| If they have XY chromosomes, they should be made to go in the mens stalls, amirite? I don't care how they look - if it's got a Y chromosome, it's a man, even if it has given birth. Women shouldn't have to put up with people with Y chromosomes in their bathrooms. [conspicuous lack of suggestion that... |

| No, it's not "fear of the penis monster" at all. I've got a penis so why would I fear it? If someone has a penis then they are male, regardless of how they dress or "present" themselves. The same is true for a female who dresses as a man and takes hormones, if she still have a va... |

LoveNotHate wrote: She presents as female, plays on girl's school sports teams, addressed as female, so the body is seen as female.
Except that she has a penis, which is not "seen as female." |

| Apologies, you didn't make that very clear. Given that you responded to someone who was talking about people with hormone conditions, and you have previously referred to cisgendered people as "he/him/she/her", I assumed you referring to transgendered people specifically as "it".... |

| I used the term "it" because I was referring to biological entities of any species, not specifically humans. Then there are a few more relevant facts; e.g., • Not all species have sexes. • Not all species which do have sexes use the XY sex-determination system. There are others . Again ir... |

| (also please don't refer to us as 'it', that's kinda dehumanising. We are people too. If you don't want to use gendered pronouns, use 'they'.) (also since when did you develop the ability to see people's chromosomes? plus there are more than just XX and XY - there are many intersex conditions such ... |

| Biological Male = XY chromosomes Biological Female = XX Chromosomes Sorry, not even close. Far too many top supermodels who are not transgender have been XY but have a condition called CAIS, where their androgen receptors are completely nonfunctional. In utero, since they can't react to testosteron... |

| I was subjected to a totally unprovoked verbal attack, and was threatened with physical violence, within a fortnight of joining this forum. I was not happy with how the situation was dealt with, which is why I no longer post here. I've made an exception for this one post. |

| A diagnosis is a diagnosis, no matter who makes it. I'm sure that the majority of people who suspect or believe that they are on the spectrum would like to have an "official" diagnosis but there are a whole load of different reasons that can prevent some people from getting one. For a star... |

Aspergers and driving UK
The operative phrase is.... You must tell DVLA if you have Asperger syndrome and it affects your driving. If it doesn't effect your driving you don't need to inform them. |
