37 wow that's a bit too much imo. And some of them sound very redundant. But honestly I'm all for people finding their gender identity and finding others like that, but with 37 combinations, good luck finding one.

Am I genderfluid because I wear makeup and skirts sometimes? Legit question because I'm not sure and people know about this here. I just think I'm a guy who likes to be feminine and play with things like that sometimes.

I'm glad they're doing this. Some days i identify as a Male, and some others as a Man. Now i finally have both options available.

I agree with the general message of what they're trying to do, which is make everyone feel accepted in the app. I think it would make far more sense to market this as "Tinder updates its gender options to accommodate everyone".

For my thoughts on gender vs sex, I think there's male, female and nonbinary, where the latter catches all that do not fall into the first two. There is no need for ten million subdivisions, or getting rid of M/F, because it's biology.

I encourage everyone to be who they want to be, but we don't need to be creating new labels like clockwork.

Also, some of the replies I've read are disgustingly transphobic, people are really showing their age....

Totally support people having options like this to identify with.  That being said, two things (and I'm trying to be brief so what I'm saying may not encapsulate every detail):

1) Since we are still using the binary of man/woman; male/female...I'd suggest a general shift of the mind, body and spirit towards androgyny (which is kind of a synthesis of that binary).  It seems kind of impossible to radically break away from it without becoming a hot mess (which would be okay too but people unfortunately like labels so why not shift towards androgynous identities?  Or a general "queer-ness"?  Or fluidity/flexibility?)

2) While it is awesome that social media has finally jumped on these identities--it seems to fall flat.  What "real world" impact does it truly have aside from one's online presentation of the self?  And, of course, these capitalist companies are out for that "Money Honey" :stalkga:so their intention seems a bit inauthentic/disingenuous to me.  

Anyway, just wanted to share my take.  Have a great day, GGD! :hug:

This is getting too far, the question should be :

I was born with :

- A penis

- A vagina

- Both (hermaphrodite, 0.0001% of the population)

Nope, sex =/= gender! :crossed: 

私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから

but not all people born with a penis or a vagina identify as male or female

According to SCIENCE. There are 2 confirmed genders for the human race. Male and Female. We know this because of genetic makeup and chromosomes. We have mapped the human body up and down and we know what exists and what doesn't exist. 

EVEN if you are transgendered logic would say you would either have to be identified as a male or a female. Pick one. We only need 2. If you have some kind of complex that won't allow you to fully live unless you can be appreciated for your own made up "designation" that's fine but crying and throwing a pissy fit because your "identification" that you made up out of thin air isn't in the list is the reason why people will always have a hard time understanding it. 

Everyone's like "jeeze I wish everyone would get the way I feel" but c'mon when the rules of identification are changing every 3 hours why even bother trying to learn and accept it? They might call you "baked muffin flour female" one day and the next you've moved on to "shifting male morphing female" the next day and then you're all pissed off at them for not getting it right. 

This is literally absurd. 

 

 

bruh you just mixed gender with sex

and no, there are no 2 sexes, there are 3 - male, female and mixed ( hermaphrodite)
