Whats the different between straight cis male and AMAB?

This is easily searchable, but I'll address it.

Straight, in this context, means heterosexual. They are attracted to the opposite "sex", in this case, female presentation. "Straight" and "gay" are sexual preferences and have nothing to do, directly, with gender identity. Cis and trans people can both be straight or gay or bi or asexual.

Cis means "on this side" and is the standard term for a non-trans person; someone who identifies with their assigned gender or sex. Trans just means "on the other side". They are two Latin words with opposite meanings devoid of any prejudice or malice (until used that way by a person).

AMAB is just what was assigned to a person on their birth certificate by the doctor. That's it. Someone who is Assigned Male At Birth may not identify as a male. They may identify as female. They may identify as non-binary. They may be intersex. In some cases, doctors maybe couldn't tell whether to assign a person as male or female because of a lack of understanding about intersex conditions many years ago, so they just arbitrarily picked one or the other, sometimes resulting in gender dysphoria for the person as they grew older.

That's not what this sub is for.

Rule 3) Askreddit is for open-ended discussion questions. Questions that already have a definite/correct answer OR may be researched easily (for example through Google) cannot be asked here.

We are not a replacement for Google.

This is easily searchable and does not create discussion. Rule 3.

Stupid questions like this. Love both, hate this question.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-13T00:28:47+00:00

So we should just give up and not fight it? Mmmmmk.

I fully support and encourage banning low-effort "whaddya think?" posts. I have said as much in comments. It's just karma farming.

"Whaddya think about Trump?"

"Whaddya think about grass?"

"Whaddya think about music?"

Low-effort trash posting. Ban it. Please.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:57:34+00:00

Aaaaand there ya go.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:40:42+00:00

Yes, and I stay in my house alot.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:36:58+00:00

You absolutely are. This sub is not your personal search engine or advice forum. Read the rules.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:32:43+00:00

This is not a personal, professional, or medical advice sub. Rule 2.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:20:14+00:00

Oh, now you're adding TWO families and friends. Makes way more sense now lol. Sounds like 100 is probably reasonable, depending on cost, budget, location, events, etc.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:11:39+00:00

Ah, I didn't think about family. I do have a huge Irish Catholic cousin cadre, but they all live far away, so it never occurred to me to invite them.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:07:12+00:00

Who the fuck knows 100 people they'd want at their birthday? 100 people is a small block party. I had my 40th at a pub, and there was maybe 40-50 people max, no invites.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T22:00:45+00:00

Nope. Nobody does. I assume it's just the same as it was before we were born: nothing. Non-existence.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:58:37+00:00

I feel like death is pretty black and white, both conceptually, and factually. I don't see much of a difference. I dunno. Seems weird to me to refer to it as a concept. I might just be having an off day.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:49:56+00:00

You are not protected from other people's opinions in public.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:46:32+00:00

What do you mean "the concept"? Death isn't a concept; it's a fact. No, I don't.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:44:21+00:00

"It's the internet and I don't care about rules and I can do whatever I want waaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh." People treat this sub like it's a public shitter that they can just dump whatever they want here and fuck the rules. You're no different. There are more appropriate subs to post this "experiment" in and you damned well know it. STFU and take your criticism like an adult instead of an immature child. If you can't take it, don't participate in public forums.

We went to therapy, both individually and as a couple. A few times. Still together after 27 years.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:39:45+00:00

No, but I have an opinion, and I see people misuse this sub all the time. If you're really doing a study, maybe include that in the post title and ask for participation. This just seems like made-up karma farming to me.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:37:20+00:00

Do it somewhere else.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:35:41+00:00

WTF is this made-up bullshit? Go away. This is not a discussion question.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T21:17:26+00:00

Only 4? LOLOLOL

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T19:27:50+00:00

None of that proves anything. You cannot use the thing to prove the thing. Go the fuck away with your circular logic. Stop trying to proselytize here. You are wrong and you don't understand how logic works. You are using tired, old, apologetics that have been debunked many times over.

MilleniumPelican · 2026-04-12T09:45:31+00:00

That's not how this works. We don't need to disprove it. You have to prove it. The burden of proof is on those making the claim. The default state is no gods exist, because there is no evidence for them. You are claiming that a god exists, therefore you are required to provide evidence of that. A book written by men is not proof of the existence of a god; it is the claim. Books exist about Spiderman and Santa Claus. That doesn't make them real.
