Vent

Anyone can vent here

But I gotta tell someone this my friend and I were discussing and she named my other friend who has switched schools and she said his old name and I was just saying the right because she’s trans so it’s he/him but I said that and she got like mad but not mad like there’s only 2 gens and I agreed physically there’s 2 gens but mentally there are more and she got a bit upset and was like no it’s only 2 gens and I repeated that there’s physical there’s 2 but mentally there’s more then she was so rude and like agains lgbtq just for the fact that it is so physical there’s 2 but mentally you can feel like you’re the other or something else and she told me that she would send them to a mental hospital because of it 😭

there are 2 sexes, not genders
also why would she say there are only 2? you were discussing only about the 2 main ones so no need to bring other ones

[tall mantle]

I meant sexes, sorry, English is not my best language. She was like she wanted the old times back when there were only "2 genders," which there aren't; there are lots more, and that LGBTQ is wrong. I only agreed with her on 1 thing: there are two sexualities, women and men, in how we're born, but I don't agree with the rest of what she said.

theres not 2 sexes because of intersex people so...

[tall mantle]

I meant like when were born to be there only 2 in that form in physical form

[neat maple]

yes some people are born with both genitals or xxy or just x chromosones

[crisp rivet]

that's a condition I think

and not a sex

probably because of the rarity

[neat maple]

but it still results in a different sex

[tall mantle]

Physical form there's 2 but otherwise it's mentally

[neat maple]

its as rare as having red hair so it isnt that rare

[neat maple]

search up intersex (its literally physical what)

[tall mantle]

Ok ok so there's 3 sexses?

[crisp rivet]

well let's then call every genetic mutation a race

[neat maple]

*sexes

[crisp rivet]

even better, let's call every genetically possible mutation a race

[neat maple]

sex isnt a race tho

so nah

[crisp rivet]

it's a similarly working thing

[tall mantle]

Ok, but I just wanted to explain to her that physically there are 2 sexualities: women and men (including intersex), but that doesn't mean you feel like you belong; you may feel like the opposite or something else.

........
But I can't believe what she said what mental hospital that's just cruel

[vale bison]

No, intersex refers to a wide array of sex conditions such as but not limited to being born with mixed traits, having hormonal imbalances, mixed chromosomes, etc. There are 2 sexes and intersex counts as variations of male and female. /info

Yes, this is horribly cruel. I’m sorry you have to deal with this person. You don’t deserve to!!
