By that definition you can be called a bigot by an opposing faction for example if you stir your coffee anti clockwise. I mean you’re right, anybody can be a bigot. But for some strange reason a lot of these religious and political fanatics tend to be bigots. I myself cannot figure out why, maybe you could? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's because they firmly put themselves in one group, usually the one that is considered 'wrong think's, making a nice juicy target. The quim reaper is skillfully sitting on the fence neither one way or another, having no option at all. Which is worse imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are deliberately missing what I initially said. You said everyone’s a bigot. I asked you to explain, you couldn’t, so I explained why not everyone’s a bigot. Where’s the fence-sitting or gender identity doubting in any of that? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I said everyone could be called a bigot by the definition, not everyone is a bigot. The reason I have asked those questions is because you say you are a man, and you base that on the biological reasoning. You then go onto say you believe trans women are women, basing that on self identification. The only reason why you have these views is that you don't want to be called a bigot. They are opposing viewpoints, but you accept both to socially conform and be in both camps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go drink your chocolate milk and get off your "Mummy"'s computer. EDIT: For clarification, even if you are a biological male who identifies as male, you can still call it self-identification. You, yourself are identifying as a male. Edited February 20, 2021 by Dying Probably Clarifying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not unreasonably attached to that, it’s just a fact, in the senses of both biology and self-identification" So yes he said he is a biological Male. Do try to keep up.

Self-identification is merely how you identify. Think of it like a multiple choice exam. You have two questions, and three boxes, similar to gender. Now you can answer it like this: Or even like this: You see, the "sex" bit is the biological one. The "gender" one is self-identification. Now, if you answer Question 1 and Question 2 has the same answer, do you leave it blank? Of course not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
