So now there will finally be wage equality. All the previous males will be getting a 23% pay cut.
What if due to age, condition or procedure you don't produce any?
I feel even if they went with this, there could be better ways to define it.
No one produces sperm at conception. No one produces sperm at birth. It's nonsense legislation.
Best part is, in order to prove I'm a man, I need to wank and they need to check on a lab.
ATM my gender is SchrΓΆdinger's
I for one accept my new government assigned gender!
Now when are they passing that government assigned discord kitten legislation?
It's cool and all to dunk on their logical fallacies, but don't think for one second that their poor wording will stop them from enacting untold violence against trans people.
No question. But the memes are copium for this dark age we are entering. π
name checks out (the [they/she] part)
...that's not how that works.
Early stages of development are bipotential, which means they could develop either way, they're not initially female.
Around 6-7 weeks, if carrying a Y chromosome carrying the gene SRY, they develop into testes. If there are two X chromosomes, then ovaries develop.
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...
People too often forget that its as important to be critical of the things you believe in as well ad the things you don't.
You should be constantly questioning and reassessing your own beliefs.
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.
Yes, they can throw a few asterisks in there to sort it out, agreed.
...So we're all legally non-binary? NBs rise up!
No, it's very binary, because it's either or.
Right, but if you start as bi-potential, then you aren't one or the other, but are in an a tertiary in between state.
Yes, but you're not born like that, you are one or the other.
Isnt that kind of the point? The EO specifies at conception, not at birth. Birth has nothing to do with this.
The point is, it's binary. Non binary would mean there's a lot of different options. There's not. Just two.

Trump declares ~~himself~~ herself the first female President of the USA? π³
(Edit: Excuse me Mrs. President, I had misgendered you.)
He's so petty he had to steal that title from both Hilary and Kamala it just took him this long...

Trans women loves this one weird trick that trans men hate!
Technically no. They aren't male or female, they're undifferentiated. Since we're neither male nor female at conception, this order means males and females don't actually exist at all.

Turns out they were always asking, "What is a woman?" because they had no idea either.

I didn't consider this option, but it seems to be an easy fix to the whole gender thing. Everyone is female. period. *(no pun intended)
Own that period joke. You conceived it, whether accidental or not, so you should carry it to term.

I think this is actually more gender abolitionist if you think about it. No one is producing reproductive cells/gametes at conception. They begin by producing undifferentiated stem cells that will later specialize into all of the other cell types.
Male and female now officially retired. Rejoice!

Trump increases the wage gap rather unconventionally.
The fem-cel community has already accepted me even though I'm a cis straight white guy who's asexual (so voluntarily celibate) but I'm happy I can now finally check one box and accept myself as a femcel.
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)
It's a spectrum. For example you're friends who wish they weren't asexual are valid and are asexual. I do not feel the same way.
I have the ability I don't have the desire. I actually have children. I've also had girlfriends suggest various things like maybe I have low testosterone. Never got checked for low t. It's not something I'm really interested in fixing. I'd compare it to wanting crack cocaine. You don't want it now, maybe there is a way to make you want it... Why tho? Seems like an extra complication to life. As for relationships: the ones I've had haven't been great. The ones my friends have don't seem all that great either.
I'm good. I've got my books and no desire for anything more . What is there to fix? Why should I fix it if I'm already fine? Why should I make myself want more than I already have if I'm already happy? You normal people don't seem all that happy with it, why would I want it? I'm good .
How much time do you spend trying to get sex or a relationship? How much time would you save if you... Didn't... And you didn't want it? Why would you want to want something so time consuming.
Edit: what i mean is from my view point people are basically asking "why don't you try to create this void in your soul then Spend your entire life working on filling it... Mostly unsuccessfully, and failed attempts will be very very painful, but one day you MIGHT fill the void and you'll be happy because that void is now filled!"
Why the fuck would I want that. It sounds awful. You guys go right ahead tho. I'm not judging. I'm just say "nah man I'm good"
Thanks for sharing. I totally see your point. When I was younger, the need and the availability to satisfy it really didn't line up. Kinda sucked.
It sounds to me like you are aromantic too. Am I catching that right? I would separate chasing a relationship from chasing sex.
Personally I need a partner and a sex life. Wanting a teammate for life is the best thing to me. The other is just really fun to me.
Anyway thanks for sharing! It was really interesting reading your perspective!
Much like anything else, being asexual is a spectrum. It took me a very long time to figure out I was and that's because I personally didn't get any physical satisfaction out of sex, but I enjoyed the part where I made my partner absolutely melt with pleasure. Feeling romantic or emotional pleasure from sex is not uncommon, especially when coupled with someone who gets a ton of pleasure from it. That being said, I haven't had sex in over a year, and from the way things look, I'm not going to for a very long time. I won't say it's voluntary though it's definitely not because my partner doesn't want to.

What a roundabout way to get unisex bathrooms.
Congratulations to women, your public bathrooms will be less crowded. To my trans brothers and sisters, see you at the sink!
