Do you believe there is more than two genders?

[Anonymous]

Some people call themselves things like gender fluid, non-binary, agender

I personally believe there is only two genders man and woman.

[Soteris]

It is more accurate to say that genders as we know it does not actually exist and us trying to apply our faulty version to actual reality means we will have more and more cases where it screws up and we will have to improvise by creating more and more "genders" to compensate.

[Sasahara]

Only two.

[Veles]

There's only 2 genders and rest is mentally ill.

So, you're not a biologist, or a scientist of any kind. You have zero training or study in any related field of any kind, am I correct? Ok, now that we've established you have NO expertise whatsoever, let's point out that you've already already made the typical mistake of using sex and gender interchangeably while allowing misconstruing hermaphrodites or other species that can CHANGE sexes during their lifespan, to be a "third" gender.

Like many others, your reaction seems to be with the myriad of gender variations that humans wish to establish about their own "roles" in society. If you thought of genders in that way, you might not get your mind in such a twist. To do that, you'd need to recognize that in the animal kingdom, they do not get to choose roles. But make no mistake, roles DO switch in certain animals, but their "sex" does not.

I know you'd like this subject to be so simply binary like you think you were schooled on it, but science evolves, and so has our understanding of both human biology and the animal kingdom. It was once believe that humans carry simply XX or XY chromosomes, but that's not the case, and it's backed up by genetics and scientifically proven research and methodology. If you don't like that, can't accept that, or think you know better about "what's on this whole planet", that's not a "science problem", that's a you problem. Science is not your enemy; a lack of information is.

there's only 2 genders. male and female.

[Opinion Owner]

at the doctor, on the forms, if you're feeling like a male that day but are actually a female, what do you put? you'll confuse the hell out of everyone for no reason.

[madhatters4]

because gender is construct (not biological) there can be any number of genders if we choose

[Kaneki05]

Gender is socially made up thing therefore can be whatever society say's hence if there is more then there just is.
Sex however is a factually determined thing though there is still high variance in sexes as Chromosomes can end up in all kinds of combinations. And evolution wise there is many creatures that can or used to be able to change sex at will.

So saying there is just hard set rule that one must be that way and only that way would be wrong by all counts.

[Berethor]

Those people are silly, but at least they don't cut themselves like trans.

[Astarlessnightsky]

Yes, gender is a spectrum. What you mean is biological sex.

[pickles77]

There has never been a third option. Both males and females have many different characteristics sometimes they overlap but it doesn’t change the gender you were born as

[Nifrayu]

The concept of gender is one that I have no interest in. It's all socially defined, arbitrary and complicated.

[Anonymous]

There are two genders, male and female. It has always been that way, and to the sane majority who live in the real world it always will be.

[007kingifrit]

no, gender is itself a total pseudoscience.

there are 0 genders. there are 2 sexes

[Nevoooooo]

i believe there is male and female, and one of those genders can have a malformed brain that questions that.

[Anonymous]

There two genders and the liberals who believe there's more than that are just mentally ill.

[gorydetails]

No there are not.
