Ah, this is what I was waiting for, the similarities in males and females by use of behavior as a yardstick.
Yea well I’m mainly being an ass because I don’t like JustB.
It seems to me that stereotypes between males and females are actually the same, but differ in intensity. On materialism;
For example, women are known to go shopping because they like to buy clothes.
On the other side of the coin, men love to get new tech or machines or whatnot, we just don’t feel like we need to bring more friends to add to the “fun” of the event. You all loved getting your most recent videogame system, don’t even front. 
I liek to buy videogames
I brought my buddies to pick up Lollipop Chainsaw today
Faggot.
I love you.
Blatant excuse to accrue likes
The closest thing I can think of that I like to bring friends to, purchase wise, would be comics, and that’s dicey.
I wore a cheerleader outfit just like hers
It looks pretty on me
Under your [S]gay[/S] gi I hope.
If they started as guys, it’s gross.
The skirt was too big to stuff under the pads on my stomach. It still looked gorgeous
I’m increasingly disturbed by how many males I apparently want to suck off these days.
And to think it all started with Kayo Satoh…
It would be incredibly unfair in my opinion to both parties involved if one didn’t want the other based solely on genitalia. Especially if feelings had begun to stir.
I can see how people are bothered with it, but it just doesn’t bother me.

Also,
That is not an objective argument
Looks just like Bailey…
Ahhhh…
I don’t need an argument, it’s just what i feel.
You gonna get one if you keep that attitude up
The cloning example was just a shortcut to say that yes, genetically the person is still the same he/she was when he/she was born.
If the government can re-assign gender just because he/she had surgery, can this guy become legally an animal then?
The “tiger man” has gone through multiple surgeries to change his appearance and look more tiger-like (presumably because he likes/feels like such animal). Does that turn him into a tiger?
Dudes who grow boobies are still dudes. They just get full waxes, grow boobs and let their hair go long.
As such, I find them to still be dudes and not liking dudes sexually find that gross. Happy now?
Not until he gets a tail! RROOOOOAAAWWRWRRR!!!
I’m more interested in sexual attraction than sexual identity so I didn’t really read the OP. Its rather complicated and goes beyond the black and white labels of gay and straight. What needs to be addressed is things like visual and emotional sexual cues that one is attracted to. Like, if a person gives off the overall visual sexual cue of femininity in the same way a actual woman does and since most men are more visual than emotional when it comes to sexual cues (while women are the opposite), a straight man will be attracted to that person regardless of the actual gender of that person. Awareness of that person gender included.
Yes I’m saying that most straight men are actually bi. Im just putting some thought out there though.
Sigh, ok.
True.
Not true. The majority of those who self-identify as gay, lesbian, and bisexual fall under the cisgender label. You also just said right before this:
It’s inconsistent and confusing to suggest a transgender person can have a combination of these, but cisgender persons are only heterosexual.
Misleading. Many people who self-identify as genderqueer do not identify within the binary at all. Suggesting that they fall “between” erases their self-determination.
Some (personally, i’d guess most) people who identify as “bigender” very much use the term in consideration of the norms of the gender binary system.
Not true. Many people self-identify as “bisexual”, but consider it inclusive of transsexuals and others who fall outside the gender binary system.

At least you added this caveat, but it seems silly to do so at the end of a message declaring absolute essentialisms.
Source? This is a confusing statement to make which sounds like you’re linking a sexual identity with a gender identity which, as I pointed out before, you have also said are not mutually exclusive. “Flexible” is not inherently linked to *trans. It’s a term coined to allow individuals to allow that while they do have a primary preference, they don’t have to be limited to expressing sexuality with only one classification of people. I think this frustration was birthed from the idea that if a woman does something sexual with another woman, it’s experimentation. If a man does any sexual act with another man, he’s gay for life. In my opinion. “exception lists” and the desire to allow the possibility of sexual openness and exploration were the preludes to the “-flexible” suffix.
When and where is this true? Indian culture allows for a “third sex” in Hijras, but those are not hemaphrodites. Various Native American tribes allowed for up to 5 different genders, but I don’t believe any of those required or were populated by hermaphrodites.
Also, “hermaphrodite” is a term that has generally been replaced by the term “intersex”. Perpetuating the use of “hermaphrodite” is complicating and stunting the progress of the intersex community to have their own self-determination.
Drag Queens and Drag Kings are knowingly “performing gender”. While some may get aroused by the act of cross-dressing, drag is generally accepted as performance and rarely assumed as a gender identity (personally, I have never heard of someone assuming drag as an identity, but I allow for the possibility). Persons who get a sexual thrill out of cross-dressing are generally identified as “fetishistic crossdressers”.
Backwards. Shion, Ash, and Saiki would be considered androgynous because their gender is difficult to determine from an outside perspective. Crossdressers and transvestites are perceived to have one gender identity presenting as another within a gender binary system.
“Androgynous” is a term used to describe a person whose sex and/or gender identity is difficult to determine through outside perception. Self-identified androgynous persons consider themselves as such because they don’t feel that they have any gender. Therefore, gendered clothing communicates nothing about a self-identified androgynous individual. One who feels they have no gender inherently does not feel they are crossing gender lines with the clothing they wear. It’s just clothes.
If you can’t use accurate terminology or even be consistent with the terminology that you do use, you’re not bringing about “awareness”, you’re sewing seeds of confusion. Real life is also very different from internet life and you just sound like someone who has no real community experience with the people you’re trying to spread awareness about.
I can appreciate what you’re trying to do. You’re just doing it very poorly is all.
I’ve lost interest in attempting to educate about gender, sex, and sexuality issues because it really doesn’t go anywhere with a disinterested hetero-normative audience. If you want to continue down this road yourself, I’d encourage more research and real life experience. Best of luck.
In any case, with all of that said, I don’t get bent out of shape about gender perceptions any more. People are going to think what they’re going to think and believe what they’re going to believe based on their own life experience. It’s become real easy for me to determine quickly those who will enhance my life experience and those I’m better off without. I have no interest in trying to force people to acknowledge me and my own self-identity. I also have no interest in those people who won’t acknowledge my identity.
