No, you read the OP wrong.

He was a man who wanted to be a woman and was buried as a man anyway.

Even though its entirely obvious that 90% of the time a government form asks you to put your "sex", they actually want your gender, which they insist is also your sex. To say nothing of the government documents that actually ask for "gender".


Well, with the GOP coming back to power, they'll probably just standardize all of them to say "white Protestant straight male" or "other" for every question.

And that's not going to get you very far on this site. I'd strongly suggest you re-think why you joined a debate site when you have zero care about anyone elses opinion.

Where in the fuck are you getting this bullshit from, people?

SHE was born, and had the label of "boy/man" SHOVED upon her, merely because she was born with a penis. She realized she was a woman, and began transition, and lived her life as a woman, because she was a woman, and to do otherwise would be to lie to herself and to the world. Her dumbass family and church and the dumbfuck in the funeral home decided, upon her death, to institute one final act of misgendering, one last middle finger to her very identity, and labelled her "a man", and shoved her in men's clothing.

Except, as I already explained, 90% of the time those forms ask for "sex", they really want to know your gender, but they're also stupid and insist that your sex is your gender, unless you're lucky enough to get a legal marker change. And yes, contrary to your bullshit assertions to the contrary, it is possible to get a legal marker change. Just because you don't know how to do it, because you've not needed to, doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I would've let the close friends and family decide. I mean the people who know her the best. I mean he changed for a reason. I would want to be remembered as who I am not who I was, but that's just me. Bury him/her (using pronouns in this post are tricky) as a woman, or whatever their close friends or significant others believe is right.

I disagree with your assessment. Do you have a source for your claim or are you just making it up?

You obviously didn't think through your words before posting. My assertion was not the strawman you created.

Yes, I do. Personal experience in my interactions with the government via forms.

Then please, by all means, tell me what your assertion WAS. And prove that I was attacking a strawman.

Then please do share which form(s)...shouldn't be difficult since you're claiming such a large majority

There is no honestly denying the fact that I made no assertion about it being impossible to change a legal marker. You made one up and attributed it to me.

1. I never claimed a large majority. I claimed multiple forms. ACT tests, voter registration forms, and my learner's permit. That's 3 forms.

I didn't say they ask 90% of the time. 90% of those asking would certainly be a large majority of the forms that ask. How do you get 90% from 3 forms?

You still haven't explained how you came to believe that they are actually seeking gender and not sex.

In answer to your question, you created an assertion that I never made, and then falsely attributed it to me.

If you HONESTLY consider such a simple statement of fact to be mental gymnastics, then I feel sorry for you.

1. Fair enough.

2.

Given the popular misconception that sex=gender, it is therefore not at all unreasonable to assume that they want to know what your gender is.

4. I already fucking told you, I didn't change any words in your post that I quoted. That is all YOUR words, not mine.

5. Its mental gymnastics because you're blatantly lying (in open contradiction of evidence proving you're lying), saying that you didn't say something you literally said, and claiming that I'm putting words in your mouth when I give proof, despite the fact that your post is still fucking there, untouched. I've got the fucking screenshot to prove your post was unaltered.

You are not being honest. Seriously, instead of continuing to dig your hole, maybe you should actually read my post.

The FACT is that the assertion you claimed is not an assertion I have made. There is no honestly denying that fact. It is found right there in my quote of what you posted.
