Yeah, everything is good in theory.

"Working people should have a good salary and good work conditions". Does a communist say that or a capitalist?

Communism will end up in an oligarchy, capitalism will end up in an oligarchy, anarchism will end up in an oligarchy and totalitarianism starts as an oligarchy.

Maybe there will be a system that taxes the rich in a progressive manner, will give working individuals freedom, will not tolerate corporations as humans and will keep everything somewhere in the middlem

Maybe we should call this a social democracy or something, but what do I know?

No, I already said I'd simply avoid the person

Since gender is socially constructed (male norms, female norms, male jobs, female jobs) the presence of trans people in society that not only understand both sets of roles but can navigate them is probably an advantage over societies where those roles are less fluid and more strict.

This might sound strange but I don't believe in an set of norms in that sense. People can do whatever the fuck they like. Male jobs are male jobs because they require more muscle, female jobs might require more emotional IQ but I don't see why you should be constrained to that

I'm a dude, I like doing laundry, and I like playing with kids, don't like cars and don't like football. Does that make me a woman?

Numbers that can be proven mathematically. The gender idiology is nothing more than:

"Today I feel..."

Because I'm selective with my friends and I don't want any drama, and from my experience and what I keep seeing thsese king of people are all about atention.

Really don't want that in my life

Well yeah, literally you are shaped by your genome

Do you really think trans people go through all that just for the fun of it? I honestly think they have mental problems that won't be solved by mutilating themselves. It's not me to make that decision for them and it's their body but I try to keep myself as far away as possible.

And if a women is not a woman and starts HRT and everything, he’s a dude.

What do you mean a woman is not a woman?

Can you tell that just by looking at people?

Most likely not, but by interacting with people, yes.

Can you tell me the sex of each of those people?

Only from faces? Most likely not. First pic looks like a woman, second like a man, 3rd pic that dude might be a woman, 4th the dude is a woman and 5th I have no damn idea

called them slurs

I don't call people slurs mate, I just avoid interaction.

Would you call them He if you found out?

Yes I would, in both cases. But I guess it would depend, if we were friends I might call them the way they want. But that is a favor as a friend, not something that I would accept be demanded from me

I think you might be misunderstanding the OP.

Yes, I actually was

How do you differentiate between "normal" and a malformation?

If you need special care or attention that is a malformation. If there is a change in your physionomy that impedes you to have a life as normal as other human (you were born without a hand) that's a malformation.

You were arguing that you can't change sex and now you're retreating to 'you need drugs to change sex'

I was actually arguing that you can't change your genome, so yeah, sex. But by HRT you still don't change that, you just try to mimic traits oposite of yours.

Do you think language just evolves on its own without any human interference? Language is by definition something we do.

Of course language can be influenced, but usually when it is, it's for ease of understanding, and generally making people lives better.

By changing the language just for some people to be triggered because they were "misgendered" you don't bring any value

Yeah nah, you are right.

I knew already about sawyer syndrome and that genetically XY can develop woman traits but I understood from the PhD, for some reason, that you can change from XY to XX during your life...

Ok here I can see my lack in logic. I understood that the PhD was saying that XX can change into XY during the life of the person, not that they are born XY and naturally develop female traits.

My only pet peeve with all this is "misgendering" which I honestly despise. If one is a grown up 180cm male I'm never gonna call him a "her" just because of a wig and makeup.

But if someone was raised as a woman because that's how her body developed even if she has XY chromosomes I won't call her "he".
