So, people are assigned a sex at birth. Why are some people assigned male while others are assigned female? On what basis would a medical professional assume the sex of the child?

The reason is that certain biological characteristics are given the name male, while certain other biological characteristics are given the name female. A person who objectively has the given characteristics is called either male or female.

Males and females go through a
process of aging and development. Young females are referred to using the word "girl" while adult female persons are referred to using the word "woman".

People "assigned female at birth" have the biological characteristics of a female and are girls who will grow up to be women. ImageImageImageImage

Ich versuche mal eine Begriffsklärung von „woke“:

Kurzfassung: performativer Diversitätsdrall.

OK, was?
Von vorn: Performativität heißt, ich tue etwas, nur damit andere sehen, dass ich es tue. Das sind so Gruppenzugehörigkeitsgesten, auch Virtue Signalling genannt.
Gendern ist ein klassisches Beispiel: nichts am Inhalt des Textes ändern, nur an der Form.
Noch extremer: diese eine Bank, die pressemitgeteilt hat, jetzt die angenommenen Namen von Transmenschen auf die Bankkarten zu schreiben, wegen #teamFeminismus und so.
Dieselbe Bank zahlt ihren Mitarbeiterinnen 30% weniger Boni als ihren Mitarbeitern, aber hey! Solche Kleinigkeiten sind doch egal, solange man #teamFeminismus ist oder?

Wokeness tut so, als wären diese Symbole nicht Symbole für Feminismus, sondern schon selbst der Feminismus.

Some hurl “TERF” like an insult. I’ve long thought, well this doesn’t quite fit me, but if that’s what you call me because I believe sex is real, I’ll accept it. I guess.

I’m neither “trans exclusive” or a “radical feminist.” But fine. If you must.

Then it occurs to me…
The criticisms against people who object to trans ideology are never “the MEN who actually kill trans people,” & rarely “transphobes” more generally. The problem is always TERFs - feminists, women.

Women don’t kill trans ppl. Men do. Trans ppl have killed women.
But it’s important that the focus remain, in liberal politics, on silencing feminists. Not because they have ever hurt a trans person. They haven’t. But because they have good arguments.

Women with good arguments are dangerous. And deserve to be punched.

Tale as old as time

In #TheCloser Dave Chappelle touched on a problem with gender ideology that women have been pointing out for years; it is a belief system which allows straight, white men to co-opt the oppression of every other group: ethnic minorities, women, and the gay community.
#TeamTERF
Those who are co-opting the oppression of other groups are often simultaneously sexually aroused by subordination, even as they leverage it to gain their narcissistic supply.

Gender ideology is built on sadomasochism and dissociation, and pornography plays a central role. Image
Moore's profile says, "Used to be a sex worker". Gender ideology supports legalization of sex trafficking, of commodifying the body, in no small part because it enables men to be 'treated like a woman', which so often means being treated like a sex object.

“They cancelled @jk_rowling, they started calling her a TERF. I didn't even know what that was, but I know that trans people make up words to win arguments... I'm team TERF.”

— Dave Chappelle

#SexNotGender
In light of Dave Chappelle's comments, those who aren't aware of why J. K. Rowling has been slandered may be interested in reading her June 2020 essay on the topic of gender identity ideology and the rights of women and children.
