Dress with a beard is unusual, to be fair.

Was about to upvote, then realized it was Redpanels. Which is made by an actual nazi.

So basically we're all just watching some guy masturbate while winning imaginary arguments inside his head.

Welcome to imgur.

... What? Clearly s/he is wearing the dress BECAUSE gender is a social construct and wearing a dress is a part of that construction!

Cringey.

This is so, so willfully stupid.

Is the dad's opinion meant to be satire, or is the cartoonist genuinely that dumb?
SirCularity
Everything is easy to refute when you grossly misunderstand it

So, you grossly misunderstand the point?

I hate everything about this art style.
ugotclowned
Well, he had to have some way to communicate his asinine viewpoint in the laziest way possible.
mysteryghost
I always get a bad feeling about the comic when it has an art style like this. Looking the other Redpanel comics I wan't wrong.
DersitePhantom
This completely misses the point. It being a "social construct" means that it doesn't objectively matter either way, so do what feels right.

Dad for the win!!!!!

I took some time and wrote down the source: http://redpanels.com/

I want to upvote source, but can't upvote a link to that crap. :/

You don't need to, I only posted the link for the lazy, because I know the..."struggle".

wtf...the dad proved her point. If wearing dresses is also a social construct, then there's no point in forcing her not to wear dresses.
Rawcal
But dads point was that they are silly, which the social construct status does not affect at all.
ramenbrothersandsisters
No, his unintentionally made point was that they're only silly when they're used in a way that he does not like.

A lot of people don't worry about diffence because it's the hardest part of the game. Look at the NBA in recent years.

Did you at least manage to do it with the same degree of style as that defenseman?

I mean, reddish coral base with a creamy yellow lace trim IS a bit silly.
goawaypleasethankyou
It's more like a pale mustard lace trim. It gets worse.
Chocofreak13
Yeahhh, that's a crusty Heinz colour. So yes, the dress is silly. Son, you can do much better.

How about you just let everyone be what they want, and mind your own business?

Only if SJWs do it first. Let people think what they want and stop trying to police thoughts and opinions.

As a trans female myself, it isn't just about clothes. We're wired differently. We face a man's world with a woman's ideals. We feel in 1/?

if you're reading this and wondering if you should read the whole thread, you should.
JediMasterGartHalth
So your telling me if I did something wrong to you, your response would be, "I'm fine."?
JediMasterGartHalth
And then you'll bring it up down the road when you want to win an argument?
ChickenVegetas
different ways, communicate, love, cherish, things differently than a man would. Because of this we're mocked for the things we hold 2/?
dottedglass
So what you're saying is that a man can't be a man AND love/feel/communicate differently. You reinforce the very stereotypes that hurt you.
ChickenVegetas
That's not what I meant at all. I never said a man can't love the same things. What I'm saying is men and women communicate differently.
dottedglass
... instead of standing up to them by being a man and saying out loud that it's okay to love/feel/communicate the way you do. I've been[...]

... yes. It is a social construct. And she wants you to call her your daughter. You're literally making her point, rektard
NotWelcomehere
then by that logic there is no such thing as "trans-ness" just people. Nah? Idk the whole thing reeks of incomplete data to me and has 4ever
mynameisnotalice
As long as gender is embedded in the society as a construct there will be transgenders. Transsexual is another thing, that's about the body.
llamamushroom
That's a common misconception - transsexual is an old term for what is now transgender. Part of being trans is thinking your body is wrong
mynameisnotalice
Having transsexuals and transgenders in my social group, I was explained there is a difference. F.e. my transwoman friend *hates*her body(1)
mynameisnotalice
and will get it changed. My transman friend identifies as a man, but doesn't particularly hate his body. He will get rid of his breasts (2)
Placeboy
Different genders are treated differently, whether they should be or not. That's why trans people want to present as the one that fits them.
vidyagaem
i can understand the whole trans shit with being male or female, but the demilovatosexual stuff isn't a gender at all.
MotionOfTheOcean
Uh, and what does that made-up word has to do with anything on this post? .-.
vidyagaem
just on the topic of people making genres that fit themselves, as the comment was talking about homeslice
NotWelcomehere
Oh god I'm so sorry I asked a question people, jesus, pardon me for not censoring myself and just not getting new info lol
llamamushroom
Mate... Look at your post and tell me that's phrased as an honest question
NotWelcomehere
might try to reckon that against its current paradigm of genders and their roles into however many characters we have on one comment. 2/3
NotWelcomehere
I'm really at a loss, I'm sorry you don't like the way it's phrased, it's hard to fit the question of self-identification and how society1/2
NotWelcomehere
wouldn't male and female just be a spectrum embodied by different people in different measure most being predominantly one or the other?5/5
NotWelcomehere
But I was legitimately asking a question about said identity and the idea that there is a default human (genderless Man) and if that's so3/4
Porecomesis
Anyone here with a gender studies degree or something? I'm genuinely curious to hear a professional opinion on this.
dasklaus
Not a degree in gender studies, but trans man here. He's literally making her point for her. Considering dresses feminine is a social (1/2)
dasklaus
construct, yes, that's why she uses them to signal how she wishes to be perceived.
MotionOfTheOcean
Also point of pointing gender out as social construct, is not that social constructs per se are evil, but that they can be changed.
MotionOfTheOcean
And noope, I am not having gender degree either, just interested in topic.
CottonCandiJenni
Yeah it's not about a dress "validating" the identity is the key. Dresses don't make the person, but that doesn't mean you can't dress 1/2
CottonCandiJenni
in a manner which socially suits your identity. Just don't get caught in the trap of thinking you -have- to do so.
dottedglass
Sometimes I feel like "Having to do so" is the precise reason why some trans are trans.
CottonCandiJenni
No degree, but what would you think it would add? It's a dumb comic for a simplistic argument. Not much to really say on it.
Porecomesis
It'd expand the argument. Gender as a social construct, dresses appearing feminine... fascinating stuff. I'd like more details.
CottonCandiJenni
But what would the degree add? I've never spoken with anyone with a degree in gender studies, but there's still lots of good info/talks.
Porecomesis
Asking for a degree was more for the sake of finding someone well-informed on the topic rather than any random jackass who's too emotional.
CottonCandiJenni
not meant to be "against" you or anything.
CottonCandiJenni
Ah, fair enough. I hope I'm not coming across as aggressive. This was partly just to get more of an idea of what you were seeking, it's 1/2
