So we’re all female. Neat!

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 1 points 2 days ago

I've always wondered what it's like.

Turns out, (according to the US government) I was experiencing it all along.

No, embryos don't produce eggs.

What about people who produce neither?

[–] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

They usually handwave and claim "they don't count" because they can't reproduce, assuming that somehow means they can be ignored.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 4 points 2 days ago

i don't think embryos produce any reproductive cells right away so that handwave would have to cover... everyone

I guess the nicest thing I could say about this is that I'm glad that if they're going to be evil, at least they're bad at it.

I recommend everyone visit the DMV as soon as possible to change their license. It's an order from the commander in chief.

Now that I think of it: every DMV should be only be able to issue licenses with a female designation. Facts and law suites don't care about your feelings, snow flakes.

This is either AI slop. Ignorant because they think babies are made by god and immediately have genitals. Deliberately as anti science as possible to muddy things further.

Probably all 3.

[–] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yup. At conception, I'm prettybsure there's really fuck all going on - plus, how's it getting measured? Most people aren't that sure of their date of conception!

So then what? We look at the organs at birth? (Gender=sex)

[–] festnt@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

they just need a time machine to travel back and test which gametes the single cell is producing. just wait until they discover it takes quite a bit until those are produced

unless they meant to say at birth, cause at conception it makes no sense. so what the heck happens to anyone who has both genitalia? what about people who can't produce gametes? they have no idea what they're doing lmao

also what were those definitions before?

Is... is that the actual wording?

[–] CubitOom@infosec.pub 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Holy shit. Surely those who drafted this realize the importance of wording in legal documents. What an egregious error.

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why would you think that? These lines were written by fascists to appeal to morons. Proper wording only matters for those of us that live in reality.

[–] verdare@beehaw.org 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Honestly, a part of me is wondering if this is a case of malicious compliance. Like, did one of these evil motherfuckers offload the task of drafting this onto someone with a human soul?

[–] spujb@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 days ago

i was literally just thinking that! it feels like some trolling staffer(s) with a knowledge of biology got a jab in.

[–] batmaniam@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fuck you I'm a woman owned business now and also my DMV can't issue liscences designated male without proof of.... exogenesis? Parthogenisis? Some kind of nobel winning genesis?

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Um. I am a trans woman and this deeply affects me as well. I believe you misread my intention here. What I said was far from a compliment.

[–] batmaniam@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

ah shit. Bad wording. I'm sorry I didn't mean for it to come off that way, just upset and didn't mean to minimize. I can't do much, but I can be a pain in the ass at the DMV tomorrow and force a case. Not much blowback on someone like me.

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz -1 points 2 days ago

Good news for you: embros don't produce gametes at all. Everyone is now legally agender. You can refuse to issue female licences too.

[–] GammaGames@beehaw.org 1 points 2 days ago

HA, good one!

[–] Vaggumon@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

Republicans showing once again their cognitive prowess.

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

For fucks sake.

For fucks sake.

[–] herorobb@beehaw.org 1 points 2 days ago

Someone has to do something. A lot of someones. All at the same time. All across the world. We have to do something about this. It's too far. We cannot let things go on like this. This will not stand.

[–] Ton@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

The culture war is refuelled, so we can be distracted from the grand scale theft by the oligarchs.

[–] vzq@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

It’s the gamete crowd, but adapted for the crowd that can’t spell “gamete”.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Maybe I'm blazed off my rocker, but isn't that an approximate definition you'd get from a biology prof. if they're in a hurry? I swear I heard something like that in one genetics class many moons ago. (I know the actual quote is probably wrong, but the rest is meh ok yeah sure.)
