These Bad Anatomy videos show the truth of the old phrase, "They hate the things that they don't understand." As for "identifying transgender people by looks," that just expands their abuse to cisgender people who don't have traditional gendered features. I always make transphobes try to pin down how they plan to implement their exclusions. Looks catches some cisgender people and lets some transgender people through. Showing genitals is invasive and lets trans people with surgery through. Chromosomal testing requires a blood sample and lab, and excludes intersex people. Looking at ID lets transgender people through who live in civilized places that let people change their ID. All of the ways they try to exclude people are cumbersome and fail part of the time. On the other hand, accepting people are who they say they are is very simple. As for "Stealing women's titles", that's not transgender folks, that's Drag Queens. And they do it fabulously! As for injecting transgender folks with the hormones from their assigned at birth gender, this has been tried. Again and again and again. It simply doesn't work. I accept that LGBT kids can know who they are at a young age because I knew who I was at a young age. I knew I liked girls. I knew I was cisgender, though I never needed to put it into words. If I could know that, then I accept that anybody might know their orientation and gender identity as a child.

[@PhantomFerret]

Yes! In terms of the last paragraph. I knew I liked women; I was very confused on if I liked men or not, because I wanted to be seen as a man. Since I was nine I felt that my body didn't fit my gender, but I didn't have the words for it besides "I don't want boobs; I want a flat chest." My family said what I felt about my chest was normal (in terms of cisgender folk feeling the same way I did). I didn't come out as trans until I was 20; now, I'm struggling to find a way to go on T, and hopefully, top surgery later on. I'm very depressed and so full of anxiety that my anxiety is keeping me hesitant about going on HRT.

Everyone treated me like one because it's safer to deal with inmates that way. I didn't get brainwashed...I was 26 years old when this was happening.

You made a really good point when you said "why should we trust that cisgender kids know who they are but not trans kids?". I totally agree with that statement as it would be a double standard to only trust that cisgender children know themselves but not trans children. It's the same thing with sexuality. Simply because "straight" is seen as the default, people won't even question if their children are really straight. However if their kid tells them that they're queer, they change their tune and start questioning everything because their kid identifies with something outside of the "norm". It's ridiculous and people like this shouldn't have children.

The AH-1 was fitted with stub wings, an armored tandem cockpit, and of course, a chin-mounted gun turret. It still uses the same engine, transmission, and rotors as the UH-1. Yet nobody would refer to the AH-1 as a utility helicopter anymore; it's an attack helicopter because that's what it was designed to do. Of course, given the addition of the gun turret, I would say it's more transmasc than the other way around.

I think the best way to do gender on forms that I've seen (when it's necessary at all) is first asking what gender the person is, with options like "man," "woman," "nonbinary" "other" and "prefer not to say" then a separate question for "do you identify as transgender," which is the same set up of questions that many forms in the US use for ethnicity and race (with the second question being about hispanic/latine status).

(If a company asks me what pronouns I prefer, etc. it's also a way for them to signal "just so you know, we're not going to be a bunch of raging transphobic assholes" -- the positive sense of "virtue signaling," where they're sending a deliberate signal that they intend to respect people.)

For example, with biological sex, genotype is what sex chromosomes you have and which sex-related genes they have, whereas phenotype is what sexually dimorphic bodily features they have.

You definitely need to study more biology... I feel so embarrassed for you. Delete this comment.

[@annakilifa331]

​@@TheObserver3 they are different things. If you take a look at one gene that has a dominant version (A) and a recessive version (a), someone can have the genotype AA, Aa or aa. AA and Aa would result in them having the same phenotype, namely whatever the dominant gene version is, while aa would mean that they have the phenotype of the recessive gene version. Genotype is what genetics you have, phenotype is the expression of those genetics. Both are in use for reference to humans and other animals and I would assume that both are also used to refer to plants, but I know less about specific terminology for plant biology.

Flashback to me watching Tomo-chan is a Girl and wanting to punch my mom for saying that everyone is blind because you can always tell if someone is trans or not. Clearly not because she still thinks I’m 100% cis

[@kellypeterson8807]

I'm a woman in my 50s. I'm the primary wage earner, and my wonderful husband is the primary cook/cleaner in my home. He is just as much a man as ever: more of a man, IMHO. The idea that chores are defined by gender is ridiculous - and that they are offended by someone else's gender is crazy. I'm cis-gender but have never given birth. Are they going to take my woman card? If so, I'm only giving it up if I can pass it to a trans woman, because trans women are women. Those straights are not right. Keep up the awesome videos, @Jammidodger! Love your channel!

[@maxgonzalez954]

love the videos. regarding the "inject trans people with the 'correct' (same as their sex) hormones to make them cis" wouldnt it just. cause them even more problems. not even because of the dysphoria but because having TOO MUCH of a hormone is harmful for anyone??? anyway, ive started HRT the last days of december 2022! im so happy even with the little progress that i can notice, almost three weeks after the first dosis of testosterone. its been a long journey but im more relaxed now that i know there's gonna be even more physical changes this year :) i have hope for all of us. sending love and support to every trans person out there, you are not alone ♡

[@electronics-girl]

Also, that was in the context of three-year olds. Injecting a three-year-old with a bunch of testosterone would cause them to go through puberty at age three. (It should be immediately apparent why this is a bad thing, but if it's not, look up stories about precocious puberty.)

Ok I actually have a funny story about this one time in school this dude was saying the whole “I identify as an attack helicopter” and being a just a jerk and a problem his friend who was in the GSA said to him “yeah? Well I identify as one punch man” and sucker punched him the stomach, winding him. It was so funny

[@michellecoleman5577]

Ok I just have to mention this because I think of it every single time I hear the bullshit about trans women 'respecting women's spaces', or some variation of that and it breaks my heart every time. There was a story I saw on a TV show (can't remember which) about a trams man who had to visit a public restroom. Regardless of how right it was, he was doing his best to be polite to the owner of the facility, and did as he was told, using the women's restroom when he should have been in the men's. And coming out of the women's, he was jumped and beaten nearly to death by 3 guys who assumed he was a man being a predator in the women's restroom. How are you supposed to win! (I believe this facility was a camping ground or park of some sort but can't remember, so there was really no one around capable of immediately stopping the attack.)

[@petrichorbones]

oh thats so sad and infuriating! its rlly true you cant win with these people. :(

[@mfinchina__117]

That's horrible! Another thing that scares me is the cases where a non-trans woman uses a bathroom and is harassed by people who think she's trans. That's happened several times in the US, with people being threatened, followed, filmed, having them police called on them, etc. As somebody who has always looked more masculine, I'm afraid that will happen to me when I move back there.

[@1st1anarkissed]

That someone could even imagine artificially inducing early puberty on a child because the child isn't performing gender conformity well enough. The reason they think we are crazy is that they haven't even a passing acquaintance with sanity.

[@chancewill6910]

I almost have to laugh when I people say "we can always tell" because they can't. I'm speaking for myself, a trans male twink here but a lot of people assume I'm cis and I'm not that masculine. Like I have a hairless cute face, wear loose clothes that don't show my figure (even though you can tell I have a flat chest), don't know what my own voice sounds like and am currently wearing a Hello Kitty beanie (they're adorable). Some people, I'd say less than 10%, think I'm a woman and a few think my (cis) sister is a boy just because she has short hair. I went my whole senior and maybe junior year of high school stealth so NO "we can always tell" is false

[@BhaktiRosin108]

13:27 if they mentioned something about ideologies being showed down their or their kids throats then "dysphagia" would be hilarious imo

the misinformation and lack of education is staggering 😭😭 ofc i mean education in anything trans. unfortunately the well educated can be just as transphobic and pretending only those who didn't go to school are like this is dangerous bc yeah! powerful ppl out there are encouraging hate and transphobic narratives at alarming rates! sucks! but glad to see another one of your videos, stay safe and wish you the best

Transvestigaters can post this intrusive bs, but I get banned for reporting sexual harassment. Seems fair.

[@Jellybeansatdusk]

My aunt had a mastectomy and the nurses were forced to clean the wound site as it experienced dehiscence. My mom had surgery to remove her perineal cancer, and those poor nurses were forced to clean the aberration. Imagine thinking nurses gaf about cleaning wounds. They do it all the time. They do much worse, including debridement of massive burns and management of gangrene and muscular atrophy and parasites and even worse. It’s their job. They don’t gaf, they do it because they’re committed to patient care. That’s why they’re amazing people. Hell, my cat got neutered, and I was forced to keep her incision site clean dry. 😂
