CarbonIceDragon ( @CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social ) 126•2 months agoSince there is insufficient cell differentiation at conception to produce any reproductive cells, does that mean that according to the white house, all people are legally non-binary now?
elfpie ( @elfpie@beehaw.org ) 19•2 months agoA little more seriously, we in fact start as non-binary instead of as female as it’s usually said. How nobody said that before?
Dragon Rider (drag) ( @dragonfucker@lemmy.nz ) English6•2 months agoBig Gender Binary is suppressing the narrative so that people don’t realise they used to be agender.
SharkEatingBreakfast ( @SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz ) English106•2 months agoYOU KNOW WHO I WORRY ABOUT COMING INTO WOMEN’S BATHROOMS, CONSERVATIVES?
CIS MEN.
I HAVE LITERALLY NEVER HAD A TRANS WOMAN MAKE ME FEEL UNSAFE IN THERE. BUT I HAVE HAD CIS MEN FOLLOW ME IN AND ATTEMPT ASSAULT.
MEN DON’T NEED TO GO THROUGH THE CONVOLUTED STEPS OF TRANSITIONING TO GAIN ACCESS TO WOMEN’S BATHROOMS, YOU FUCKING IDIOTS
MAYBE ADDRESS THAT FIRST? NO???
HOLY FUCKING SHIT
BestBouclettes ( @BestBouclettes@jlai.lu ) English31•2 months agoThey believe that anyone can claim they’re a woman now and that’s it. And once it’s done they can just walk into women’s bathrooms. They’re just telling on themselves, projecting on trans people. They’re just sex obsessed freaks, all of them.
SharkEatingBreakfast ( @SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz ) English17•2 months agoI know. I was raised in a fundie church. I did not escape unscathed. They’re fucked up perverts.

whome ( @whome@discuss.tchncs.de ) 1•2 months agoWe just had a Nazi change her legal status to woman probably to fuck with the system and try to get into a women’s prison. Now she will probably be send to a male prison and referred to as a woman.
flicker ( @flicker@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English22•2 months agoI’ve said that if I was wealthy, I would force legislation that was trans friendly by (as a cis woman) going into women’s bathrooms in Congress, standing on toilets, and staring at women.
Women’s bathrooms don’t have urinals! There’s no reason for anyone to be afraid of anyone seeing anything in there, unless they stand on toilets, and Im fully of the opinion that the gender of the person doing that has nothing to do with how creepy it is!!
Maybe if you’re actually worried, all bathrooms should be, I dunno, gender neutral with full doors that close all the way? For maximum safety?
And I believe nothing can get that point across quite like demonstrating that I, as an almost middle aged, fat woman who looks like I could safely run for a Rwpublican seat, standing on toilets and staring at people.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Turns out, (according to the US government) I was experiencing it all along.
Dragon Rider (drag) ( @dragonfucker@lemmy.nz ) English3•2 months agoNo, embryos don’t produce eggs.
GrilledCheese ( @GrilledCheese@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English3•2 months agoNot with that attitude they don’t! 🙃
Sibbo ( @Sibbo@sopuli.xyz ) English38•2 months agoWhat about people who produce neither?
TotallynotJessica ( @TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English37•2 months agoThey usually handwave and claim “they don’t count” because they can’t reproduce, assuming that somehow means they can be ignored.
lime! ( @lime@feddit.nu ) English17•2 months agoi don’t think embryos produce any reproductive cells right away so that handwave would have to cover… everyone
MBM ( @MBM@lemmings.world ) 2•2 months agoI especially like definitions that don’t even take menopause into account
TotallynotJessica ( @TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone ) English2•2 months agoIt’s like “sorry, but you’re only a real female post puberty and pre menopause” like old grannies aren’t women 💀

Yozul ( @yozul@beehaw.org ) 18•2 months agoI guess the nicest thing I could say about this is that I’m glad that if they’re going to be evil, at least they’re bad at it.
AnonomousWolf ( @AnonomousWolf@lemm.ee ) English17•2 months agoI would think “if you have a Y chromosome, you’re male” would be a better definition to fit what they’re trying to do
jonsnothere ( @jonsnothere@beehaw.org ) 16•2 months agoThere’s like a not insignificant 1% of people who are intersex where looking at chromosomes can get tricky.

GreyEyedGhost ( @GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca ) 1•2 months agoYou can be XY and present as female. There’s a handy little chart in this article to give you an overview of some of the more common things that happen between being an XX woman and being an XY man.
MBM ( @MBM@lemmings.world ) 6•2 months agoSurely there are also people who can produce both/neither reproductive cells. Definitely neither, at least.
kipo ( @kipo@lemm.ee ) English11•2 months agoChromosomes are almost never tested at birth, and so 99% of people walking around don’t actually know what chromosomes they have. Enforcing any law based on chromosomes for purposes like this would be nearly impossible.
Yozul ( @yozul@beehaw.org ) 3•2 months agoNobody’s checking the size of sex gametes that embryos are producing at conception, either. Didn’t stop them from saying that.
What, are they going to start having people provide sperm or eggs at the DMV so that they can use a set of tiny calipers to figure out how to fill out the gender on your license?
Swedneck ( @Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de ) 5•2 months agothe thing is that there is no good hard definition of sexes, the best you can do is just go “they fill the general role of male” but guess what! that includes trans people :))
DankOfAmerica ( @DankOfAmerica@reddthat.com ) English13•2 months agoWhy didn’t they say egg and sperm lol
“On” means a circuit belonging, at time of observation, to the larger number.
“Off” means a circuit belonging, at time of observations, to the nothing number.
These people are on a hilariously dumb level of evil. They can’t be for real with this.
inv3r5ion ( @inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English10•2 months agoBut at conception aren’t all fetuses female? Isn’t it a few weeks in or more that some become male? That’s at least partly why females have clitorises and males have nipples…
samus12345 ( @samus12345@lemm.ee ) English4•2 months agoFetuses don’t exist yet at conception. We’re all officially enbies now.

RandomVideos ( @RandomVideos@programming.dev ) 2•2 months agoSince they insist on things not changing, they should redefine age as the number of years you had been alive for right after birth
Everyone would be protected from any criminal charges because of their age
