>>17116594>this doesn't really explain much. you're just telling me what they are not.well it's kind of a weird question, sorry, dunno what exactly i'm supposed to say?
>what does that mean?characteristics typically associated with men, in this context it refers to physical characteristics
things like, broad shoulders, deep voice, tall, being strong, etc
>but what about the fact that a the connective tissue in woman's skin is different from that of a man? That has to mean something right?possibly? doesnt really make much of a difference to me though, tranners and cis women are not identical, i'm quite fine with that, i transitioned to be mtf, not to be a cis woman
>Yes, because they are not women.cis women wouldnt need to go through menopause either if they took biodentical hormones, but hey, their choice
>so you're saying that gender is inherently tied to sex?it's obviously true in a descriptive sense, people subconsciously register biological characteristics and act on them regardless of social labels, it's why women subconsciously trust effeminate fags more than other men, or why effeminate fags get teased by men
i'm using sex more broadly than reproductive anatomy or chromosomes, though, i mean a wide variety of gendered physical characteristics
>So are you saying that you are in fact still a man but just taking estrogen?i dont really think in those terms
but i wouldnt really call myself a man though, i was only ever a boy at most, i never developed the physical characteristics i would associate with being a man
to me, woman, man, etc are just abstractions for more complex trends, the stuff that matters is what is underneath
