Please tell me what the concept of gender was like in other societies. Be it Medieval Europe or Imperial China or whatever society you are familiar with.

Please provide me documents. I may take my time to research them.

Leslie Feinberg's Transgender Liberation: A Movement Whose Time Has Come is an accessible entry point to this. It is available here and here in full.

I have a genuine question that I don't think I can phrase in a way that won't make me sound like a jackass: why not have started with this instead of after an entire thread's worth of claims and assertions to prove you don't actually know what you are talking about?

I had asked you guys to prove me wrong from the very first comment. Unfortunately, the answers I received are a bit unconvincing.

Maybe the document you provide can change my world view, but I must take my time to read it first.
