I'm starting to notice that you operate on some weird sort of circular reasoning but I can't really identify it.
1. That's stupid. If it wasn't for gender then there would be no "she" and no "he". There would be no sexuality, and no masculine/feminine. These things ARE real, even if they are "constructed" and "man-made". Do I need to explain to you that the computer you are using is real again?
2. To most people, there is a lot more to life than mating potential. There is a lot more to their identities than what they want to ******** and have babies with. My gender identity has to do with my understanding of my very own body, not my role in "mating". Besides, I'm gay anyway. I wouldn't be able to impregnate my boyfriend regardless. So that mating role is pointless.
3. Fortunately that is not relevant to our current existence. I don't care about "universal significance" because as it stands now we are very insignificant anyway.

2. Yup. But not within the realm of assigned sex.
3. My point exactly.
I'm not arrogant and I don't think I'm the norm. I just think so many people waste time trapped within the confines of some idea thought up by some insignificant species that lives on some tiny little planet somewhere out in space. Our ideas of gender change, and like it or not your ideas about yourself change depending on your culture. Maybe if you were born 100 years earlier or later you would think differently about yourself. Neither of us will never know.
