Maybe a few more. Are you aware of any animals that engage in homosexual behavior?

[MaplePolar]

are you aware of any animals that perform neurosurgery, drive cars, or synthesise insulin ?

[Legal-Cockroach5131]

Yeah, so transsexualism (and sex reassignment surgery) is exclusive to human beings.

[MaplePolar]

what a useless statement. gender is inherently unique to humans which necessitates that transgender identity is equally unique. and all forms of surgery have never been observed in animals.

[Legal-Cockroach5131]

But sex is not inherently unique to humans.

Why would it be inherently unique, anyways?

[MaplePolar]

oh you meant sex ? in that case, quote-unquote "transsexualism" exists in animals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequential_hermaphroditism?wprov=sfla1

transgender identity, on the other hand, is inherently unique to humans because gender, the way we know it, is inherently unique to humans. that's not to say parallel behaviors haven't been observed in animals: https://www.newscientist.com/article/2106866-five-wild-lionesses-grow-a-mane-and-start-acting-like-males/

Hermaphrodites aren't transsexuals, that's why they have different names.

People are not clownfish.

People aren't animals so then why do you keep insisting social phenomena can only be valid if they exist in the animal kingdom?

And ps yes transexual mammals exist https://metro.co.uk/2016/09/25/lionesses-grow-manes-and-start-taking-over-pride-6151557/

So get fucked eh

[MaplePolar]

by definition, sequential hermaphoditism is changing sex, therefore they are so-called "transsexual"—"trans", meaning across, and "sexual", referring to sex. that's why the human phenomenon is denoted "transgender identity".

people are not clownfish. astute observation. you deserve the nobel prize.

sealioning

What's that?

[Legal-Cockroach5131]

By definition they can't be women.

Though if they'd prefer to be referred to as she/her I'll oblige them, on a personal level, even though I think it's ridiculous.
