how to get my beloved family member to back off the bioessentialist gender bullshit just a little.
#maybe i was being annoying and defensive and abrasive#but in the past they've said 'my aunt has strong masculine energy she needs a feminine man to balance her out'#like that's a normal statement. so.#forgive me for being on guard when ur like 'maybe biology explains human gender' bestie i can't do this#i'll try to calmly understand her perspective and then. politely.#rehash the whole 'pls dont debate queer topics with very transphobic people while im there it's actually a huge stressor for me'.#'and sorry for being snippy. Maybe i misinterpreted your words. It’s not like I’m an expert in this topic’#FUCK! That is the mature thing to do. I will do it#Reactive anger alone won’t get people off the bioessentialist train! Unfortunately.#But it just rlly sucks when you meet a lot of people who have different genders and you love them and then you listen to someone you love#say shit like ‘boys are more rowdy as kids bc they are biologically like that’ like what am I supposed to DO.#How do I EXPLAIN the red flags! Anyways.
