A lot of male sexuality is also constructed around employing hierarchies of womanhood as trophies, to prove their own worth and engage in a process of gendering themselves through access to womens’ bodies. Within that framework, some hold more currency and others (transwomen) can actually subvert heteronormative male sexualities. The opinions and shared norms of sexuality among peers, performed on womens’ bodies, plays a huge part in constructing their sexuality as well. You can imagine where transwomen fall on this scale.

All these words appear to be English and I consider myself a fluent English speaker but... none of these sentences make any sense at all.

Quantum singularity?
I couldn’t read all that nonsense.

[Popman]

LOL.... There is no more fitting graphic for this thread......

[servo1969]

Seriously. It’s like a Scientologist discussing how to get ‘clear.’

With all humility...it needed to e done.

[Focault's Pendulum]

Loosely translated I think it says "I aced my gender studies course."

[Army Air Corps]

What, no discussion of hermaphrodites? Is DU Hermaphrophobic?

[Army Air Corps]

BINGO!

[servo1969]

“I’m a trans woman and I never had any interest whatsoever in dating men. Is it transphobic for a lesbian to not date a trans woman or is it transphobic for a straight woman or gay man to not date a trans man?”

Who is in the what now?

[doorgunner69]

I know I am a hopeless Neanderthal knuckle-dragger, but WTH is a "transwoman"?

A fag pretending to be female, or a female pretending to be male.

Either way, yeeccchhhh! Why on earth would you want to, other than as a sick political stunt?

[Mercat]

These people are nuts. They need to get a life.

[AlexW]

Geesh...I need a queer dictionary to even try to understand any of this.

[mikrofon]

There’s also the fact that most men dont even have enough literacy of our bodies and our lives to even know who we are and if they are attracted to us. And dont attempt to do so because of cisnormativity

Obama had a Big Cis, but [s]he wasn't NormaL ...

[mikrofon]

what are you doing to create & not participate in a society that
shames & degrades the concept of desire around transbodies?

Trans.bod.ies!

I had the same problem, and I, too, am fluent in English, both written and spoken. I had to look up "cissexual," and found that it means a person whose "gender" matches the "sex" that person was "assigned" at birth. So, apparently, a man who believes he is male is "cissexual." (And what's with this "sex assigned at birth" nonsense? I thought it was based on the plumbing, not some sort of coin toss.)

None of this helped my understanding, because I'm still don't know the difference between one's "gender" and one's "sex," and thus remain confused by "transgendered" and "transsexuals," and where cross-dressers fit into all this. No doubt this is because I didn't major in "gender studies," and have a real life in the real world with a real job dealing with real people with real problems.
