Dax is the "soul", Jadzia or Curzon are the bodies. Thus it seems that the gender of Jadzia Dax / Curzon Dax is entirely defined (or perhaps not defined at all?) by the body Dax is residing in. Whereas trans people in real world believe in a gendered soul that is independent of the body they are in.... right?
But it's not like I oppose some other interpretation of it.
Oh right. How amazing that one of my highest upmodded comment is the one where my comment is objectively full of shit
Great article, thanks for that.
Quote from its 4th section:
then I ought to accept an unexpected man or two deep inside the conceptual boundaries of what would normally be considered female if it’ll save someone’s life.
I think the confusion (in my case) is that even though I think male and female are well-defined concepts based on biology, this fact does not preclude doing something special for the benefit of the remaining 1% who don't fit the definition. And it also doesn't preclude having a sexual identity that differs from the biological ones.
So I don't understand the leap from what I'm saying to accusing me of being transphobic, and by extension, evil in a somewhat religious sense. This is where it seems to me that the discussion is fucked.
And the accusation of being anti-scientific I thought was just wrong, but that's fine.
edit too serious commentary removed from before I realized what sub I was in
Oh shit I missed one of these again.
Seems like y'all hate centrists very much, so I'll just proudly say my centrist opinion here. Obviously they should have rights. No buts.
(Yes to butts)
Wait, Trump isn't allowed to vote now? Lol if true.
I don't think so. They know each other.
That's some old testament shit though, technically doesn't apply to christians.
