"Also normally one can not know how many X and Y chromosomes an unknown person has, one can only assume on the basis of their appearance, so transgender women are strongly affected by the social norms for women."
why? I think we should treat transgender people how they want to be treated but there are situations where we have to make a exception. I think I explained pretty well where and why I would make those exceptions. How do you think we should treat transgender people? |
"I think we should treat transgender people how they want to be treated but there are situations where we have to make a exception."
you think they should be treated how they want to be treated until you don't... that's my point
"How do you think we should treat transgender people?"
with respect, but that does not mean that the notion that men can simply become a women or vice versa through "identity" completely disregarding the biological basis from which we derive genders is the way to go
its an obvious mistake to do so... as jaicee has mentioned in this thread, one obvious consequence is that in doing so we run the risk of eliminating male and female as categories
and then why should mike tyson not be able to go head to head with rhonda rousey if the concept of man and woman don't mean anything?
why should we bother to advocate for women's issues when women don't exist?
.... i mean i don't really get how people cannot see what is at stake here
