I don't think it's ever to okay to discriminate against someone over how they appear, but you have to understand that some people will get freaked out when they see something which appears out of the ordinary to them. Biologically, humans are divided into two sexes: male and female. Males and females have physical traits which distinguish them from the other sex. Many people see sex as a part of humanity and if someone doesn't "look" either male or female, then to some people they don't "look" human. While it easier said than done for people to change their bodies, people still see at as a "grooming" issue where frankly at a certain point like with clothes, hair, etc. it seems like it's less about someone expressing their individuality and more about that person just looking like ****. It's not nice to say that out loud, but nearly everyone thinks that about someone they see. People's brains are naturally wired to judge other people's appearances to an extent, and if they see someone who looks "in-between", their first thought is going to be "WTF?" even if they are supportive of transgender rights.
yeah ik people think that. pretty much everyone assumes gender based on looks. i just wish that wouldnt be the case.
and it doesnt justify harassment, bullying or abuse. ik u didnt write that it justifies it but what i wanna say is that what matters the most is how people are treated.
obviously i'd rather have all gender stereotypes and all that stuff Killed but that's not realistic and very far away from the world we live in so yhh

Envy, dino, gyro, forestyne, visibleghost: If I could clap any louder, I'd get thrown out of this bar that I'm at lmao. I WISH I knew y'all in RL. You sound like some cool peeps.
There are two genders. I don't care what you call yourself, others should call you that. If you identify with male, use the boi's room. If you identify as female, use the gal's restroom. Now, don't just go around identifying yourself as male or female to get into the restrooms and cause devastation upon people using the restroom.

That's what they meant...??
Yep, I think it's time for this discussion to end.
I hate to say, but the whole debate on whether there are two or more genders has gotten very controversial and is best to be left out of the debate. That kind of debate fuels heated arguments to where it goes out of control. That, and I already seen some hard arguing. It sure went well on the first 50 posts, but I wouldn't think it did go well near the end. I know it hasn't gotten ugly yet, but to prevent this from getting worse (since I know some subjects like # of genders get really heated), I should request lock.
Party's over!

from my view, the majority of the posts on this thread have presented logical, factual information in a polite and often, repeated for the sake of clarity and emphasis manner.
Idk the one below my last comment sounded pretty rude...
