bigotry on fedi 

@masterofthetiger@theres.life @freemo @USBloveDog @Elizafox The original post in this conversation- or rather, series on the thread, is more along the lines that it is just as bigoted to 'hate all CisHet/Straight people' as it is to hate ENBIes/Trans/WhatHaveYous.

It is bigotry when you tell someone else that their non-harmful way of living is incorrect, wrong, evil, against the natural order.

Ultimately, it is not your business if someone born male or female in terms of biological sex is gendered differently than chromosomes and biology state.

You are more than welcome to believe there is a standard when it comes to gender.

I feel you'd be wrong in that belief, based on my own understanding of what, exactly, Gender is and how different societies have treated it. I feel there is factual proof that gender as normally understood is a construct of society, culture, and language.

I wouldn't feel comfortable saying there is a spectrum, or if there are a thousand different genders with their own names, or if there is just differing shades of a single gender, or if gender doesn't exist. I'm not well learned enough to make a concrete definition.

I can tell you, though, that I feel in that the same I feel about sexuality, and the same way I feel about religion:

If what you feel/believe/are isn't causing any harm to you or anyone else than you're in a perfectly legitimate spot. Fuck what other people think, in that case, and just you do you. I'll always support someone in that position- even if I don't agree with them.
