I gotta be honest the whole 70+ genders thing seems like a bit much to me.
I think we should limit it to 5 genders. You got your m, f, mtf, ftm, and then you got what I call your "wildcards." |
I can't speak for trans people, but it always has seemed wrong to me to label mtf and ftm as separate genders. Trans people undergo a transition with the purpose of being acknowledged in every way as the gender they identify with. Wouldn't calling them 'trans men', for instance, not get in the way of that acknowledgement, as if they're not 'real' men? Why not just call them men?

Apart from that, I think I agree with you, so I'd say 3 genders. But I consider it a subtle and complicated problem, and I haven't come to a definitive conclusion at all

To me there are really just 2, I was being generous with 5. Even if you want to say you don't identify with any gender... That's not really a new gender. |
Funny, you never asked me

What about hermaphrodites?

How is waking up one day feeling like a man and the next feeling like a woman(for those that experience it) different than waking up in a ****ty mood or amazingly happy? And why do we need to recognize this feeling as something special and separate from other human emotions?
