Its like the debate bro thing of asking for "sources" or "proof". By itself, its a reasonable request and it looks that way from the outside. But how much effort can another human being put into providing proof/sources to a nearly limitless number of requests before having to take a step back and thinking that maybe the demand is in bad faith. That the intent isn't to find clarification but to eat away at another persons time and emotional well being.
Agreed. I can also easily imagine we're twisting ourselves into knots, but that might be reactionary bs, too. Seems like a obvious joke, and the joke being there are more than two genders, but maybe not. :galaxy-brain: ?
That's what I'm thinking too.

True, but sometimes a joke can be allowed to die.
