Dinosaurs are, in fact, cool.

Trans men are still men!

correct

Agreed.

The only time I think I've seen them assume someone was a trans man was when it was actually a trans woman.

yeah, i actually kinda want a transphobe to make that mistake with me, would be funny and maybe give some euphoria

it says a lot ab how underrepresented trans men are in the media =(

@@chewysocks Yeah, agreed :(

But why is that the case. Are trans women significantly more common then trans men. Whats the reason for thinking they are all women

I think it's similar to how represented gay men are in the media compared to lesbians. And how the female reproductive system and female sexuality has always been comparatively ignored by the media (we didn't have an accurate map of the internal structure of the clitoris until 1981, but male parts have been known by medical science intimately for centuries, that's not even starting on non-sexual stuff like the misdiagnosis of female heart attacks because the male model is always expected and they present a bit differently) If something affects AMAB people, it gets pushed. HARD. If something affects AFAB people, it mostly gets ignored.

That is an excellent rebuttal and I would now like to know who this good lady is so that I may follow her as well. 🙂

Who?

I follow a cis male writer who put his pronouns in his fb bio etc, and while he isn't an activist or anything, he never hides his ally-ship. The amount of people who misgender him, because they assume anyone with pronouns in their bio MUST be trans, and therefor deserving of hate is absurd. I've gotten some of it too because rando's go creeping on my profile, see that I list my pronouns and assume I'm trans because of that, or because I explained the science on a video about intersex people. They can't wrap their heads around the idea that there are cis het people who are LGBTQ+ allies.

jokes on you, I already identify as a bird, and I have chromosomal evidence to back that up (ignore Jamie's "you probably don't know your chromosomes" speech at the end) /j (the joke being that whilst in (most) mammals (normally) XX (~homozygous) produces females and XY (~heterozygous) produces males, in birds and others ZW (~heterozygous) produces females and ZZ (~homozygous) produces males, thus, as a trans woman with (presumably) heterozygous sex chromosomes, I am a bird)

you had me in the first half, ngl

So the whole "stay at home mom whose life only revolves around her children" seems like something to aspire to, I suppose. There were similar things in the Nazi regime. Women who gave birth to a lot of children (I'm talking like 5 or something) got something like the Federal Cross of Merit for adding to the superior German race. And I think there were also other rewards when you fulfilled the binary roles. I think the whole "winning soccer mom" or "bake sale competitions" are a less extreme version of this.

I feel like maybe “Team Parent” or “Most Supportive” or something like that would work, but I feel like soccer mom has too many negative connotations.

I have a degree in linguistics and can confirm this is true! In linguistics there's no such thing as "correct" language in the first place. Like there was a point in English history where philosophers and such thought English wasn't good enough because it didn't have enough words and just started making some up (and we still use a lot of those words to this day!)

Over here in germany, there is this whole debate agoing on about gendered language (basically, we have male and female forms for many words, and now people are meant to just use the neutral/masculine version, then put an asterisk and then the female ending) and everyone is loosing their minds about how it's destroying our language. It's not. I have to say one thing though... It gives my mom a new excuse to misgender me on purpose, by clearly using the female form then pretending she was just using that gendered language... Tl;dr: In germany, people are arguing about gendered languge and my mom is full of sh*t

Actually.....research has found that a son's fetal cells migrate to the mother's brain snd remain there, and provide protection against Alzheimer's. True story!

Well, that's a new transition goal.

No, I dont think the blood mixes togeather, because that would be fatal for the mother and the baby. The whole purpose of the placenta is to stop the mixing from happening. And anyway chromosomes dont define a person's gender, it's the brain that does it.

Ki: "Fetal microchimerism and maternal health during and after pregnancy Keelin O'Donoghue, PhD MRCOG Fetal cells can be located in maternal tissues during and after pregnancy, and persist as microchimeric cells for decades in marrow and other organs. Although persistent fetal cells were first implicated in autoimmune disease, subsequent reports routinely found microchimeric cells in healthy tissues and in non-autoimmune disease. Parallel studies in animal and human pregnancy now suggest instead that microchimeric fetal cells play a role in the response to tissue injury. However, it is still not clear whether microchimeric fetal cells persisting in the mother are an incidental finding, are naturally pathogenic or act as reparative stem cells, and the environmental or biological stimuli that determine microchimeric cell fate are as yet undetermined. Future studies must also focus on investigating whether fetal cells create functional improvement in response to maternal injury and whether this response can be manipulated. The pregnancy-acquired low-grade chimeric state of women could have far-reaching implications, influencing recovery after injury or surgery, ageing, graft survival after transplantation, survival after cancer as well as deciding the protective effect of pregnancy against diseases later in life. Lifelong persistence of fetal cells in maternal tissues may even explain why women live longer than men."

This is fascinating as hell.

As I keep saying, the attacks on non-cis non-heteros is a redirection of their hatred of gay-men. They can't get away with attacking gay-men anymore, so they're looking for a new target, which is all trans and gender-nonbinary people. In their confusion, the bigots are unintentionally attacking aces. Because they don't understand the difference. I mean, these are people who think only cis-men and cis-women should exist and that the only valid form of sex is peen-in-vag in the missionary position, performed in the dark with the cis-woman on the bottom, thinking of England. Do we really think they have the brain cells to comprehend the difference between gay and trans, nevermind between gay, bi, pan, ace, trans, or nonbinary?

@@John_Weiss something about your description of sex just it annihilated me *edit for grammars sake*

I have Turner's ☺️

I'm a trans woman and I had fully accepted that I was XY because I have no physical signs of being intersex (or so I thought). Yet my endocrinologist has been unable to make that determination and it turns out and (I will try not to get blue) that I appear to have certain internal organs that aren't typically found in XY people. It's not functional or developed and it isn't accessible but it is there. This is still being diagnosed and I don't really understand the information fully but they said it might effect how receptive my body is to hrt. I have no idea if I will be classified as intersex but at the least it has been eye opening to how "biological sex" really isn't that simple.

I myself are an intersex person I was amab and appear male but I have xx chromosome pairing. I have found out that a part of the y chromosome that actually determines if you are born male can mutate onto the x chromosome and that could be passed on by your father. I think that may be what happened in my case.

Which test determines your chromosomes? I'm curious about getting it done, but I don't know what to ask for.

@@erinhaury5773 I think the easiest would be a chromosome analysis (aka genetic testing or karyotyping). It only takes a cheek swab or blood sample to do. Not sure your health care provider will do it though without any medical need for it. This kind of test often includes a full look at your entire genome though, so inherited diseases and risk factors might come up too. I'm not a doctor, so it's best to talk to a professional about this before you get into the testing.

I really want to give them a lecture on some advanced biology of chromosomes

@@franny5156 trans women? No Elvis for you.

"sex" doesn't exist. Who the heck cares about karyotype shape.

@@maleandfemaleareidentities3209 Uh, but, it does-? Biological sex is real, and it *is* important- But it doesn't take away from your gender or anything. Saying this as a trans person, it's important for doctors to know your biological sex because depending on what that is, different medical issues or doses of medicine is needed.

I agree with this to a point, but a lot of abnormalities in sex chromosomes (XXY- Klinefelter syndrome, X- Turner syndrome, or even XXX- tripe X syndrome to a lesser degree) do really impact the development of the individual. These can cause developmental delays and physical abnormalities (breast growth and infertility in men with Klinefelter syndrome, developmental issues with teeth and sexual organs as well as delayed puberty and infertility in women with Turner syndrome). I enjoyed this video and thought a lot of the points were really good, but I think the comment about sex chromosomes was probably a bit generalised.

They cry about how basic biology disproves trans people because basic biology is the only biology they know. We know advanced biology, and that it conforms the existence of trans people.

For anyone wondering I’m pretty sure the six sexual karyotypes OP is referring to are: 46,XX (dyadic AFAB) 46,XY (dyadic AMAB) 47,XXY (Klinefelter Syndrome, typically AMAB) 47,XXX (Triple X Syndrome, typically AFAB) 47,XYY (XYY Syndrome, typically AMAB) 45,X (Turner Syndrome, typically AFAB) Also ‘dyadic’ just means non-intersex. /gen /info

"It's my right to misgender u!" Ahaha, but it's also my right to introduce my foot to your shin, then, my friend :)

I always wonder if the transphobe would appreciate having their name be replaced with Poopenfarten on their tombstone. Since according to transphobes, referring to someone with the wrong name and pronouns is just fine and dandy free speech. And according to transphobes, people are silly snowflakes for wanting their identity to be respected. Hence, I propose replacing any transphobe's name with Poopenfarten or Glittershits.

@Cheddar Cheezit to threaten violence ? sounds like a male using any excuse to beat up women . same ole story. .

It hurt itself in its confusion…

Gender expression and roles is a societal construct, stuff like pink being for girls or whatever other crap, but gender itself IS real. As a trans man, I'd still want stuff like the ability to grow facial hair, a flat chest, and a penis even if I'd magically managed to be raised without society. I know this in the deepest core of my being. Even if I literally didn't know what a penis was for example I'd still know SOMETHING was missing.

"they use she/he/they pronouns, but they prefer they/them out of those" or something like that)

A very controlling lady in retrospect. I did ultimately have to cut her out, after asserting myself and accepting her enmity. The relationship is cordial but I have nothing nice to say. But that was after realizing that she would, hitherto, never truly adjust. I don’t know about your brother. I grew up conservative, so I would try and keep my worldview bubble safe from *the outside* before eventually being emotionally ready to accept that so much of what I was taught doesn’t line up with anything I would actually think. The world is complicated, but life isn’t, and accepting the former helps the latter. Whole ass people have whole ass lives and they don’t work on the same rules as every or really any other people. Just similar. Like someone with a short temper a.) probably has been screwed over a lot and b.) won’t view things the same way as someone who’s docile. But the short tempered and docile person both want to be treated well. I hope, regardless of what happens, it ends well. My saving grace was found family. Partially cause luck, partially just refusing to be so closed off as to avoid people who treat me well (a trap I had previously fallen into).

A Festivus for the rest of us

Io Saturnalia!

Fröhliche Weihnachten! Frohes Fest!

@@John_Weiss WOO MY GERMAN LESSONS ARE STARTING TO PAY OFF I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD THIS!!!

Sorry but I know someone who works for the police in the community and they've been to Pride parades with LBGT+ colleagues. Yes the plod have a way to go but I do get bored of the narrative they aren't trying. Also instuitions aren't monoliths any more than people are.

@@EmoBearRights many local departments are helpful and supportive. But it depends on the community.

@@EmoBearRights law enforcement is an institution that is systemically used to oppress and control indigenous people and people of colour/Black people, saying 'well some cops are nice' doesn't change the intended purpose and use of law enforcement. And I'm not sure how much they're trying if people on their ranks can keep k1lling Black people and instead of getting fired or prosecuted the norm is for them to get away with it or to be sent to a different department. The system itself is corrupt and actively enables abuse and harm, most cops do not speak against it because their purpose is to defend private property not actually value human beings. And no, cops shouldn't be at pride because they are known to either harm and abuse trans and queer POC or enable those who do by not speaking against it because the system does not allow them to.

i think we all do xD

Jamie for (internet) soccer dad of the year?

They want us to fuck so bad, yet shame us women for being "thots". I'm confused.

You're thinking too deep into it, it's literally because it has "sexual" in it, nothing more. These people don't actually think through or try to understand things before getting angry at them, it's just kneejerk rage at anybody different.

Okay Diogenes 😂😂😂😂😂😂 This is so funny

@Cian MacGana lmao she was literally being transphobic??? She's literally just another person the fact that she was my mother doesn't forgive that

I don't know what "cis" means. However, I do know that XX means woman. Which means that women are not men. Doesn't matter if you feel like it.

@@boiboi3736 Cis literally means not trans. It is a latin prefix, meaning on the same side as" In terms of gender, it means you are the same gender you were assigned at birth. And there are CIS men, with everything else that would qualify them (To you) as men, that have xx chromosomes. and there are CIS women, who have everything that (To you) would qualify them as women, and they have xy chromosomes. Chromosomes are not the only factor to gender, and they arent even the only factor to sex. so, kindly, shut up

@@boiboi3736 you didn’t read nor understand the comment, did you?

@@quinnnewman2618 I was referring to the last sentence. If you have XX chromosomes you are a female.

​@@boiboi3736there are cis men with xx, just like how there are cis women with xy. its called intersex, but transphobes usually arent educated on that topic because all ive seen in your arguments is "hur dur dur only male and female"
