Can someone explain the meme? I’m a little slow.
Human embryos (and probably others) start out female, and grow the male parts a fee weeks later. There is probably someone lurking who can give better details but that’s the gist of it. Thats why men have nipples.
You pretty much nailed it.
Also, it gets much more complicated than that; at least 2% of humans are intersex, meaning they’re a mix of male and female, everywhere from outward presentation (rare) to chromosomal (more common).
It’s not just gender that’s a spectrum: sex is, too. I said ‘at least’ because it’s possible for people to go their whole lives without realising they’re intersex. 2% is huge: if you know 100 people, statistically 2 of them are intersex. Most of us know more than that.
The ‘only two genders’ thing is biologically bullshit. Biology is never cut and dried.
eta: for reference, I have a disorder that’s been in the spotlight lately – Ehlers-Danlos – and you’ve probably at least heard of it. You’ve likely talked to someone who has it recently. It occurs in 1 in 20,000 people. Again, roughly 1 in 50 have intersex traits. I wish this had the visibility it deserves. It’s exceedingly normal.
And a scrotum seam
And my axe!
Omg is my seam meant to be a…
That’s right, you have a scrotussy.
Your penis is an enlarged clitoris and your testicles are ovaries that fell out.
Not if i have something to say about it and i do! I will undergo gender confirmation surgery to fix that!
Awesome! Thanks for explaining.
Basically, testosterone is one hell of a drug.
The He-Man series back in the 80s always ended with little moral quips, so this is mimicking that.
The fact is that all fetuses start off assuming female, and then the presence of certain chromosomes trigger male anatomy.
Hence all males being trans if life starts at conception, as at X week development shifts to generate the male oriented organs.
At least that’s my understanding of this meme…
Thanks for the explanation! That makes more sense.
Dropped the bomb and left.
No, that’s Ultra Magnus. Wrong '80s cartoon character.
