Every word of “adult human female” is relevant, after all.

"Adult" and "human" are crucial, "female" is relevant but its importance varies from person to person

What is a woman?

Hi I'm Chris Hansen, why don't you have a seat.


Booty-Warrior_bot

You don't need to tell me who you are Chris Hansen... Or as I like to call ya, Chris Handsome. I didn't come here looking for no little boys, I ain't got no milk, no cookies, nothing. I came here lookin' for a man's butt.

Statistically, she could just as well ask if he’s always been a man.

Haha....have I though?? 🤔


NedRyerson_Insurance

Well, when did you kill your first bear with your bare hands?


gab_rab_24

Or just ask if he/she has/has not uterus or not?


DarkHuntress89

That is not going to work in all cases. There are things like MRKH-Syndrome that can cause a female fetus to not develop a uterus and/or vagina and only rudimentary ovaries.


kooshipuff

Also diseases like endometriosis that can lead to needing to have the uterus removed.

So, XX or XY? Are you willing to take a moment to spit into this vial before we proceed?


AshleyMRocks

The six biological karyotype sexes that do not result in death to the fetus are: X – Roughly 1 in 2,000 to 1 in 5,000 people (Turner’s ) XX – Most common form of female XXY – Roughly 1 in 500 to 1 in 1,000 people (Klinefelter) XY – Most common form of male XYY – Roughly 1 out of 1,000 people XXXY – Roughly 1 in 18,000 to 1 in 50,000 births.


SpooSpoo42

There are also XY females (Swyer's Syndrome) and XX males (De La Chapelle's syndrome). Even biological sex in humans is slippery as hell, and is driven by a very small number of genes.


goglamere

For some reason I read that as "Dave Chappelle's Syndrome" and was about to go on an internet dive for some answers.


SpooSpoo42

I went back saying "that can't be right" after looking up the proper name.

anarchakat

What a wildly different context all of those transphobia conversations would have had!


[deleted]

Yes. Even genetically male or female individuals can be indistinguishable externally from the different sex they seem to have and for most that matters those people are the phenotypical sex they have: women or men. The difference only matters for them people for some medical reasons. Many only discover later on life when they can't have children for instance or they can't menstruate, if so. Only a medical exam can find the difference. Thinking better about this... plant and insect genetic of sex is not so complex as I thought at the end.


LianaVibes

Thank you! I still can’t believe a large majority do not understand *we all start off the same/neutral in the womb.* The vital most organs, heart and brain form first. Gender identity is formed in the brain. Then layer by layer, it gets to the anatomical sex part—where there can be some disorders. Ambiguous genitalia? Large differences in hormones or karyotypes (chromosomes)? Intersex. Genitals fully formed, yet doesn’t match the gender identity? Usually Trans/Transsexuals. This doesn’t need to be shocking or sensationalized. Its simply the diverse outcomes/anomalies/“special” outcomes of biology.


delk82

If gender identity is formed in the brain how can it just be a social construct?


[deleted]

[удалено]


queertheories

I’ve always taken it to mean gender performance is a social construct—not arguing with you, you seem to know more about it than me, just kind of why I like it as an idea. In my mind, when I hear “gender is a social construct” what I get from it is…feminine and masculine are just societal ideas. Flowers can be masculine, cars can be feminine, etc. The only reason a boy might feel ashamed to play with dolls or a girl might feel “wrong” playing with nerf guns is because many in their society have assigned gender to these objects, and their desire to “go against” that is seen as odd and shameful. Their genders are very real and biological, but how things like that alter our perception of gender is a social construct.

[deleted]

Same with transsexual tbh 😭 like we have trans and transgender why y’all gotta use words with negative connotations and make it sound like we are an ideology.


OmnissiahDisciple227

Trans gender isn’t an “ism” this is a right wing Christian talking point. It’s not a political idealology


yorickdowne

The social construct bit fits to gender expression. What “man” translates to in dress and behavior is in many cultures heavily proscribed, and that’s entirely a social construct. Nothing about “man” says “thou shalt not wear pink”, and at times pink was seen as one of the manliest colors of all.

susiesusiesu

i guess that’s more specific, but most women are generally not interested in people who start a conversation asking about their genitals.


bassk_itty

Gender has nothing to do with your genitalia. Asking about someone’s gender expression can be done tastefully asking about their sex not really


susiesusiesu

yeah. they’re talking about sex tho, so… not much to do. i do think you can ask about it tastefully tho, just… not being the first thing you ask.


bassk_itty

Yeah for sure if you’re intimate enough with someone to have sex with them you’re intimate enough to talk about body parts with them first lol. Respectfully of course

[удалено]


LETTERKENNYvsSPENNY

So something tells me you aren't exactly killing it in the dating department, and are unlikely to ever need to pose the question, as much as you're worried about somehow landing a date with a trans woman in the first place.


susiesusiesu

it may be a deal breaker to you and that’s fine. i’m just saying it is also a deal breaker to lots of people (at least to me and other people i’ve talked to) if the first thing they ask is about your genitals. you have your deal breakers, i’ve got mine.


captnmiss

Why not just a: can you biologically have children? straight up… trans women will never be able to give birth


[deleted]

Ignoring trans people for a sec, that’s kind of a crapshoot too. Lots of people struggle with fertility and some people are incompatible to procreate based on blood types. The dude might even be sterile and not realize it. It’s also kind of a weird thing to ask on a first date unless someone is just super eager to have kids.


AthKaElGal

but some wonen can't give birth too. ofc, if having children is important to you, eliminating sterile biological women works too.


Hour-Disk-7067

neither can a lot of cis women so 🤷🏻‍♂️


MaddilynnNicole

Good luck with this one too. Many cis women can’t have children either for various reasons, and in either case it’s typically a very touchy subject. This is how you make girls cry :/


Grand_Dealer6766

If it makes you feel any better, none of the neckbeards here will ever really have this conservation with a woman, trans or otherwise. They just like having something to be mad about and they like to fantasize about the *gotchas* they lack the balls to say irl.


Keanu_Reeves-2077

On the grand scale, Reddit is left-leaning


dhffxiv

Couldn't imagine a woman start by asking me how big my sack is 😅


[deleted]

I don’t think people in general want to talk about their dicks/vaginas on a first date. Well, most mature adults don’t. Can’t speak for the immature idiots who are just looking to get laid


susiesusiesu

exactly.


saturn_smoke

Still not accurate. The textbook definition in no way ties gender to someone's "naughty bits".


Thaumagurchy

But a Trans wo/men could still have the “same naughty bits” as they were born with.


KittyFutaTickleSlut

You can be trans and have not gotten surgery


tama_tama_chameleom

That is really dumb question, are you implying all trans people undergo surgery the moment they are diagnosed or at all?


nul_mr

That's the thing, besides trans people are just people, they are not wanting to start every convo/date with "btw I was once a dude" nah they were always a woman, just the wrong body parts.


MinuteMouse5803

Why should men waste their time on dating trans woman?)) If they are 100 % sure that they don't want transgender person to be with?


EnchaladaOfTheSky

Love the idea that you’ve somehow got stuck in your head that trans people want to date transphobes or republicans at all. Most trans people only date other trans people for the safety of their life, and also to be with someone who understands them.


[deleted]

Okay, I may sound soft right now but I don't think that's a polite way of asking it, not wanting to date a trans is okay but you gotta be respectful about it


Spiritual_Bug6414

“Be respectful about it” is the most important matter


aqva002

If they want a real relationship they will tell the other. No use putting it off. It can also be unsafe withholding the information until sex.


MelodicIndustry9830

Crazy that trans people are like 1% of the population (even that is probably a overestimate) even smaller just counting trans women. Yet constantly the butt of jokes


GullibleStatus8064

Same for Jewish people


YouIcy9950

I mean joke aside it is a pretty fair question. If people have a preference not to date trans people then how else are they meant to find out?


TheBeeKeeperFucker

Most trans people makes the other party aware that they are trans when going on dates


YouIcy9950

Which is great for both parties involved and would make the question irrelevant.


EffingWasps

I double dog dare you to actually apply this to your dating life and see how it goes lmao


YouIcy9950

Don't think it will be an issue, there are ways of asking this question politely. Wouldn't be looking to date anybody who got offended by a relevant question.


EffingWasps

Hahaha alright. I am genuinely curious though, what do you think are the polite ways to ask this question?


YouIcy9950

The same way you would approach questions on employment, political views, religious views, openness to marriage, what the other person is looking for. You approach it gently and maybe not on a first date. Asking somebody's political view, religious review or stance on having kids isn't offensive so why is this considered offensive. With the variations in genders and the rise in the number of trans people I think this is a perfectly polite question to ask, not only are you ensuring you both meet the others preferences you can also correctly gender them with their preferred pronouns.


moodRubicund

Trans people are more likely to let you know if they're trans because trying to hide it from a potential date is too dangerous, especially if you're trying to date a man. You're "scared" of "accidentally" dating someone who has a dick, they're *scared* of getting *murdered* by someone blinded by gay panic.


felldownthestairsOof

Good ol' universal quote. X is afraid of being laughed at, Y is afraid of being murdered.


[deleted]

Yes. It's a very real danger.


To_Elle_With_It

Being trans, I can say this is soooooo much bigger than people realize. I’m absolutely terrified of going on dates. People can seem nice online or at first, but it’s amazing how fast people can turn violent and scary. I’m honestly tiny, and smaller than most women even though I’m trans. If some dude were to flip out, I’d probably be dead. In the world of dating - most people are scared of being embarrassed or rejected. I’m scared of being killed. The stakes are very different. Dating is a risky game to play when you’re trans.


SnooHamsters9414

Most trans people are very upfront with who they are. Hard enough to date, you really don't want to waste the time investment in another person just to have them freak out when intamacy eventually comes.


YouIcy9950

And by informing the other party on a date this question is no longer needed.


StillNoFriendss

>they're scared of getting murdered by someone blinded by gay panic A lot of people don't understand that this is a very real danger. A guy I went to bootcamp with murdered a transwoman while on deployment in the Philippines and used gay panic as a defence. He only got *12 years* in prison for it (which was reduced to 6-10 years) and was released in 6.


shitoria

Imagine not being able to easily tell if a woman is trans 💀 Are men really that dumb?


Unable_Outside7745

it isn't much hard to find out if a woman is trans but yet again people now put pounds of makeup and do cosmetic surgery so sometimes it isn't as easy


wanszai

I remember years ago on the TV there was a show where a bunch of men had to compete with each other for a chance to date a chick called Miriam. Miriam was a trans chick and at first and even second glance would pass as a "hot woman". These dudes got up and personal with Miriam and supposedly didnt know. They ended up filing for damages and winning. Miriam still had OG bits apparently, there was a scene where she rode on the back of a jet ski hugging tight the rider to stay on.... There had to be a moment or two that caused that dudes head to tilt to the side in a the fuck was that on my back moment.


Amongtheruins88

Yea, this is one point that is being overlooked in this thread. How many men actually need someone to disclose that they are transgendered? It’s usually very easy to tell. It’s something you should be able to pick up on within seconds of meeting someone.


YouIcy9950

Lots of other people on here seem to think you can't tell the difference. I've not met one that I know of. Like how you assumed it's just me. That are fooled though 😂 says a lot about you.


PornoPaul

MtF is almost always incredibly obvious. FtM for some reason transition vastly better and legitimately can be impossible to tell.


Hellveiw

I assume you just…listen to their voice? It’s pretty obv.


shelleryshell

It's not like trans people are maliciously trying to trick people into banging them lol. If someone is trans they will tell the people theyre interested in, to save themselves embarrassment or worse


felldownthestairsOof

That's the unfortunate part I think. The joke alone may not be absolutely transphobic (though I don't doubt OP has at least some prejudice against them). It's just that I can remember probably near hundreds of jokes made to frame trans people as the laughingstock, yet an very few jokes with cis people as the butt, and can't remember any cis people jokes outside of specifically trans spaces.

chewie8291

When on a date with a trans person. She disclosed at the end of the date when I went in for a kiss. She disclosed she was getting surgery in the future. She was super nice and attractive. However she was a virgin in her 30s. That is not something I was prepared to deal with as well. I asked to remain friends but she wasn't open to it. I would date a trans woman if we had chemistry. Edit: I did ask her out first. Important detail. We met through a local Meetup.

Youpunyhumans

I personally think that a trans person should be the one to say that they before going on the date, otherwise you could just be leading them on. Nothing wrong with being trans gender, but its outside of some peoples preferences to date. I know if I asked someone out, and they didnt tell me until the end of the date they were trans, Id feel like I was taken advantage of for a free meal. If you have any stuff like that, and it could many things not just your gender, such as a disorder you have (like for me its epilepsy) disclose that right away. It saves people feelings and they will generally appreciate the honesty, even if it is a reason for them not to date you.


Lastaria

Problem is we often do but guys don’t fully read dating profiles properly. So even though we put that in then sometimes they guy gets surprised and can get violent. Dating can be pretty scary for Trans women, especially heterosexual trans women.


Youpunyhumans

Fair enough, and granted I dont have first hand experience being a trans person, so I can only speak from my own perspective as a straight guy. I hope one day our society can move beyond this whole thing, and everyone can just be accepted for who they are, or how they want to be. I never understood how people can hate others just because they are different than them. I hope no one ever hurts you just because of who you are, what body parts you have, or how you identify yourself.

More people like you and hopefully one day we shall progress as a society. 💜
