@MigGui: lol biology is a branch of science. A male is of or denoting the sex that produces small, typically motile gametes, especially spermatozoa, with which a female may be fertilized or inseminated to produce offspring. Your doctors/words cannot change that fact and this has nothing to do with culture or religion.
@dts15: Lifes unfair we get it. Some males want to be females, and females want to be males. I mean I want to be a transformer but that doesn't change the reality that I was born a human male. At this current time with our given technology, what defines males and females cannot be changed. A female cannot get someone pregnant and a male cannot get pregnant. A male cannot have working ovaries and a female cannot have working testicles. These are facts that cannot be changed at the current time.
Even if you identify as a father or a male and you get pregnant and have a child, you are still a mother. Being a male or female is not an opinion.. its based on facts and biology. People should accept who they are or at least not expect everyone else to conform to their fantasies and get upset when people call them by their proper gender. Again, I don't care what anyone does in the personal life, but when I'm reading a professional article the proper terminology should be used or else you will confuse your readers.
@rios_0th: I understand this but again there is a basis for reality that has been established to help us navigate the world properly. Imagine someone breaks into your home and steals your things. An officer ask questions. You tell him "they/them broke in my home!". He would then ask "how many were there?". He ask were they male or female, you say "neither". He ask "were they black or white" and you say "they identify as a cat". Do you see how things start breaking down here? reality starts breaking down and things become confusing. It helps neither the officer or yourself when you base things in fantasy.
@jedijax: flamebait? its called a discussion that is relevant to the topic at hand. My logic/beliefs doesn't align with yours so I must be trolling. I respect this moderator (especially since he didn't silence me like most moderators would) and would never harass him or anyone for their beliefs. But at the same time I'm gonna use the proper terminology and expect that when reading professional articles online.
@hallenbeck77: Peoples feelings on scientific facts don't change reality. The reality is you are either born male or female. That is a scientific fact. If you refuse to acknowledge that you are just living a fantasy. And that is ok for one to do but we don't have to acknowledge or respect that fantasy especially when it can cause confusion for those based in reality.
@hallenbeck77: thats not a real thing though. Just because I identify as an cat doesn't mean everyone should respect that and call me a cat. There is only male and female biologically and that is all there is to it.
