Oh, have you spoken to many intersex people?
Went to high school with one.
Neither are most trans people.
Wrong again.

No, it wasn't. Gender wasn't a word that was used to refer to people.
Yes it was.
Before the 1950s 'gender' was used as a synonym for sex exclusively because 'sex' was also used as a synonym for intercourse.
For conservative women 'sex' was an icky word back then.
You mean once people who were trying to understand people who would now be called transgender figured out how to describe the phenomenon.
No, I don't.
It was to confuse.
Which is what the mentally ill are.
And you've taken the extreme right-wing side on every issue. What's your point? I'm generally pretty left-wing in most of my views.
Not that you actually know what that means.
And besides the huge intellectual gulf between us, that's the biggest problem with trying to have a conversation with you.
You are completely politically illiterate but you don't even realize it.
Which is funny because the right-wing used to be left-wing and the left-wing used to be right-wing.
20 years ago the left was anti-war, warning of big pharma and corporations, and much more willing to agree with the right on illegal immigration.
What happened?
The right learned from their mistakes.
We learned the Iraq and Afghanistan wars were bullshit and we were manipulated into supporting it by the military industrial complex through the media.
We've figured out that 'holy shit, the left was correct about big pharma and corporations' through how they've been working hand-in-hand with the federal government for decades.
Mostly through the freedom of information via the internet, because the MSM certainly didn't cover it.
Now the question is how the hell did the left-wing become right-wing on those subjects?
Probably because you've been brainwashed to hate the right-wing figureheads like Trump.
So much so you're cheering for wars because Trump is against them.
You're in favor of government bloat and wasteful spending because Trump is against them.
You're cheering on Big Pharma because Trump said Americans should be getting the same deals on pharmaceuticals other countries are getting.
Your side is cheering on the Mexican cartels because Trump is threatening to hunt them down.
Think about that.
That's because you aren't very smart so everything you don't understand sounds the same to you.
Out of curiosity, do you watch much MSNBC? Because you seem to know a lot about what they say on there.
I honestly don't even know what their positions are on most things. I just assume it's standard corporate Democrat bullshit.
I know what they say on there because clips of them are regularly punchlines on the news sources I do listen to.
And no, the 'standard corporate democrat bullshit' is CNN.
'Batshit leftist insanity' is MSNBC.
