There's only two. What's not to accept? You can write your name in the snow, (cursive)..not printing. Printing, nowadays takes "educated" skill. Either you can , or you can't! I know a "cop", that can't read "handwriting"... Let us talk about, "standards".

Looks at you.


Cheers.

Of course there are two biological sexes (three if you include intersex). Gender is a social construct.
Why do you think we call country or farmer girls "tomboy"?

Hyperbole much?

How so? Transgenders are one of the most at risk groups out there. In fact there has been an uptick in murders over the past few months.

I'd be interested in seeing actual background information on those crimes. My gut says that violence happens when they pretend they are the gender they are not, and upset some drunk guy who thinks he's about to get lucky. If I'm right I'd call that alcohol violence, not hate crime.

Is that global, or USA? I have a very hard time believing that people who think they are transexual are actively being hunted down and killed by premeditation in the USA.

Not my fault that the world has been constantly changing.

The ideals of masculinity and femininity are social constructs. Gender is male and female, and those are absolutes in terms of sex and biology.

Tomboys are still female gender.

p.s. What country/farm girls have you met? Here in Kansas and Missouri they are not automatically the same thing as tomboys.

At least you agree to the first part of the definition. BRAVO!

So why use that word? Why not tomgirls?

Sighs. I didn't mean all of them. Anyway I've met many women who act like boys, even look like one.

Because our women are more badass than the city's men are...

I am the only one who calls them tomboys?

LOL I am sure. I wouldn't want to mess with some of them.

See? it's possible to agree on somethings. Now you just need to work out the rest of the truth.

So why use that word? Why not tomgirls?

Because the word is tomboy, not tomgirl. Language.

I'm more curious to why we don't call feminine men 'janegirls' or something like that.

Sighs. I didn't mean all of them. Anyway I've met many women who act like boys, even look like one.

I'm betting they all weren't all from the country or a farm. Elaboration, Language, Context...

Why don't you start that trend? Maybe they'll include that in the dictionary.

Sorry for not being clear. I thought it was implied that I meant SOME farmer girls (and of course some who aren't but still act like men and some drive big trucks).

Ok that one made me laugh hard. Thank goodness I didn't have beer in mouth. Gave you a star.
