i don't believe there are more than 2 genders.
>>
>>6339598
someone made a book of that shit thats fucking hilarious.
>>
>>6339603
Explain third gender individuals in many cultures. Explain a biological male on female hormones or a biological female on male hormones.

You can accept that genders arise from sex and that's fine but in a world where we have people whose sex is somewhere between male and female trying to push a gender dichotomy is foolish.

>>
>>6339676
They are just transsexuals. i.e men or women. They get the third gender label because of historical inability to actually convert them so they are stuck in limbo as a man who acts like a woman or whatever. Please take your tumblr trash to hell with you
>>
>>6339691
Who's being tumblr now? A man cannot change their biology to that of a woman's completely. They can adopt some aspects of it and it is polite to treat them as women and call them women but they are ultimately not biologically fully women. Nor are they men because their biology sure as hell isn't male anymore. They are somewhere between men and women.
>>
>>6339705
only because we don't have the tech to fix it. That anon already implied that but tumblrinas can't use their brains at all so they bitch to hard. Stop moaning and suck my cock hoe.
>>
>>6339685
lol I was just going to look for a pic of them to post. That's what I thought as well.
>>
>>6339732
Sure thing. Meanwhile, on EARTH, if genders 1) arise from sex via behaviors induced through biology e.g. hormones and 2) transwomen and transmen are different from men and women in some neurological respects and 3) there's a spectrum between male-typical and female-typical genders then there are more than 2 genders and denying that is denying biology.
>>
>>6339705
If you consider that some women bio women have large jaws and even Y chromosomes then yes they can. Your 2000 gender bullshit is why everyone hates us. Please fuck off and die.
>>
>>6339753
gender is not sex first of all and second you are talking about disorders of sex development. Which most intersex people identify as either male or female.
>>
>>6339784
>>6339774
Gender may not be sex but gender arises from sex because biochemistry dictates behavioral trends. It also partially arises from culture, that much is true. Most transsexuals make the effort to effectively become intersex in order to adopt as many elements of the other sex's biology as they can. Since gender partially arises from sex is it that strange to think of them as being "intergender"?
>>
>>6339807
Not to imply that, culturally, they don't belong to the gender they've adopted, yes? Transwomen ought be treated as women, but from a scientific standpoint denying the difference is strange.
>>
>>6339598
Where's my Slaanesh symbol?
>>
>>6339807
i consider transsexualism to be intersex not intergender because like you said gender is influenced by a biological background.
>>
>>6339676
transgender = transfering from one gender to the other ( mtf or ftm ).
And I would say this is the only case , because there are indeed neurological differences with transgender people , and the idea has existed for millennia .
But it stops there . No tumblr trash .

If you put stuff like queergender or genderfluid through google trends , you can pretty much realize that those things are no more than a trend that appeared in early 2010

That pic looks like a renaissance alchemist's mercury-induced delirium

Without falling into the tumblr argument:

>letting people find their way in life and sexuality
>overclassifying stuff into a thousand restricted niches

Pick one.

tbqh I'm interested in the book, but it doesn't seem to have been pirated yet and I sure as fuck am not going to shell cash for a random 4chan recommendation.
>>
>>6339831
I think we almost agree. Here's my line: a brain raised on the chemical diet of one sex then masculinized/feminized via hormones becomes distinctly different from the brains of both men and women and has its own set of behavioral tendencies. If we make effort to enumerate the different gender behavior tendencies of individuals based on their sex - say, for a study - then those brains would deserve additional entries. What is gender but such a profile combined with some culture-specific aspects? I actually think tumblrites would throw a fit at such a biological view of gender.
>>
>>6339862
See my response to the other kind Anon. Yes, I agree that tumblr's 10000 gender list is bullshit. I just also think the dichotomy fails us in the strange new world of human self modification.
>>
>>6339877
It depends on how much hormones are in your system then. If you have a low amount then you can be more neutral in your thinking but they have looked at cis brains and trans brains and there are clear cut white matter differences between males and females even with the hormones at play.
>>
>>6339894
It is definitely a spectrum where one tends more toward one side than the other, but, say, on a 1-100 scale being at 70 when most individuals are at 1-10 and 91-100 is very unusual.

There are two distinct genders that signify the typical behaviours of the biological sexes. You don't have to invent all these additional attention-seeking genders because you behave slightly atypically of your biological gender.

In the case that a individual of a specific gender experiences gender dysphoria strong enough that it interferes with their day to day life, then they can either (if they're younger than x age) get hormone treatment and gender reassignment in order to change their outward appearance to reflect the other gender, or (if they're older than x age) go into therapy and learn to manage the dysphoria.

Ignoring the troll, I'd argue there are four genders: male, female, hermaphrodite, and androgynous. I believe this is sufficient to cover all possibilities without going into retard/imaginary territory.

male/female are obvious, having characteristics of a male or female respectively.
herm would be having characteristics of both, like a pre-op transsexual.
androgynous would be having few characteristics of either: no boobs, light muscle, somewhat feminine face.

Hermaphrodite might be a little redundant. Androgynous would also account for people who have been neutered.
>>
>>6345262
I'd argue that a chemically feminized man and a chemically masculinized woman are sufficiently distinct as to be two different genders. An MtF is not M or F nor FtM.
