Done this in AS politics

Gender vs Sex/nature vs nuture

Pretty interesting tbf

Been loads of studies and experiments

Can't remember the country but one in particular raised a boy as a girl or the other way around for a social experiment. Genuinely grew up thinking they was what they were told. Pretty sure they killed themselves when they grew up and found oh they was lied to etc

You'd think it would be interesting especially for those citing sexualisation by the media and basing it on science and nature as a reason for monogamy not being real etc

I think that there are things society assigns to gender that are constructs

And it makes people think they are something else

Like clothes. U get these young children sayin i jus love wearing dresses then everyone tellin him u must be a girl inside

Or she was always such a tomboy it makes sense she knew she was a boy

Theres things that only men can do and things only women can do. Then theres a load in the middle an i think trannies get confused an indulged on the stuff in the middle

I think society is at fault to a degree for being so stringent on what is for men an what is for women considering these things change over time and throughout the world

In all the documentaries ive never heard anyone ask a tranny what it feels like to be a woman or vice versa. How can they even know. They think they kno based on societal constructs but they have no idea

I think some are confusing gender with sex

 

People should read

What's the difference

 

 

That wasn't aimed at you btw

sex is biological, it is in no way a social construct

 

gender, on the other hand, is up for debate;

 

noun

 

 

 

  1. 1.
    the state of being male or female (typically used with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones).

Also most of you who criticise feminism don't understand the first thing about the movement, their goals or beliefs.

The fact their are liberal, radical, socialist, marxist and conservative feminists should give that away.

You lot only seem to talk about social media feminists

Men are not the enemy, but the fellow victims. The real enemy is women's denigration of themselves.

Im not a feminist per se but i need women to large up themselves. And yes to that end i agree with the statement. If women don't know their true value then men are lost also since we are the bringers of life and providers of nurture

Any cultures outside the west whether sex and gender are not consistent as we see it? Are you talking about matriarchal societies?

If we're seprating the two, then imo one must beget the other.

As for feminism, I want to live in a world where my daughter has the same opportunities as my son. But this is shit right here.....
