The whole trans* movement really passed you by, didn't it?

[(Anonymous)]

Well no.

Trans is about gender.

But the word female has a definition: of or denoting the sex that can bear offspring or produce eggs, distinguished biologically by the production of gametes (ova) that can be fertilized by male gametes.

It's mostly based on anatomy/physiology, not societal roles (the way gender is).

Animals have sex but not gender. Animals are male or female. (Or hermaphroditic. Or have no sex at all depending on the animal). But they're not men or women.

I was under the impression trans was about people who want to switch gender (hence the changing of pronouns).

But when it comes to words like female, it doesn't really work. I mean, if I'm running a clinical trial, it's not gonna fly if I try to run it only with males and transwomen. Or females and transmen. I have to use males and females to see the effects on both sexes.

Or am I mistaken here?

[feotakahari]

Being trans, or any other form of genderqueer, connects to how you present in a social context. (That's not the only implication, of course, but it's the relevant one here.) We're talking about a society with additional genders and additional gender roles. If omegas can be translated at all into our gendered terms, then for societal purposes, they'd be closest to "male."

(Omegaverse writers, please don't link me your fic in which the MC identifies as female and is biologically a male omega. I don't care!)
