    Hold up, are you saying that physical biology determines what gender someone can have? That looks like it’s exactly what you’re saying and that’s pretty messed up.

      That’s not what I’m saying at all. BORG DO NOT EXIST. THEY ARE FROM A TV SHOW.

        Please just look at what you’re saying. Screaming that someone’s gender doesn’t exist is not a good look no matter how much you think or feel that they aren’t valid. TV shows, art, are how we share ideas, and gender is an idea. Someone saw something that resonated with them and helped them understand who they are, and you are saying that’s wrong. Can you not see how that is messed up? How can you possibly justify invalidating someone to this extent? You could have wrote an essay by now, why all the effort to say someone’s gender isn’t “actually” their gender??

          😑 are you trying to tell me that Borg exist, and that mind-melding sex is real? Are you in reality?

            I’m trying to tell you that it is a shitty thing to do to go around saying “your gender is too silly for you to really have.”

              I didn’t say that at all. I’m saying Borg is not a gender. Borg is a parasitic hivemind that commits genocide regularly, and ensnares thousands into it’s abusive cult. Again, BORG is not a gender. It is not. You can surely identify as a Borg. Go ahead. But by the definition of gender, Borg is not one. I bet next you’re gonna say Nazi is a gender. Borg was written to basically be space Nazis.

        No, mechoselachia is right. You’re saying I can’t identify as my gender because I have the wrong biology.
