“Trans men are men because they have male brains, trans women are women because they have female brains” shut up, brain sex has been debunked

“See, my theory isn’t exclusionist towards nonbinary people because those people have intersex brains” shut up, brain sex has been debunked, and also that’s not what intersex means

“I used to be a transphobe, but now I learned that transgender people have brains that match the sex they’re transitioning to” oh wow. so you’re saying that you used to believe there has to be strict biological differences between genders, but now you believe that there has to be strict biological differences between genders? fascinating, tell me more

Also the implication by brain sex proponents that genderfluidity isn’t real. Because “your brain can’t switch between having a male structure and having a female structure”. Oh, and that xenogenders aren’t real because “your brain sex can’t be ‘cupcake’”

Brain sex proponents are wild to me. And when you show them the studies showing that there aren’t measurable differences in the brains of people with different genders and that early studies that found otherwise had too small a sample size, they’re like “but… but… that’s my emotional support bioessentialism!! 🥺”

This is varsexism and transphobia, and especially intersexist, transsexist, and exorsexist.

First of all - All studies on these "brain differences" show that the difference between mulleripathian and wolffipathian [link] brains is super small and inconclusive, and the differences likely actually develop due to how different people are treated based on gender roles (ie; how people raised as "sons" often are given less physical affection), rather than an actual natural biological development.

Second of all - These studies are done to such specific strict groups of people, that they do not reflect the generalized population in the slightest.

Third of all - Sex =/= gender. What about cisgender transsex people? What about transgender cissex people? Not everyone's sex and gender "align."

Fourth of all - Conflating intersex [link] with non-binary plays into the stereotypes that intersex people cannot be men or women. Yes, non-binary intersex people exist, and yes, non-binary people with "in-between" genders exist, but intersex people are not inherently non-binary, nor does being intersex or non-binary always mean "in-between."

Fifth of all - "Brain intersex" is a real thing, just not in the way these people think. It's called Secondary Hypogonadism/Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism, which is when the brain isn’t sending as many signals as it typically would to the gonads (or related organs) to create sex hormones. The "brain intersex" narrative is intersexist both because it treats sex and gender as the same, and non-binary and intersex as the same, but also because it leads people to exclude people who are actually intersex because of their brain.

Like what’s wrong with people. And sometimes it’s from my own community. Btw this is exorsexism because I’m nonbinary spec (I identify as genderfluidflux) and due to that and my sexuality not being fluid surprisingly, (I’m cinthean) people often invalidate me when I am a vincian woman, or a she/her gay, or any gender that may contradict being gay. But I don’t feel like changing my sexuality or identity as straight simply because my experience will never be straight I am non-binary still, I’m just a woman right now who happens to be gay.

Pride Flag Boba part 6!!!

order of flags: ambonec, gaybian, multisexual, multigender, oriented aroace, neutrois, genderfluidflux, aplatonic, aroallo

Circuafluid — uncertain, ambiguous circuagender (link) related to being genderfluid, something approximately, roughly genderfluid, and neither; fluid between circuans

Circuaflux — uncertain, ambiguous gender related to being genderflux, something approximately, roughly genderflux, and neither; circuan that fluctuates in intensity

Circuafluix — uncertain, ambiguous gender related to being fluidflux, something approximately, roughly fluidflux, and neither; circuan that is fluid & fluctuates in intensity. can also be called circuafluidflux

[image id: three flags with 7 wavy stripes & a swirl in the center with a down-facing arrow below and intersecting it. the first is dark purple, medium warm purple, light pink, pale tan, medium blue, medium cool-purple, and dark blue with a warm deep purple symbol. the second is a three-stripe dark to light pink gradient, pale yellow, and a three-stripe light to dark blue gradient with a medium-dark blue symbol. the third is deep purple, medium warm purple, light blue, white, medium yellow, medium pink, and deep red with a deeper red symbol. end id.]

I feel so disconnected from gender right now

your flag designs are amazing :D

winged lynx — genderfluidflux

[IMAGE ID: three rectangular flags with nine evenly-sized stripes each. all of them have these top five stripes: deep purple, nearly-black purple, medium red, gold, and warm brown. the warm brown stripe has points extending into the gold stripe. the first flag's bottom four stripes are as follows: warm pink, neon pink-purple, dark blue, and black. the second flag's bottom four stripes are as follows: dull yellow, warm blue, dull purple, and hot pink. the third flag's bottom four stripes are as follows: light grey, light yellow, light blue, and warm pink.
