Here/Below is an extract of an email I just sent to "PN" ...
Quote: allô ...
I'm aware that PN might begin to find "hearing from" me meaningless,
but that is up to PN ... anyway ...
3) The PN TrP "updateprofile" page (& TG) language/terminology (in general) is "incorrect"»
"Please use your biological gender OR the gender you self-identify with if you prefer.
You can enter additional transgender related information further in the registration process."
See»
@Facebook
There is no such thing as "biological gender". The correct terminology is "genetic sex".
I/People am/are not a MALE or FEMALE ...
(any more than I/People am/are a Caucasian or a "...")
MALE or FEMALE (or intersexed) ... that is someone's "gene-sex" ...
PN TrP ignores Intersex.
To be correct PN could/should give 3 options for "gene-sex"
Furthermore, I am not a "man" - (just) because my "gene-sex" is male ...
see»
Gender≠(Genetic)Sex
The following is incorrect»
ADONI is a:
Man looking for a Woman
My S-- is male. My gender is (so-called) TG (as opposed to CIS ...)
Does PN (search functionality) consider TrP members
who say their gene-sex is male to be women?
ADONI is a:
"TransGendered" genetic male seeking a "woman"; i.e., CIS-female or TG-male
would be correct ...
... whatever ...
thanks for listening ...
Bon week-end ... Also see my post in "Current Events" for more on "sexism", SVP ...
I am not running a poll because ... among other reasons ... "Devil's advocates"
will/would just vote contrary to what they think my vote would be ...
... whatever ...
Bon week-end ...
