sure. this whole thread is so odd—yes, gender is a societal construct, but instead of exploring how different societies construct it, or why it's constructed like this, you seem to be unequivocally buying in to the current model. do you usually do that?

I can't not. It occurs subconsciously for me at the level of identifier; I can't force myself to see a tree as a house no matter how good your argument is. I am happy to consciously accept everything else I can around this though!

If they pass as a guy then I would love for us to get to a point where I can be honest that they read to me as male, yes.

You're allowed to view me however you want, and I'm not going to be mad at you for viewing me in a way I don't view myself. I will fight for the freedom for you to be honest to your own perception of me, even if that perception is that I'm an idiot.

Like I said; I frequently say positive things about trans people, that we need to treat them with respect, protect them from hate crimes, make sure they have their rights respected. I don't need to agree with trans people to argue we should let them live how they want to.
