even though biology doesn't agree, swollow's point is that an lgbt thread isn't the place for exclusion even if it's silly
The whole thing about gender has nothing to do with what love organs someone has, in this explanation below, gender is not describing what loveual/reproductive organs someone has, and if you actually want to get some understanding or scope into what this whole concept is like please read this whole thing, if you are already off put about my initial disclaimer I beg that you read this with an open mind because it's hard for anyone to understand something that they have no experience with
Gender dysphoria is an issue people face and it is due to a mostly chemical problem within someones brain. We as humans have evolved to a point where as humans we have very complex brains that are capable of so many different things and emotions and feeling like you are a different gender and or hating your body as you were born is essentially a mutation in the brain, and this is something that obviously happens to people, for example transgender people who are very uncomfortable with who they are being a very real issue, and it has to do with the brain, and its something that they make a shift in their live that improves it for them and makes them happy and able to accept who they are even if they were not born that way.
In a similar way sometimes people are not comfortable as being just male/female, this is generally referred to as non-binary gender
I know a few people who feel like they are a girl and they're like "I knew it, this is who I'm happy as", and then maybe a few weeks later they say "I'm wrong, I'm probably just a boy." They go back and forth and are never really satisfied with who they are, sometimes this isn't a gender problem and they are dissatisfied with their life and they think that being a different gender will fix this, sometimes they just want to feel special and like people will find them interesting, but sometimes this is a very real struggle in their lives; similar to transgender people, however they face the issue where they are never happy with either side.
On another hand, sometimes people who identify as non-binary gender are people who are scared to fully transition to being the other gender because of stigma in society, the threat that their family and friends will not accept them for who they are
Now I will not argue with you guys, there are most definitely a percentage of people who make up names for genders and choose to identify as some special term, and the best thing you can do with them is just ignore it, just refer to them how they want to be and don't make a deal about it, just know them for who they are, not their gender, and if they are infact using their gender as a way to appear interesting and people don't make a big deal out of the concept, then their facade will be dropped. But for some people it's really important that they are accepted as who they are be it male female or something in between, and once you accept them as such their gender should not matter at all to anyone but themselves.
The real kicker of all of this is, it does not matter what people want to be, it will almost in every case have no affect on you at all, so just accept someone as being male female or whatever the forget they want to be even if it doesn't match their appearance or how their voice sounds, because the only person it really matters is to that person and their inner struggle with gender dysphoria
After reading all this if you have any questions, send me a pm, make a post here, google something, add me on steam, I will happily answer them
TL;DR: If you are not going to read this explanation of gender dysphoria then you have no place to argue about how it works or how you think it should work
