Gender is indeed based on what an individual feels like. That's a perfectly reasonable way to categorize people - it's also for example what religion is based on. It's just hard to implement systems where you give different rights to different genders when there's no way to check what gender someone is besides asking them. Probably the best solution is to just treat people the same regardless of gender so nobody has an incentive to lie.
I couldn't agree more.
This is an excellent take! Especially considering everyone has historically been treated fairly and there's no reason to consider the compounding effects that would've likely occurred due to generations of white men getting preferential treatment
Clearly the solution is to allow discrimination!
As yes, the Ibram Kendi school of, “I NEED to be racist to correct historical racism. My racism is good though, promise.” All racists think their racism is justified. It’s not. You’re just racist :)
