    Since most transphobes base their arguments primarily on a perceived biological binary, the argument needs to be brought up.

    The psychological and sociological arguments around gender identity and expression sadly aren’t very fruitful when the people you’re trying to convince fixate on biology knowledge that has been refuted for decades.

      Okay, I see. I am not from the US, which might be guessed from my misspelling of “necessary” above. I am sorry you have to deal with those people, but for what it is worth they are not so abundant here (in my experience at least).

            No worries. I’m luckily also mostly spared from personal confrontations with assholes in my country
