What are cis and trans alternate types of? I don’t think it’s “gender identity” because wouldn’t that just be man, woman or nonbinary regardless of whether they’re cis or trans? Cis/trans just being a qualifier?

If the answer is “I am cis” or “I am trans”, what is the question?

Edit: Someone came up with the term “gender congruity” and (after looking up the definition of “congruity”) I think this describes what I’m talking about perfectly.

    If sex is a social construct as you claim, you have an incredibly easy position to support. All you have to do is show me one verified example of a non-ectopic human male pregnancy. If you can do that, I will concede on all points and incorrectly say sex when I mean gender, just like you do, for the remaider of my life.

    That’s how confident I am that you don’t know anything about this topic.

      What are you even talking about? Whether someone can conceive or not has nothing to do with the socially constructed concept of sex. Or we would simply refer to someone’s uterus or testicles when talking about them. Male and female are constructed concepts. We would call someone a person with a uterus, or a person with testicles if we wanted to talk about those things. That is not what sex is.

      You have literally no idea what socially constructed even means do you?

        This is deliciously ironic coming from the person who continuously misuses it.

        Sex is a biological characteristic. It is not a social construct. You mean gender when you say sex, you just know so little about the topic that you don’t even understand how you’re wrong.
