“which isn’t quite real” what isnt real???  
and could you explain what ‘sophist’ is? what i understand from wikipedia is that its some kind of method used by wise asses?
 
aniway yeah, the “gender” concept needs to be universaly afixed to just one thing. :V
 
and wow lol’d t the “humours” thing
Background Pony #0052
@paluzna  
That sort of happens when you invent a concept to describe something which isn’t quite real, but you sophist your way into a definition. For other examples, look up the humours and how they essentially wrecked our understanding of how to treat diseases for quite some time.

so i wikipedia’ed gender…
 
Gender is the range of physical, biological, mental and behavioral characteristics pertaining to, and differentiating between, masculinity and femininity. Depending on the context, the term may refer to biological sex (i.e. the state of being male, female or intersex), sex-based social structures (including gender roles and other social roles), or gender identity.
 
so the drama comes from some people thinking of gender as your biological sex, others thinking its what society says it is, and others thinking it means a choice. well, fuck.

Yo, OP, source to the blog or the individual post, not the image itself; most people don’t care hard enough to go through Search By Image to find it themselves, and even that doesn’t work on images this new.

female brain
 
You’re thinking mind, not brain. There is no apparent structural difference between male and female brains; without a body attached, you can’t tell them apart without checking the chromosomes.
 
@direwolf1791  
Setting aside for a moment the fact that what’s between somebody’s legs is none of your business unless they choose to share, gender and sex are two different things. Sex is purely biological, and it’s not as simple as either/or; there are medical conditions that can cause someone who is genetically male to be physically indistinguishable from female and vice versa, and it’s possible to be both at the same time. Gender is mostly sociological, because to consider yourself a man or a woman (or somewhere in between, or neither, or variable, whatever) you first have to define what “man” and “woman” mean, and that varies wildly between cultures and societies and classes and eras.

I think the quote was meant to mean something like “no one else can tell you what you are” and the word choice came out a bit wrong to make it sound like a choice.

No, it’s what you have between your legs that determines your gender.

I think you guys are all overreacting. I just take this image to mean: “Male or female, what that means to you is up to you.”
 
Also tumblr SJWs tend to confuse gender and gender roles.
 
Also to poster: actually link the tumblr post or blog that you found this, please. Linking the actual .jpg is useless and it might as well not be sourced at all.

True. True.
 
I mean, take a look at Rainbow Dash for example. She is perfectly comfortable being a girl on the outside, while being both a girl AND a guy on the inside.
 
She just doesn’t give a flip. She’ll wear dresses she feels are attractive on occasion, she use male-exclusive phrases like ‘protecting a girl’s honor’, she’ll be feminine, she’ll be macho…she just doesn’t care about gender.

I wasn’t speaking specifically about trans people, since what I said I believe can really apply to literally everyone, but I understand your point and I think it stands regardless.  
And I’ll admit, I really don’t empathize with pain well. I try to, but I’ve never been great at it. It’s certainly one of my many shortcomings.

i am glad that you are supportive of trans individuals, but i wish you could understand their pain and not treat it as if it were a choice or did not matter.

That discontent can indeed by caused by biological circumstances, but it can also be triggered by sociological causes as well. And I don’t know how many times I can say it before it loses meaning, but you should do what makes you happy. If that means changing your body to match what feels ‘correct’ to you, or changing the way the world perceives you, or changing the way you act, that should be what you do.
 
Worrying about anything else is a waste of time.

You being all of us 18-39 year olds. At the least the places I go everyone is gay, so that seems to speed things up.

no actually, you are confusing the modern transGENDER individual popularized by tumblr types who believe gender is fluid and decided by the individual, with the actual disorder that there is physical evidence to prove that it is possible for a female brain to inhabit a male body, and vice versa

especially when there’s people who throw a bitch fit when people they don’t know and will never bother getting to know say what gender they are from looks and not from what the individual actually perceives to be. Those people are fucking wastes of meat. Or when they get butt hurt on things like bathrooms that only have men and womens restrooms. people like that are fucking idiots.

Yes, I actually happen to know what that is. A discontent with the gender your body is or the social norms expected of you by society.  
Once again, you should just be what makes you happy. I just believe we don’t need the labels in the first place. Society would be much happier if we stopped using them, even on ourselves.
