Gender Identity Issues and Transexualism In Your Nation

Postby Seculartopia » Thu Oct 14, 2010 1:33 pm

How is a person viewed who does not apply their physical gender to themselves, or has a dislike for their physical gender?

In youth, is it viewed as a natural part of curiosity for various genders and sexualities leading into puberty, or an abnormal, disorder-like concern?

Is any social stigma in any generation held against those described in the first question?

Out of whack, needs therapy.

Abnormal, it's considered normal for an adolescent to be interested in members of the opposite sex, not for an adolescent to want to BE a member of the opposite sex.

Yes, DUH!

In Olthar, this is a non-issue. Repression of the peoples' personalities also represses all "gender differences." In Olthar, men and women are one and the same.

Most Redslavians never face conflicts with their gender. The females are happy to be females, and the males are happy to be males. While it is legal to get a sex change, it rarely happens.

People are capable of routinely changing gender in my nation, which they'll often do just because.

They are treated like any other person. The prevelance of bisexuality, homosexuality, and transsexualism is complimented by the very high degree of crossdressing to the point that gender is a person's personal decision in terms of lifestyle.

Let me re-do this...

Transsexuality is illegal, as it's seen as unnatural.

Crossdressing is legal, transsexuality is outlawed. We think they're mentally ill and force them to get treatment.

Some hardcore Mandirists use it to support their argument that gender identity is independent of physical sex. Most Kiravians just find it strange, but don't really care.

In Hilverland, transsexuality and the likes are not problem.

There is even an option to have your gender set to Transsexual, for those who wish to remain in a pre-op stage but not be called "men". Other than the letter on the passport it doesn't change a thing though, people are equal to the state and peers regardless of gender.

Mentally ill.

In youth, is it viewed as a natural part of curiosity for various genders and sexualities leading into puberty, or an abnormal, disorder-like concern?


Disorder. Parents who discover their children experimenting in abnormal sexual practices usually will either beat them (if they are old-fashioned) or take them to therapy.

Is any social stigma in any generation held against those described in the first question?


Plenty. Men are expected to be men and women are expected to be women, and someone who tries to "define their own gender" usually ends up jobless and/or face down in a dumpster.

No differently than anyone else. Why would they be?

It's viewed as very normal for adolescents to experiment sexually.

No, the only social stigma is against those who would be opposed to the members of the aforementioned groups.

You sound like a nice friend, but since I am 19, it wouldn't really work out well legally.

Plus, I doubt your bisexual, thus making it nigh impossible for us to date.

In Turmoilandia, they can do whatever they like in private, but they are certainly not allowed to act in an indecent manner in public without becoming an outcast in our society. Most people in our nation disapprove of people who pretend to be male when they are female or pretend to be female when they are male.

Since there is little to no society left, a social stigma would be impossible.

Among the uneducated masses these people can be viewed with a certain distaste, but generally Makaarians are a tolerant folk. It is also illegal to discriminate against someone in employment or service provision based on their gender, perceived gender, or sexual identity.

Seculartopia wrote:In youth, is it viewed as a natural part of curiosity for various genders and sexualities leading into puberty, or an abnormal, disorder-like concern?


No, transexualism is considered quite abnormal, in that the vast majority of people stick to their natural gender. But again, it is not classified as a mental health issue. Schools may make special provisions for transexual students to enable them to attend school with the minimum possible stigma - including allowing them to dress and act like their chosen gender.

Seculartopia wrote:Is any social stigma in any generation held against those described in the first question?


We won't pretend that the stigma doesn't exist, but the vast majority of people are outwardly tolerant. Few will openly express their disgust at someone else's life choice to that person's face, unless that person's life choice involves breaching the rights of another.

Such an individual is viewed to be a mentally aberrant individual who clearly has difficulty coping with physical reality. However, he is not committing any crime by doing so, and so this behavior is legal.

Seculartopia wrote:In youth, is it viewed as a natural part of curiosity for various genders and sexualities leading into puberty, or an abnormal, disorder-like concern?
Curiosity is regarded as normal. Blatant denial of physical reality and self-inflicted genital mutilation is regarded as an aberration.

Seculartopia wrote:Is any social stigma in any generation held against those described in the first question?
Such an individual is regarded as being mentally aberrant with a somewhat tenuous grasp on reality. While there is no outright stigma against it, such a thing would likely make one ineligible for employment in any field where a strong grasp of reality is required to perform the job. People like this usually wind up in the entertainment industry, where a strong grasp of reality is not necessary and may even be a hindrance.

Those who claim that they are another gender and/or experimenting with unnatural behaviors and relationships are sent to a penal battalion until "cured" at which point they are released. Any relapses into such behaviors and thought patterns will result being returned to a penal battalion. Those with three relapses are sent to penal battalions for life. Those who refuse to reject such thoughts, behaviors, or "lifestyles" will remain in penal battalions for life. Any who know of individuals participating in such activities or practices are required by law to turn the deviants in unless they themselves wish to serve in a penal battalion as well. And trust me, you do not want to spend time in a penal battalion.

Pretty badly, actually. We used to burn them, then, when guns were invented, we started to shoot them. For awhile we just banished them, but now we shoot them again.

It is seen as unnatural and against the natural order. Unlike other disorders, transexuality is viewed as actually being evil here.

In Fatatatutti, we pay little attention to gender. You can do what you want and wear what you want. There are no stereotypical "roles". Youthful curiosity is always encouraged.

The only exceptions are some recent immigrants who haven't adjusted to Fatatatutian culture yet. On the other hand, people who don't want a free and easy lifestyle are probably less likely to come here.
