Are You Male/Female?

[_carmi]

female

 

[Steph]

[yak pac fatal]

we need more females on this board

 

[Pacaveli-T]

as the sign near my name says female although at times i think more like a male last time i cheacked i was a female.

 

[Amara]

Male.

If you seriously want to know this ratio - implied by the 'be honest' comment - then why did you give other options?

Seems like there are two questions.

One biological, the other the socialised gender construct....

I am a female. No doubt about it. But gender is so superficial now, even if I am "in touch with masculinity" it doesnt change the fact that the answer to the question is female, not "other" - whats with that?

sad, isn't it? i blame psychologists.. just b/c a boy likes to play with barbies when he was young doesn't mean that he's really a woman in a man's body and should get a sex change.. bastards should just smack the kids up the heads and tell them to go jack off like the rest of the male population

What I think Yeshua is trying to get at is that we are born with a specific gender (which is a physical thing); and psychologically we have a choice whether stick with that or choose to identify ourselves as belonging to the other sex (eg Nadia, Big Brother). You could think of 'Other' as 'Transgender'.

We aren't born with a gender - we are born with a sex. Gender is learned by socialisation.

Is it made of organic tissue? If so, is it attached to your body?

Is it attached to your head? I know what that tells me.



(Had to get you back for comparing me to a dog, lol).

We aren't born with a gender - we are born with a sex. Gender is learned by socialisation.

"2 types of gender are distinguished in linguistics --- natural gender, where items refer to the sex of real world entities, and grammatical gender, which has nothing to do with sex, but which signals grammatical relationships between words in a sentence and which is shown eg by the form of the article or the noun."


I am refering to the former definition.
