You'd be surprised how many people ask me about my crotch. It's a lot. I have had people ask me which "parts" I have, how they look, what I plan to do with them. I don't run around with a sign that says "ask me about my crotch," but as soon as I bring up my gender identity to certain people, all of a sudden it appears on the discussion table like a highly inappropriate Seamless order. Yes, even in New York. Yes, even among seemingly "progressive" people. And it stems from the fact that most people you meet simply do not know much about non-binary gender identities. It usually goes like this:

No, women are not allowed outside the home without a male relative escorting them.
“With trans visibility increasing more quickly than ever, non-binary gender identity is coming into focus too.”
Translation: they’re having to try harder and harder to induce mental whiplash in those of us who don’t give a sh!t about their preferred pronouns—or their junk.
There’s no such thing as gender identity. Just like there’s no such thing as transgender.
There is male and female. Some may be seriously mentally/emotionally/spiritually ill, but they’re still just male or female. It’s their heads that need help, not their genitals.
BTW, it’s really impressive (not) the lengths to which these individuals go to **explain** things— as if the rest of us are the ones who are confused.
There is male and female.”
I agree. There is only male and female.
But there are people who are very confused.
Freepers heads up...
Some new trend my wise gnomes tells me about. They refer to themselves as "we" ( and maybe one other(?)) and it is not Mr., Ms., or Mrs. it is "Mx"... More insanity we have to deal with, on top of which bathroom to use, or stay away from the one they are using. Beam me up Scotty, we just snapped the bow line and the rest of the lines have been removed. No emphasis on the classics, Judea-Christian ethos, western Civ, and un-common sense have us in a state of flux...
It's pretty rare but there are some medical conditions where an XY individual is to all outward appearances a normal or even a very attractive woman, to the extent that even a doctor would not know anything was wrong until they ran some tests.
I think Bruce is pulling a fast one and laughing all the way to the bank.
Personally I don’t care what people think they are or not...what is missing from all these tales, is the fact that by declaring they are neither or the other, they are themselves buying into the stereotypes of what males and females are supposed to be, much of what is socially conditioned behavior and can vary by culture across the globe. I am not speaking about biological conditions, as biology cannot be changed.
Look at it’s breasts. On tranny “females”, they are so obviously implants. You can see the whole outline of their implants. Guess that’s what happens when a man inserts crap in their chests.
If people are asking how his crotch looks, he’s had a loffitoffame.
For exceptional conditions, an exceptional standard can be used. For the other 99.9% of the population, the X-Y chromosome thing works.
Women don’t drop their pants in a women’s restroom, unless they’re behind the closed door of a latrine. Well, I suppose they could if they wanted to, but I’ve NEVER seen it,
Turns out it’s name is Samantha, and she’s entirely a she.
no im saying a man claiming to be a woman could do this in a woman’s bathroom and not be prosecuted now under deblasio’s asinine ‘no discrimination’ nonsense-
"Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is when a person who is genetically male (who has one X and one Y chromosome) is resistant to male hormones (called androgens). As a result, the person has some or all of the physical traits of a woman, but the genetic makeup of a man."
I somehow think that the confused and proud of it crowd would not like being told to use facilities marked by an icon of a steaming turd.
.... Let’s do it!
Individuals with partial or complete AIS are not *female* in any meaningful biological sense:
” ...affected individuals have normal testes with normal production of testosterone and normal conversion to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which differentiates this condition from 5-alpha reductase deficiency. Because the testes produce normal amounts of müllerian-inhibiting factor (MIF), also known as müllerian-inhibiting substance (MIS) or anti-müllerian hormone/factor (AMH/AMF), affected individuals do not have fallopian tubes, a uterus, or a proximal (upper) vagina.”
