this is going to come to a head at some point, but be sure that creditors, college admissions, etc, have all been told about this. most surveys show that at least 50% of white people lie about being "not white". ya know, which would make sense in a racist white nation <_<
but essentially, this all comes about because dumb college $*!@#s don't understand how sociology works. it's basically a philosophical problem, and as someone in that field, i know most people really, really don't give a rat's ass about it or completely don't get it anyway.
the whole thing rises from a lack of understanding the principle of sociology. sociology is the study of societies, which is the opposite of individuals. society is ephemeral, it "doesn't exist" in nature. this is where the Left gets all their "does not exist" stuff from, and on that point they are at least at the most elementary level, correct. BUT, you **cannot apply things from a societal viewpoint to individuals in a vacuum.**
let me expand:
class
race
age
gender
none of these "exist" in a vacuum. if a man were isolated on a deserted island; he would possess NONE of these qualities. they exist and arise SOLELY FROM society; society is what makes these characteristics important AND what gives them meaning. without society, these things are totally irrelevant and have no importance.
these qualities have Natural world counter parts:
wealth
genetics
age (actual number, not generalization)
sex
you can't look at a man and instantly know his wealth; you can use societal clues to ascertain his "class" tho.
you can't look at a man and instantly know his genetics (he might be 20% irish, 40% germanic, etc etc); you can societal clues to ascertain his "race" tho.
you can't look at a man and instantly know his age; you can use societal clues to know if he's "young" or "old" tho.
you can't look at a man and instantly know he's biologically male; you can use societal clues to know he's a man.
where leftists and retarded academics run into trouble is NOT discussing these ideas, BUT WHERE EACH OF THESE IDEAS COME FROM.
HERE'S THE KICKER:
YOU
DO
NOT
CHOOSE
ANY
OF
THESE
SOCIETY
CHOOSES
THEM
FOR
YOU
Gender is a **determination of the observer**.
Gender is NOT a declaration of the observed.
you don't choose your gender; society does.
you don't choose your race; society does.
you don't choose your age; society does.
you don't choose your class; society does.
an individual *does not have the ability to declare these things*
these things are the *determination of society*.
and this makes sense when you REALLY think about it; like most things (i understand npc literally cannot do this). like what is the point of a Tranny if not "to pass"? why go to the bother of trying to LOOK like a woman, SOUND like a woman, MOVE like a woman, if not to SHAPE THE DETERMINATION OF SOCIETY?
ask a tranny what gender they are: they will tell you what they think.
but if that's all that was required, why even bother being trans?
because that's not all that is required; the requirement FULLY hinges on the ability to CONVINCE OTHERS that you are trans.
that's the point of the surgeries.
that's the point of the alteration of appearance.
that's the point of the puberty blockers.
that's the point of the mutilation.
it's not *for the individual.*
it's *for society* to see them as "more of a woman". like....i mean are they trying to convince the person *who already thinks they are a woman*?! NO, of course not! it's to convince OTHERS.
and this makes sense! for it is OTHERS who decide your sociological concepts; not you.
