Saying that trans people only really count as their correct gender if they're physically transitioning is just a slightly broader version of biological gender essentialism.
@InspectorCaracal there is a lot to unpack here. 🤔 It's a bit chicken and egg isn't it?
@vease Saying that someone's gender identity is only legitimate if their body physically matches that gender is a form of biological gender essentialism, that's all I was saying.
@InspectorCaracal if you say so. I don't really know TBH.
Are you saying if someone's essence (or women's form - as Pluto would say, as I've only read old philosophy) is feminine. It shouldn't matter what body that essence is contained in?
So it would make no sense to say they are not feminine essence of they did not have a feminine body?
@vease @InspectorCaracal Not entirely sure what Mickey Mouse's dog's opinion has to do with anything
@vease @troubleMoney Don't you know, Pluto isn't a planet any more. 😉
@InspectorCaracal @troubleMoney your shitting me. I'm so out the loop.
@troubleMoney @InspectorCaracal Mickey kept a planet as a dog?
