    I have learned that gender identity is an internal experience and can mean different things to different people, why then is there such a thing as identifying as something, if the definition is so broad that it ultimately means nothing? Whats the point of saying I identify as a woman, if that term explains nothing to the person you're talking to? Genuine question.

    Agender here and I just want to say no disrespect but technically this video didn't actually answer the question. I understand a lot of transphobes use the question, "What is a woman?" in bad faith in order to mock the queer community or whatever, so in no way do I want to associate with them. But nevertheless, as someone with no gender preference, what does it mean when someone says they are a woman? Or man, or non-binary, or bi-gendered? What is it that a person is identifying as? And also, can you define a woman without using the word woman in the definition? Thanks

    • @chilenapromedioRU
      @chilenapromedioRU Год назад +1

      As a fellow agender, who happens to have born a woman, it's simple: Woman = Adult human female.
      This video lacks the most important information: Gender Identity was a theory created by Dr. John Money (infamous for the horrible Reimer case) who believed in "gender" (masculine/feminine) as nurture over nature. Well, he was terribly wrong.
      So a trans woman is basically an adult human who wasn't developed in utero as a female (we develop our primary sex characteristics in utero), but self-identifies her "gender identity" as feminine.

    • @28lester
      @28lester Год назад +2

      Yes, I have the same questions. There is an inconsistence here. If you identify as a woman, then it must mean something specific, but the video states that it can mean anything to anyone, if that's the case then it is meaningless.

      You can't really define gender, but each person uses words that suit them based on how and where they grew up, so a woman can literally mean anything, depending on how the person uses it and how they feel it suits them. And really no one can tell you what their gender is, the same as we can't define love, it's more like how you feel. So to me it's pointless to ask what a woman is, it's the same as you would never ask someone: who you are! because they'll simply answer I'm me, they're not gonna give you a philosophical or scientific answer

    ‘A personal sense of having a particular gender’ just doesn’t make sense to me. I hear trans people say it’s how they feel, but what does this feeling feel like? How do I identify this feeling in myself?

    • @zxidenbel7000
      @zxidenbel7000 2 года назад +3

      It's rather simple, actually. To experience gender identity, try looking in a mirror and asking yourself, "Am I a boy/girl?" After that, ask yourself whether you would still be a boy/girl if nobody had ever told you that you were. If you give another reason, such as, "I am a boy/girl because I have certain biological traits," ask yourself if you would still be a boy/girl if you lost those traits in an injury. Eventually, you'll probably come to the conclusion that you just are a boy/girl, because there's something so fundamental about it that we know who we are without any reason at all.

    IOW, gender is subjectively defined, on your worldview. But that would make misgendering impossible. If there is no objective definition for "gender", "man", "woman", etc. then no one can ever be correct/incorrect while using these terms. Ironically, it's only those of us who *reject* modern gender theory who can accuse someone of misgendering them in a coherent way.
    You claim that sex and gender are two different things, but we've known them to be one and the same for a long time now. It's the very reason why the roles we're expected to play solely based on our biological sex are called "gender roles" to begin with.

  • @naukumaija7056
    @naukumaija7056 3 года назад +19

    The thing is, none of these things are measurable. Whatever might be considered point x on the "gender spectrum" for one person, might feel more like point y. Both two people feel the same way about how masculine/feminine/male/female/man/woman they are, but because all of these ideas are very subjective and introspective, they don't actually mean anything. Sex, on the other hand, is measurable, very much so.
    I'm not a woman because I somehow feel especially in tune with the idea of "womanhood" (whatever that might mean to any of us, again, not measurable), I'm a woman because my sex is female. For most ppl that you classify as "cis", this is the crux of it. Not some especially strong alignment or affinity with the idea of womanhoo/being a woman/female/etc.

      Your sex is female cause of a bunch of socially decided arbitrary standards. It's not set in stone. Also, not every cis woman actually hits those arbitrary standards of their assigned sex.

    Let me get this straight… Customarily, we’ve used man and woman to define two sets of people: the penis and vagina people, respectively. Uncommonly, there are naturally occurring deformities that make it difficult to identify one or the other, so we’ve used intersex or hermaphrodite or etc. Nowadays, because we are becoming more tolerant of everyone’s feelings, everyone gets a chance to say who they feel they are and have that identity validated. “I feel like a man,” or “I was assigned male at birth, but that doesn’t align with my gender identity.” So now… Whatever you say in relation to gender expression… is fair game? “Weekdays, I feel 100% male until the weekend when my hybrid female/non-binary self takes the reins.” But can someone explain the POINT of all this gender expression fascination aside from trendy narcissism? Because I’ve listened over and over to the explanations from the other side and I can probably safely say that all this boils down to pure self-obsession. Calling yourself the opposite sex or agender or whatever is just a rebellion against the shackles of “conformity.” You don’t like the label given to you, so you seek out a new one or create your own. Okay. But the very harsh reality is that your new identity will never be accepted as truth by everyone because you cannot force compliance, as I’m sure you’re well aware. You want to be unique and special, but guess what? Generally, people like structure. They like having two simple names for the sexes. No one wants to be burdened with learning your gender identity because no one really cares about your made up gender. They know penis makes the sperm and baby comes out the vagina and they are fine with that. You’ll pound your fists against the wall that is sexual dimorphism until they’re riddled with blood and you’ll have nothing to show for it. Sure, you’ll gain some converts to your religion but it has no legs to stand on. It’s a mental health crisis, and no one wants to admit it.

      If you're comfortable, you can politely say something like "Hey, I think my friend uses they/them pronouns," or "Hey, my friend likes to be called they/them" and still not come off as too aggressive. It's usually best to do it in the moment, right after someone has used the wrong pronouns, but you can always find the person afterwards and talk to them one-on-one about it.
      Landing on they/them really hard in your own speaking can come across as passive aggressive and be a little off putting. I think it's better to directly address the issue when it happens.

      Non-binary Is someone that has a gender outside of the "male-female" binary concept of gender. They can either identify partially with one of those 2 or identify as something else entirely.
      Agender means having no gender at all or a neutral gender. It's considered a Non-binary gender identity, but It's kind of Its own thing.
      Gendervoid Is sometimes compared to Agender (and Is even used interchangeably with agender) but It doesn't mean the exact same thing. A Gendervoid person feels like there's a void where their gender should be or that their gender resembles a void In some way.

      A woman is simply any adult person, cisgender or transgender, that identifies as female, regardless of sexual orientation. Sex assigned at birth, gender expression, romantic orientation, and sexual orientation do not affect the validity of a person's womanhood.

    Is it acceptable to call someone by their first someone in order to sidestep the use of pronouns?

    • @lazdahuman
      @lazdahuman 2 года назад

      Depends on the context. If the person wants to hide their pronouns without being misgendered (perhaps they are in the closet because of their parents), using their name to replace their pronouns is acceptable. In the case the person uses no pronouns (which is very rare), nouns are the only acceptable way of referring to that person, so the person's name is fair game. If the person has pronouns and doesn't want to hide them, it would, in most cases, not be acceptable to do it (without consent).
      P.S. - If you need a refresher, here are some examples of pronouns:
      he/him - she/her - they/them - xe/xem - I/me - who/whom

      Agreed. It is optional to learn about a few things here, especially if you haven't come across a person of a certain identity yet. Just be aware that if you meet someone who is, say, xenogender, you should read up on the topic before confronting them about their gender.

    Still confused on what an internal perception of self to either male or female means. It seems you are presenting gender stereotypes as the foundation of such an identity. But what if I reject such, and reject that others should form an identity around such toxic ideas? Why should I support regressive thinking? And I oppose the idea that such group terms of pronouns can or should convey one's complex and unique gender identity. I also think it's incorrect to assume the gender identity of the vast majority of people to proclaim them as cisgender. Don't conflate gender identity with expression or preference of pronouns as it's unclear if they are attempting to convey their gender identity or their sex. As you've stated, two completely different things. So please recognize them as such.

    The thing I don't get about this is people want to be identified by something that is essentially private. Your gender is pretty much defining your sexual preferences whether you enjoy sex with women or men or maybe both. It's a bit self centered to want people to accept you based on that. We are spending way too much time trying to explain something that's obviously indefinable based on the fact that when you think you've gotten the definition someone comes up with another term hence the +. Let's all accept the fact that everyone is unique and leave it at that. If I call you a man and you feel like a woman what difference does it make in the greater scheme of things

Because you clearly didn't give the basic explanation of what is a man or a woman. I honestly thought it just people feel themselves uncomfortable in their own body. But than again you said that changing penis for vagina and getting boobs is not the main agenda. Than what? Do they hear a girly voice in their head when thinking? Or they want to give birth suddenly? Because according to your video transpeople don't have to go through a surgery to make everybody around to except their gender. Excuse me, but I can't call a 6 pack bearded human with a penis a woman. So help.

      Many trans people have ‘Gender dysphoria’. A sense of disconnect between there body and there brain. Some people say it’s like phantom limb syndrome.
