Political Reality versus Mainstreet

[Tom B]

But think about this if you would please. Are you a man because your brain tells you you're a man, or because you have a dick? Are you a women because your brain tells you you're are a woman, or because you have a vagina? This is a serious, not a frivolous, question.

Frankly, the evidence is building that our sexuality is determined by something other than body parts alone.

Is it better to use 19th century knowledge or 21st century knowledge when making these decisions?

A person's sex is determined by their DNA.

A person's sex is determined by their DNA.

That may be true. It does seem to be true that one's physiology is largely determined by DNA alone. If you want to define ones sex as determined by one's physiology you'll be able to get by as long as you don't try to apply such a simple definition to real people. If sex = physiology, then there is something else we can call sexuality. What seems to be the case is that one's sex is not always consistent with one's sexuality. And have you considered that both sex and sexuality may be determined by DNA! But does that matter? What would seem to matter most is that one can live their life according to their sexuality, regardless of their physiology.
