My guess would be that the left ones are old and difficult to read books professors like precisely because of that, and the right are books which explain things in a more understandable way. But that’s just a guess based on that that’s exactly how I, as a former physics major, would use this meme for physics books.

No but if you like girls and then realise you are also a girl you can go from “I’m a straight guy” to “I’m a gay woman”

trans girls are people who were previously thought to be boys and figured out that they are a girl later.

Also, I’m choosing to word it differently than you did and I want to explain why. For many trans people, it’s not so much a process of “turning into another gender”, but more a process of “figuring out what gender you actually are”. They might say that they have been a girl all along, but neither them nor people around them knew. So saying that they were a boy before (instead of saying they were thought to be a boy before) could be considered hurtful.

“Interessierte”? Wer unbedingt daran “interessiert” ist, das N-Wort zu lesen und rassistische Zeichnungen anzugucken bei dem ist ordentlich was schiefgelaufen

You said:

Sometimes the software does not reflect the hardware.

If gender is the software and the body is the hardware, this is kind of the “born in the wrong body”-stuff many people still use and it implies that there is a kind of hardware/software combination that fits together and a kind of combination that does not.

Could be because I reported it for being discriminating towards non-binary people because you negated their existence.

And it breaks my heart every time I hear yet another story of someone killing their own passion, numbing themselves down to the point that they become unable to enjoy what they formerly loved, just to “fit in” a society that doesn’t accept deviation from the perceived norm.

Yeah I feel like that was an issue for me as well and one of the reasons I either repressed or resented parts of myself for a long time. And I’m glad the journeys I had the last couple of years (the one I described in the post and also the journey of overcoming depression) not only helped me accept those parts of myself, but be happy and proud that I have them.
