@light @interfluidity Per presidential decree, all humans are female now. Let's see how that will play out. I guess homoerotic relationships will, per definition, increase significantly.

@admitsWrongIfProven @interfluidity

>(d)  “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

Are you referring to the factoid that everyone is technically female in the womb?

Is that the case "at conception" or some time in to the pregnancy?

A simple fertilised egg doesn't have any organs at all yet, let alone reproductive ones.

@light @interfluidity I was, and if i understand correctly you are arguing that (by us law) all humans are neither male nor female?

This reminds me of futurama, Zap Brannigan will detest the US now - "With enemies, you know where they stand, but with neutrals? Who knows!"

@admitsWrongIfProven @interfluidity One could argue that the sexes are still differentiated at that stage by genetics. But in that case why not just use genetics directly?

@light @interfluidity Because it is trolling, not earnest policy to solve a problem. That's why i'm joking about it, one of the two ways to deal with trolling.

@admitsWrongIfProven @interfluidity Are you sure they are not sincere but stupid?

@light @interfluidity The sincere part is trying to hurt people, but that does not mean that the train of thought is on track.

I'd compare it to insulting someone by calling them a random thing. The intent to insult will come across, transporting the hostility, even if the insult used is absurd.

My reasoning for being sure of that is that it does not remotely begin to solve any problem, even when including "people being anxious about others gender".
