God only made two. Male and female. Anything else is a product of man's ungodly mind.There exist only 3 genders.
Female, Male and intersex
Evidence?... Science!
I have been honest the entire time, but you think my honesty is mental illness and sickness. Yes, you should probably not say anything else about this.Thanks again for your honesty. I will say no more.
OK Thank you for that. Here is how I see things. My opinion. You either have 2 X chromosomes or 1 X and 1 Y. Matbe one person in a billion has a true medical condition where this is not true. I do not think that is you. If you have 1 X and one Y chromosome, you are a male. If you have 2 X's you are female. You can take hormones or have surgery but you cannot change that. If you are a male and you like to wear dresses and high heals, I have no problem with that. Or if you are female and wear "men's" clothing, I have no problem with that. My problem is that if you are male and tell people you are female, that is not true. You are a male who likes to wear female clothes and do female things. Same thing goes if you are female and tell people you are male. Nothing you can do will change your chromosomes and you are only lying to yourself and others if you tell them you are something you are not. I would have no problem being a friend to you if you were honest about yourself. I have had some contact with men who liked other men but they did not pretend to be women. I had no problem being around them. It is pretending to be something you are not that is the problem for me.

I am sure this subject is very complex and important for those affected by it. They want to make it a very difficult thing to understand. But it can be seen very simply. A monkey normally has a tail. A human does not. If you take a monkey and cut off its tail you did not turn it into a human. A male human has certain organs that a human female does not have. If you take a male and remove those organs you did not change him into a woman. If a male wants to say he is a male without a male organ or he feels like a femake or he identifies as a female, that may all be true. But when a male says he IS a female, that is not true. You may take the tailless monkey and put human clothing on it and teach it to ride a bike but it is still not a human. You may take the organ-less male and put female clothing on him and lipstick but he is still not a female. There is a difference between felling like or identifying with or acting like a female and actually being a female. Can you see the difference between saying " I am a man with no male organ who wears female clothing" and "I am a woman"? That is the difference and that is the part that is in the brain.4 Things to Understand About People Living With Being Intersex
All of what we are speaking of: sexual orientation, gender dysphoria, intersex
Have all biological and psychological components. They're not gender expression, wanting to be fad, or anything similar. People back when used to think Epilepsy was from demon possession and they thought sexual orientation was a illness based on the person attracted to and not the attraction itself.
All of this is medical based. Despite people's feelings on the issue.

You say that when a trans female says "I am female" she is referring to her SENSE of self. So her SENSE of self does not match reality. It is a mental problem and not a physical one. It should be treated as a mental issue and not by cutting off body parts to make the physical body match that false SENSE of self. The person is unable to accept reality. If I look in a mirror and see a 5 foot 2 inch tall white male but I SENSE myself as a 6 foot 7 inch Black basketball star does that mean I should get surgery to make my legs longer and put coloring on my skin? I still would not be a basketball star. I have to face reality. And so should people who SENSE themselves to be some other gender than their body says they are.
You can consider it to you or anyone who wants to reply. What are your thoughts?I just so happen to catch this. If this was to me, you gotta buzz me.

You described it very eloquently and accurately. Great post.Thank you Frank
Gender =/= Sex.There exist only 3 genders.
Female, Male and intersex
Evidence?... Science!
I am not someone with naturally small breasts but I sure as heck didn't let that stop me from having major surgery to stop the physical and mental suffering from being super stacked.First, I do not trust everytghing on Wikipedia. Second. Maybe it is not one in a billion but some high schools have a dozen or more students who say they are some other gender. True medical situations are not that common. They are using this as a way to get attention or rebel against society. Just say you are a guy who likes womens clothes or a gal who likes mens clothes. Don't put your body through hormones and surgery to try to be something you are not.
I can only say that if you were born with breasts and a vagina then you are a female. You can be a female who removed breast tissue but you cannot be a male. A white man who pours paint on his body does not become a black man. You can change your appearance but not what nature made you.I am not someone with naturally small breasts but I sure as heck didn't let that stop me from having major surgery to stop the physical and mental suffering from being super stacked.
I also am someone with naturally small amounts of estrogen and high amounts of testosterone. So I take hormones because otherwise I'd be a bearded lady which isn't something I wanted to be.
I don't care what's 'natural' I care what's healthy for me, and the two don't always coincide.
You realize that not everyone with breasts and a vagina have xx chromosomes right? Chromosomal switching is not rare and there are more intersex people than there are people with natural red hair and green eyes. Sex is a spectrum, not a binary.I can only say that if you were born with breasts and a vagina then you are a female. You can be a female who removed breast tissue but you cannot be a male.

Well, at least not yet anyway...We don't gonad or chromosomes check the people in our lives we call women or men.
