    What would you call them?

    If you got a penis you definitely are not a woman, where is the vagina?

    Call them a 'he-she' or what?

    I like the "don't be an (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)" rule when it comes to people living their lives in a manner that does not affect me.

    If someone wishes to be addressed using certain gender specific pronouns, I opt to not be an (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) and simply respect their life experience in the manner they see fit.

    I have never understood the obsession folks have with such pronouns, with the whole "they have penis so I must be as offensive as possible and call them a he even when they wish to be referred to as a she because I have a narrow view of the world " thing

    I'm not going to be the one to inspect the crotch.

    Unless you’re in a position to know whether a person has a penis or vagina, why do you care what they want to be called?

    What would science call the subject after a DNA analysis?

    "he" and "she" are not scientific terms.

    How are you harmed by calling this person "she?"

    whether a person walks up right on two feet or crawls around on all fours, pee on fire hydrants, eats out of a bowl on the floor, why do you care if he wants to be called a dog?

    he or she is a designation of ones sex and science determines sex by ones DNA ones sex isn't a social construct and if you insist it is then ones race, ones age, hell ones species then can be argued as a social construct

    doesn't hurt me but I refuse to participate in ones fantasies ones charade

    Hmmm...my boat is a "she." My truck is a "he." Do you suppose someone did a DNA test on my boat?

    America is referred to as her ("stand beside her..."). What gender is America?

    If you are not harmed, why do harm in return?

    It's becoming ludicrous. Bordering on mental illness.

    people refer to objects, things as a sex to elevate the status of that object to show they care about that object not because they actually believe it is alive and has a sex unlike Transgenders
    If I call my car a she I won't get all upset and offended if some one else doesn't

    this is very interesting if you have not seen, gender is not as cut and dry as some think

    I don't deluge in science fantasy other then for its entertainment value and that is what that vid is all about science fantasy I think their for I am kind of nonsense
    I believe in quantified tangible evidence a male is a male because the tangible DNA evidence says so a female is a female because tangible DNA evidence says so
    same as a dog is a dog because the DNA says it is

    Can I say I'm 13 years old even if time Ive been alive says different? or can time/age be considered a social construct I feel 13 years old I want to be 13 years old there for I am ?

    DNA actually doesn't define sex, anatomy does. It most certainly isn't a social construct.

    Why would I? It’d be a curiosity but if their own identity isn’t having any impact on me (which it generally wouldn’t), I wouldn’t especially care either way.

    Everyone is born as either XX or XY so the answer is very simple. :)

    No, it is mental illness.

    If you look down and see a penis, that is the reality of your biology.

    If your brain does not perceive that reality, the problem is in the mind.

    We call people who think they're dragons or ruler of the universe mentally ill, being transgender is no different.

    Now I know that will make some angry, but let me say I don't care if a grown person wants to make those decisions for themselves. What I have a problem with is that this ideology is being pushed on pre-pubescent kids that are subjected to surgery and hormonal treatment when they are too young to have any idea what is going on.

    I also have a problem being expected to conform to their mental illness, especially in a legally liable way. That is the true insanity.

    You want to lop it off? Fine. Just don't expect me to try and figure out what you are or want to be called.

    Give the dude an ax. Then he can be the chick he always wanted to be. Problem solved.
