… history has little bearing on modern knowledge? Are you trolling me right now? Who says “history has no bearing” and actually means it. It took us this long to have a modern notion of sex and gender, because we’ve been trying to have an understanding of it for thousands of years. Take a wild, homophobic stab in the dark as to why it took this long.
Actually, seeing all your other replies in here I’m thinking this is too much trolling to be a real conversation. I’m going to go cause I really don’t think you’re asking in good faith at this point.
“I guess this is different experiences with different education systems throughout the country. Im pretty old and I was taught about non xx, xy conditions in both health classes and biology. Now granted over time you forget much of the details. So things like this don’t seem hidden to me. Now granted particular bodies that have been found not so much but im not sure when the particular archeological discoveries where made. Some may be after I was in high school. I still see them having little bearing on the modern notion of choosing ones gender as opposed to it being the same as ones sex (with intersex people by and large being in one and just trying to fit in). All the same I believe everyone has the right to be who they want to be as long as they are not hurting anyone else. When it comes to bathrooms and sprots teams we could always get rid of the distinctions anyway. Small ones have usually been either or sex with a lock for privacy and larger ones just need the floor to ceiling style stalls. Mens teams have for a long time allowed anyone who can compete we just get rid of the men/women thing and do leagues like we do now. A, AA, AAA or whatever.”
which is not a generality. I really don’t get how I could be using whataboutism as I did not even bring up the whole historical aspect but just responded to it. I do wonder though if folks are seeing complete conversations and indeed if I am. I have noticed a think where I get notifications but then I can’t see them in the threads. This makes me wonder if I or others are seeing all the conversations. Some of the replies I get here sound like I brought up some sort of trans is not historically supported thing and as I have said. I did not even bring that up as for me the history does not matter as historical stuff can be bad (if you saw my slavery remark). Its about bodily autonomy for me. Now as for why myself or others are may not be seeing everything its either something about the federation system but it could also be (at least for me) because I have blocked domains, magazines, sites, and folks. So maybe I did that to myself.

I don’t know as I did not say that. I said:
