To reiterate, if you’re a man, to refer to and think of yourself as a woman, is not similar to referring to and thinking of yourself as a Liam, Willian or Benjamin, that’s a poor analogy, because names like Liam, Willian or Benjamin are arbitrary, nondescript.
What it’s really similar to, is referring to and thinking of yourself as an extrovert, when you’re an introvert, or an empath, when you’re a sociopath, or as having Asperger’s or Down’s, when you don’t have Asperger’s or Down’s, or as a doctor, lawyer, child or African American, when you’re none of these things.
Not only are you not actually one of these things, try as you may, you will never be able to behave like them, because behaving like them would require you to have the same biology as them, or it would require you to have a degree if you want to be a doctor or lawyer.
And while some people are better, actors than others, imitation pales in comparison to the genuine article, and while the scientific jury is still kind of out, as the study of brain and gender is still “in its infancy”, the evidence available to us so far suggests generally speaking, so called ‘transsexuals’ have sort of androgynous brains, not a wholly female brain in a wholly male body, like the progressive media would have us believe, and again, that’s generally speaking, some fauxsexuals mightn’t have brains like the sex they believe they are at all.
Masculinity and femininity aren’t meaningless categories, they refer to thousands of physiological, neurological and psychological traits, and men always in some cases, and generally in others have masculine traits, and women feminine traits, because masculinity and femininity are, in the main, biologically determined, which’s not to say socialization doesn’t play a role, it does.
But even here, fauxsexuals are never going to be socialized like the opposite sex is, because people are never going to think of and treat them exactly like they treat the opposite sex, and also physiology, your body, determines how you experience the world, and so your experiences are never going to be the same as the experiences of the opposite sex, and so neither is your psychology, because experience also partly determines psychology, it’s the other side of the coin.
And disguising, referring to and thinking of yourself as something you’re not, when that something is of profound importance, like your sex is, is wrong, it’s mentally ill, deceptive, and we’re all mentally ill, or deceived if we play along with this, masquerade.
If you pretend to yourself and others you’re a cop, doctor, lawyer or the opposite sex, it’s wrong, because if you’re good at it, some people mightn’t realize you’re pretending, they’re going to have certain expectations of you, and through no fault of their own, at some point these expectations are going to be thwarted when reality intervenes.
I think there’s been a comparison of fauxsexuals to subcultures like punk or goth and cosplay.
The difference here is subcultures have nothing to do with biology, one, and two, cosplay is make believe, and the people who do it know it’s make believe, they don’t do it 24/7, but if they actually believed they were video game or anime characters, we would tell them to, cut that shit out, and rightfully so, because it’s mentally ill.
Fauxsexuals, knowingly or unknowingly, are, charlatans, frauds, hucksters, imposters, most of them are mentally ill, but some of them are probably downright liars, trying to pull one over the world.
