What does that mean? What were you born as, what allows or motivates you to think you should have a vagina or penis. If it isn’t about genitalia do you want to conform to societal standards better? I’ll never understand how a man can tell me I can’t define a woman, then go turn himself into what I literally defined as a woman, and call himself a woman, while also only being a woman because he chose too, but yet he chose to be feminine. Like if you’re born with a penis, but want to put a dress on why don’t you. The Trans community suggest men can wear dresses, yet every man wearing a dress wants to be a woman? My best assertion is an ego problem, which most Americans have.

(Just to be clear, i have nothing against trans people)

This was my confusion with being trans, if a person of any gender/sex is allowed to dress and act the way they want, why is there a desire to be the other gender? Like if a white kid was adopted by or grew up in a black community and identifies/associates with black culture, the kid doesn't go "hey I wish I was black, im gonna take melanin to appear like how i identify" he just acknowledges that he's white and has black culture. And please enlighten me on the differences, but I dont see why trans-raciality is so 'taboo' and 'racist' if trans people are valid.

So, black has to do with culture and heritage, it can be enough for people who were exposed to a culture who are not of that heritage to be considered honorary members of that heritage. There is no heritage element in gender identity, gender identity, or rather gender dysphoria, has to do with how the brain processes how your body should be in a gendered context, transition is a thing because it is proven to be more affective and safer to conform the body to what the brain insists than to convince the brain it is what the body insists.

Some men just like feminine things others are just women stuck in a man’s body. Why people say you can’t define a woman but then become your definition of one, to me it’s because gender is kind of subjective and the only real part of a definition for any gender is if they feel like they are that gender beyond that it’s just a subjective presentation of said gender. And I was born a boy and I am ok with having a penis but that’s about the masculine traits I have that I’m comfortable with yet and I don’t much feel like a woman or at least my interpretation of me as woman would be like. Tldr gender is really just a set of vibes that some people can’t vibe with on a fundamental level (myself included obviously)
