You guys are confusing sex and gender. Two different concepts. One, sex, is determined by X and Y and it’s variations and combinations. Gender is a very different thing, contributed by sex but not fully explainable by simply X and Y, as we all know very feminine acting males and masculine acting females and this has nothing to do with sexual orientation nor actual sex identity.

I say this only to explain this is a lot deeper than you guys are making it seem. Gender and sex identity are very different. Until you understand that, any arguments you make are pointless and thrown away by anyone as simply ignorant of the topic.

So does this mean that being a trans-gender homosexual is the same as being straight?

The idea that a boy thinks he is a girl is no less absurd than a deathly skinny woman that thinks she's fat. But it's also not any less untrue.

As a society we treat one as it should be treated with compassion and treatment. The other some are encouraging the mental illness.

Ok gender is as much societal as it is genetic. We all recognize most cultures say the man needs to be the hunter-gatherer for the family unit, and this has passed down to societies today, but increasingly we see males stay home while the female takes that role because she has higher earning potential. Is this an abomination or satanic?
We see a lot of men that really care how they look and we call them metrosexual, men that dye their hair and care about appearance, despite being fully male, but taking that aspect from a typical female gender identity, are these folks abominations and satanic?

There is a wide range of gender role/identity that I has nothing to do with sexuality, has nothing to do with being a tranny or cross dresser. You guys are making the leap based on a headline to say that anyone who has some cross gender identity is a homosexual or abomination, and I am just saying that isn’t the case at all. Far from it. That’s what I am trying to say here.

The other thing that needs addressed is anyone who posts anything about being a Christian and then turns around and blanket statements a group of people are abominations or satanic, needs a personal check. A person can be a christin and guilty of whatever sin they want, but as long as they aren’t acting or living in that sin they are trying to be more Christ like, then they are ok by me. I don’t see the same kinds of comments about adultery, gluttony, drinking to excess, greed, pride, racism, etc....to call a certain sin an abomination and satanic is pretty much calling everyone the same, and I choose to believe we are all redeemable and loved by God until our final judgement (which is none of ours to do). As Christians we need to be better than that.

I'm fine with identifying a feminine acting male as a man with womanly tendencies or a masculine female as a butch female. There are alpha men, beta men, and a whole bunch of other "identifiers." I will never say that a feminine acting male IS a female or that a butch/manly female IS a man, because that's a lie. To say someone else is ignorant for not participating in someone else's delusions is the real ignorance.

Just to be clear, not one person on this thread has read the article posted on the OP and not one person said this topic was about trannies or cross dressers or people with gender identity issues and no one ever stated this thread was about people trying to identify as a man when they are in fact female or vice versa. Many have read that into their comments without specifically stating it, and I saw a bunch of early posts about how it is all simply X, Y, and chromosomal....I made a post saying gender was much more than that, to which no one has refuted nor bothered to look up anything more about gender, and still the post revolves around the “supposed” time magazine article that no one has read about trannies, cross dressers, and sex changes and how society as a whole is trying to thrust a delusion on us.

People, either read the article and post some stuff that is in it about how time is pushing an agenda, or at least look at the topics SA posted and go through them, or re-brand the thread to be about trannies, cross dressers and folks looking for sex changes, but until you do that, I will continue to assume the article and the discussion is about gender and that’s it....I am not trying to say we need to assimilate trannies and folks wanting a sex change into our normal lives, nor am I sayin they are just normal people who have a no issues.....so if you want a thread about that, then start one or change this one to specifically stare such.

In almost every case when the topic of "gender" is being discussed, it's usually in relation to LGBTQ and those who "identify" as the opposite sex. So it's pretty safe to assume that is the baseline/starting point of almost any "gender" topic.....especially on a conservative hunting forum. If you want to make a "gender" discussion about something else, perhaps you should start the thread?

Real meaning behind the thread: discussing and bashing the small high fence operations and the way they pen deer until the day they are to be shot then released right before the hunter goes out



Title of thread: science of gender

Real meaning behind the thread: let’s discuss our feelings on trannies, cross dressers, and people that want or have had sex changes
