in women and that swear they were born in the wrong body from a very young age? Why exactly are we going to discard the biological evidence to their subjective perception, just because it makes you uncomfortable? Because if that's the case, maybe your subjectivity makes me uncomfortable... should we start listing and denying aspects of your physiology too?

What about:

XYY?

XXY?

XXX?

… What’s the point of commenting when you didn’t even bother to read the post?

Own that period joke. You conceived it, whether accidental or not, so you should carry it to term.

But are you voluntarily celibate if you are asexual? I don't mean it as a gatcha or something, but as a philosophical question.

In my social circle, the asexual people seem like they would probably prefer to be non- asexual because it is easier to find a partner for life if sex is not a no-go. So clearly their asexuality is not voluntary, they just are what they are. now acting on the involuntary part of yourself, is that a voluntary action?

(Sidenote: I am not saying that these asexual people aren't accepting who they are, or think it is bad that they are what they are. Personally I think being pansexual is the best because you got all the options, while I seem to be straight and I am very comfortable with it and feel like I am living a comfortable and fulfilling life with my partner. So I really mean 0 hate towards asexual people or anyone else. I am just talking about the practical impaction of sexualities in our given social norm)
