It’s a spectrum so there are two extremes, you’re either at one extreme the 100% pure male or the other the 100% pure female. There can only be one person at either end. Therefore unless you, particularly, are one of the extremes (and let’s be honest those two people have no clue it’s them) you are on the spectrum somewhere in between. Meaning you are a tiny bit trans.
I think that’s a false dichotomy though, because that assumes gender standards and presentations are universally consistent, when in practice it is often highly dependent on social context and individual perception.
What defines someone as masculine in the US is not 1:1 with the concept of masculinity in China, or France, or Kenya, for instance. On top of that, one’s personal understanding of masculinity and femininity likely differs slightly (or greatly) from the general standards of the society around them.
The easiest concept of gender is to just trust people when they tell you who they are. It’s entirely an internal, personal understanding of identity, and it’s mutable.
That’s interesting. I have to think more about this but it certainly makes sense, I certainly don’t feel 100% pure male based on… many things. Thank you for explaining.
