There are only 2 genders

There are only 2 genders.

Discuss.

Like it matters
Neither will fuck you OP

Physically yes but psychologically we have around 47 genders

no, this does not account for mutants such as hermaphrodites...

let's make this a hermaphrodite thread

nothing to discuss, you've stated everything to it.

There is only 1 gender. An asshole is an asshole.

It's so hard to find pics of intersex people, they're too rare

I hate this gender shit. This generation is retarded

2nd year medical student.

It is not necessarily true that there are “scientifically” or “physiologically” 2 sexes. There are lots of diseases that make it pretty ambiguous. My favorite is one called androgen insensitivity syndrome, where you have an XY but the body completely ignores the Y, so you develop as a perfect female by default, but without a uterus. There are lot s of chromosomal disorders that make it even less clear. Things like CAH and hermaphroditism are also pretty ambiguous.

But let’s just say that a person has a normal set of sex chromosomes and feels legitimately miserable as their own gender. Let’s even say it’s a mental illness. If it IS a mental illness, there is no current way to treat such a thing, which is why psychiatrists (you know, the people who treat mental illness) suggest that the transition process is a good thing - because it’s an actual treatment that relieves the problem. Most are happy after the transition. Let them fucking be happy.

Simple. Your mother and father.

>2nd year medical student
congratulations, you know nothing

sex is simply determined by what gametes you make. males make motile gametes and female gametes are not.

with regards to gender, I genuinely don't care, if you identify as something that isn't human spay or neuter yourself

There is multiple versions of cars but there's trucks tooooo

This

Stfu you genderless faggot

I'd be willing to accept 3. Male, female, and other for people who feel like neither one fits them.

Mental illness can be encouraged by hanging out with other people with mental illness or browsing certain types of porn. Most trans people will eventually hit an age wall where they can no longer keep up with their body dysphoria and will end up killing themselves. Encouraging and caving in to the dysphoria will only make more room for the dysphoria to grow. It also creates new trans people because young people who are confused think they can change their gender by will. We know that there are historically no trans people, so that raises the question if its our modern society putting ideas in peoples heads.

Transitioning will only open up a whole new box of mental illness to spread. Disconnect yourself from all the tranny porn and trap threads, because it will only influence you in a bad way. The best way to treat it is to ignore it, be happy with your body and live your life. If anything, be a regular gay guy.
My comment might sound harsh, but i'm only worried about these people because i care about them and have seen the negative effects it has on them.

I thought there was 54 or some shit?

>It is not necessarily true that there are “scientifically” or “physiologically” 2 sexes.
Wrong.. and you should know this, as a med student. There are two sexes, and they are determined solely on the type of gamete they are set up to produce. Basic stuff, med student user...

>because it’s an actual treatment that relieves the problem. Most are happy after the transition.
Jesus, no. The vast majority of people that transition (surgically, not hormonal) have body dismorphia. And when their body issues are not solved as a result of the transition-- which few ever report as resolved (26%)-- their risk of depression goes up by orders of magnitude, and their mortality rate (due mostly to suicide) goes up by 95%.

>Let them fucking be happy.
Or, we should inform them, so they make an informed decision about risks and rewards. Instead of treating them like political pawns. Pic related.

The very definition of gender is considered psychological and societal, yet you post a picture of two different body parts, none of them a brain (the psychological organ)
Your argument is therefore invald since you don't even know anything about the word you use.
Some people should just refrain from using words with more than three letters since they can't seem to grasp the meaning of them.

Are you literally retarded? What sex is bacteria? What sex are down syndrome XXYs? Other deformed chromosomes? kys.

most stupid comment so far

bacteria is asexual user

what happened to her feminine penis?

>The very definition of gender
Kind. It means kind.
>The modern English word gender comes from the Middle English gender (also gendere, gendir gendyr, gendre), a loanword from Anglo-Norman and Middle French gendre. This, in turn, came from Latin genus. Both words mean "kind", "type", or "sort".

/thread

...

> type, to sort
> archetypes, psychological systems of self reference

Shits not that far, they where base for their use of words. Their concept of love was more complex than shit-tier societal marketing, example "the love of will". Deep concept.

...

Only if we can also make this a trap thread.

> unusually small and deformed penis, barely feminine
> bucci prolapsed and awkwardly emerging at base of pelvis

Isn't our mind our body, if we are born male isn't our mind thus male and anything else retardation?

>implying urges are mainlined
>implying because you think a thing others are it
>implying that people don't think a thing then self-identify as it if they think hard-well enough, inspite of lack of being a shapeshifter

How come whenever historians trace DNA of old vikings or whatever the fuck they can they can determine the gender of what the body is making gender something you're born with that's in your DNA

yet dweebs think its a choice

Am I being trolled I can't even tell anymore?

Read Judith Butler, and report back.

You mentioned it why dont you enlighten us you lowest form of name dropping pseud. Nobody cares for your nobody or you kys.

XY XX thats is it, nothing can change that

>What sex is bacteria?
Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms that reproduce asexually. So neither, null, etc.

>What sex are down syndrome XXYs?
Their sex is determined by the gamete they produce, either sperm or eggs. Which is determined by whether they have testicles or ovaries.

>Other deformed chromosomes?
With XX, XY, XXY, XYY, XLGTBQ+Y, etc., you either end up with testes or ovaries. That determines your sex. There are extreme cases where there is both types of tissue present, and these people have no sex-- they are intersex. So, there are two sexes, and the one in a fucking million chance of being intersex. And that's almost always caused by environmental factors during pregnancy, so you can't exactly call it normal in any way.

>TL;DR: You are a giant retarded faggot. And if you're the med student user, please, for the sake of people with medical problems... please drop out now.

Gender is the range of characteristics pertaining to, and differentiating between, masculinity and femininity.

So. Technically any description that pertains to male or female is a gender.

There are only male and female biological sexes.

There are countless gender descriptions. Such as "That man has a feminine penis" is a gender description. "That dyke has a tiny pussy" is a gender description.

You can't be a gender. You cannot be a description. You are a boy or a girl. You may be a agender, genderless, androgyne, bigender, genderqueer, non-binary, gender bender, hijra, pangender, queer heterosexual, momapussyeater but you are still a fucking possibly mentally ill man or woman.

nice pussy on that one...

>There are two sexes, and they are determined solely on the type of gamete they are set up to produce.
at least someone isn't retarded. the other two points require a citation, but I'm certainly glad I am cis gender
it must be terrible having a double digit iq

what a faggot

What a momapussyeater.

>moma pussy eater

I'll take it

Nah, neurology is complex and your stance was an autistic internet-extrovert answer that seeks to pretend intellectually a deterministic structure of ideas can wield others natures, desires, and will while somehow making the thinker somehow so exempt from said systemic rigor to fathom of things as if from outside the box.

It is classic pseudo-intellectualism.

Neurology is flexible... hell, we are singular entities that try to think as non-self entities when we can only think as self-entity. If madness can be said to exist, then so can true altruism.

Ultimately, you are wrong. And, the naysayers of intent and drive can be wrong about intentions of people... good-willed people can also be retardedly incapable of applying the ideas of virtue and not even know it.

or the fascinating case where the SRY gene or it's receptor is non functional in an XY individual, resulting in a female with a male karyotype

>the other two points require a citation
They were long term (decades) Swedish studies on the effects of SRS on happiness and mortality rates. They were not very hopeful, and that's coming from the SJW capital of the world. They should be easy to Google, if you are interested (stats came from two studies that were related).

what are the fascinating odds of this happening?

still a deformity/disease

Did the person to have testicles, or ovaries?

I'm still at university, and last year one of these sjw types explained the two gender thing... And I got it.

It's a semantic issue, we are using the colloquial term for gender, as sex.
They are using it as the idea of society perceiving you, the scholar dictionary term.

When people argue about this, they are not arguing about the same thing. Them ones aren't arguing that people are born nto more than two sexes, they argue that some people don't fit the social archetypes of the classic male and female.

I still think it's bullshit and it has more to do with personality than gender

And what determines these kinds, who is the grand arbiter of this or that kind? There is no gender a priori, it is all societally defined, "kinds" like you said. For instance, the person on the left looks like a man, and the one on the right a woman, but they are respectively trans men and woman, your mind makes these gender associations based on how they look and act, and not actually what they truly are.

male gendered cable goes into female gendered cable

Yes.

I wasn't arguing anything. Just defining gender.

I was just using your post to make a broader point, the fact that the word gender has its etymological roots in the word "kind" is revealing

Fake news. Last time I checked we had over 70 genders.

>Let them fucking be happy.
teach them to be content with not cutting their penis in half and folding it inside out faggot

>anomalies are sexes
Kys

>lies about SRS and HRT results
Double kys faggot cuck

>>It is not necessarily true that there are “scientifically” or “physiologically” 2 sexes
>diseases
>chromosomal disorders
For a medical student you sure don't seem to grasp the basic concept of these two things.

6 GORILLION GENDERS

>What sex are down syndrome XXYs
> Other deformed chromosomes
They're fucking defects you retard. What they are has no bearing on healthy people.

SJWs do this:
>argue that gender is a social construct
>argue that there are more than two genders (basically infinite)
>argue that identity is determined by gender, or the other way around, or both simultaneously
>argue that biological sex is not real (not joking, this is the supposed consensus)
>argue that transsexuals are born the wrong sex for their born gender
>creating almost unlimited inconsistencies

And then ignore the fact that the entirety of their argument defaults onto everything fitting into literally two polar descriptors: male and female.

Normal people have understood all of this for all of our existence: there are men that like to do female things, and women that like to do male things. This is independent of their sex, and no one has ever been expected to fit the norm perfectly (different societies have had different ways and levels of accepted gender expression, depending mostly on circumstance). Liberal societies (read: liberal, not progressive) have largely said it's okay to have ANY gender expression; this is because liberalism is highly individualistic. It's okay for people to be infinitely variable. Tomboys exist, and while there is pressure to be more like the norm (as there is with literally everything), people are not persecuted for their differences.

Progressives, on the other hand, HAVE to lump people into categories, because individualism is horrific to them (it undermines the basics of their ideology). So progressivism gets stuck in double-think. And they have to set things up in oppressor/oppressed dichotomies, because their ideology is completely dependent on power dynamics.

>reddit.com/r/asktransgender

my theory on this type of shit is that it's a fucking echo chamber of people spewing shit that conforms with their beliefs exclusively and encouraging each other and numerous gender confused lurkers to become transgender.

RIP

Nouns have genders, people have sexes
You've been jewed

Yes you are correct.

oh god i know who that is

i didnt need to see this today

what happens when a medical issues is exactly affects a sex?, like the uterus cancer or the prostate cancer, the treatment is unique by a sex.

people are nouns
>my theory on this type of shit is that it's a fucking echo chamber of people spewing shit that conforms with their beliefs exclusively and encouraging each other and numerous gender confused lurkers to become cisgender
if by theory you mean untested hypothesis, then yes there's your hypothesis

/Thread

says he doesn't care

clearly cares a whole lot

Who is it?

The new "gender" topic is a hard one to swallow (pun intended), but once we get over it, the world will be a better place. The freedom to be what and who you want with no fear of being criticised or judged. Its a good thing. Just really fucking obnoxious how they are shoving it in cunts faces lmao

theory has evidence to back it up. i have evidence, it's not untested. so no, I meant theory.

I identify myself as an Attack Helicopter.

So if people think they are a cat (google a case from Sweden) then their neurology is actually correct and they're not just a fucking retard, like 'trans'. Yeah seems legit, pseud.

That's a nice looking dick, I'm jealous.

Meant this degenerate throwing words together pretending its meaningful sentencing like Descartes (a paid off vatican shill)was actually right in mind being a separate form/substance to body like literal schizophrenia split mind-body wooooo lad
