Man the memories keep flooding back.
For about half a year, I was substituting while I worked on a vocational cert. One day, I had to bring the kids in to the school's science fair.
Like half the projects were shit like "Does Gender Identity Correlate to Intelligence?" and similar nonsense.
Granted, this school always largely served as a refuge for socially incompetent weenies who would've been eaten alive at a "normal" school. When I was a student there, we had a group of kids who actually fucking wore pin-on tails.

As I understand it, the postmodernization of gender is intended to liberate oneself from the social or emotional baggage of their biological sex. Both men and women have certain social expectations placed upon their behavior; men must be X, women must not be Y, normal people shouldn’t do Z. If you experience some emotion or trait that society deems deviant, there is subtle social pressure to conceal or suppress it, which causes emotional distress. Declaring yourself to be both genders, neither, or somewhere in between, relieves that social pressure and allows you to express your feelings fully.
Just one problem: the other 99% of the world doesn’t give a fuck about your feelings. To them, you’re still just a man or a woman, albeit with some character traits that are atypical for your gender. Pointing this out causes distress, since it reinforces the gender norms that distressed them in the first place, especially if they have spent too much time in a hugbox where their deviant traits are celebrated. Ironically, such groups create their own code of social rules, and ruthlessly expel those who do not abide by them.
The hypersensitivity to contrary views is very telling, since it shows that they are still very much bound by the dominant social paradigm. They’ve just gone underground, and tried to pretend the outside world doesn’t exist by surrounding themselves with people who agree with them, which is easy to do on the Internet. All this does is redistribute the emotional burden of being deviant. They sure as hell aren’t liberated, they’ve just created a new social prison that is more palatable. (Other groups do this too, such as the fat acceptance crowd.)
And of course, there are some who do it because it’s hip and trendy, and they want to be popular and special snowflakes too. They also get an emotional shot in the arm that comes from being perceived as being well-liked and cool. What better way to express your rebelliousness and freedom than by agreeing with everything your social betters tell you?
I think all of this stems from a desire to protect kids from harm. Helicopter parents who see their child in distress swoop down to soothe them, and tell them they don’t have to do that thing they find uncomfortable. But what happens when said uncomfortable activity is basic social interaction? As they retreat into their own social bubble, their ability to handle other stressors in their own lives atrophies. No wonder that their reaction to reality butting into their lives is incoherent rage and/or running back to the hugbox in tears.

I've never met an sjw/tumblrina irl but holy shit do i want to. their beliefs have no basis in reality so seeing one attempt a legitimate arguement would be priceless. i guess none of them ever really leave their childhood bedrooms or lgbtqiapdhksksjjsxyz+ safe spaces though, it truly is the result of helicopter parenting at its finest
I think I spend too much time with sjws because I think I get most of those letters. Not sure what the second p is supposed to be though (assuming one is for "poly")

They also believe in polysexuality, too.

They're all just fancy ways of saying "bi"; but bisexuality is evil for some reason.

Because bi means two and that hurts trans feelings because wut about people who identify as [insert gender here] and not as woman/man?.

Had to put up with the resident troon at a party last night. He's not even trying at this point - even OPL and Phil look more feminine, I wish I was joking - but still insists on his skeevy teenage girl name and pronouns. 
He has a tendency to invent, eventually retire stage personas and characters (imho more proof that this is all pure self-loathing and he needs help not trannyshit) so hopefully this is almost over.
The term bisexual acknowledges that sexual orientation is based on the two sex organs instead of muh jendah feefees. Without that arguement, how are those poor suffering trannies supposed to guilt and badger gay/straight people into sexual favors?

But don't trans people consider themselves the gender they've transitioned to? I thought trans shouldn't count as a gender apart?

Genuine trans people do, I guess. They just want to live their life as the person/identity they've always felt like. But we're talking about trannies here: being a man or woman isn't special enough, they need their trans*lgtbabcxyz+*² status to feel special and to deal with any kind of rejection (because it's not because they're a shit person, it's because transhomonoirphobia)

These are SJW's we're talking about here, they are experts on being offended on the behalf of people who really don't give a shit, but SJW's think they do, or should

The argument I hear a lot is the one that says "trans women shouldn't have to present feminine in order to be considered feminine.", which makes some sense, a woman is still a woman even in male fashion. But once you combine that with "trans women shouldn't have to have a vagina to be considered feminine" you have to wonder how you quantify what is and isn't a woman/man. It's clearly not about genitals, or fashion or even the way you act. The answer seems to be about how you feel, which is inherently ridiculous because that's not an actual thing, it's just an emotion.
This is likely why you see Tumblristas say "feeling masculine today". Because to them, gender/sex/whatever isn't something that you just are and has no baring on your life. It's an emotion that's subject to context and mood. This is why it's justifiable to switch from transwoman, to trans-lesbian-souled to faekin demiman. It's about feelings. They get offended because you don't respect their 'identity', but in reality, you don't respect someone who can't keep their emotions in check and are more hassle than they're worth.

I will happily put money on every single one of those "roomates" occupying the same few pounds of addled grey matter in the head of a single person.Not 100% an IRL encounter but, was looking for apartments/rooms in my neighborhood and found this gem...

My main problem with this argument is that the types who always bring it up, that your gender has nothing to do with your presentation, are also the types who go nuclear when complete strangers get their pronouns of the day wrong. You can believe that your gender isn't tied into your presentation (which is honestly not something I disagree with) but, you also have to accept that the majority of the real world outside twitter/tumblr social bubbles doesn't think that and is gonna assume your gender based on what you look like. If you're dressed in a feminine way and make no efforts in any other way to masculinize your body or appearance, you have no grounds to get mad when someone doesn't automatically call you "sir" - something these personalitygendered types fail to realize.
