Post No. 3,484 - Performative gender behaviour is ALWAYS dangerously, damagingly, TOXIC - amathiac, anti-spiritual, anti-human rights, antiwisdom

In the last week or so, one of the media outlets I trust commented on a report in a conservative rag that a cishet male was calling for conscription to be reintroduced - which is an idea those weak-minded (i.e., lacking in critical thinking), emotionally-incompetent, easily-controlled sock-puppets like because it is simple and crude and Newtonian enough for them to comprehend, and thus they “think” that it will work - because they “think” they understand it. 

The reality is that militaristic lifestyles, with often bullying and deliberate psychological breaking & abuse of people, are unsuited for the majority of people, and potentially rob the world of considerable human potential. They are social Darwinism writ large. 

It is also often tied up with patriarchal views of what gender is supposed to be (and, despite their protestations otherwise, they are describing gender, not biological sex) - views which reached their extreme under fascism, including the fascism which holds sway in the USA today, and is seeping into other nations. 

It leads to behaviours which are performative - NOT genuine, and quite toxic and destructive. From “Is Masculinity Just a Performance? | The Lie of Modern Masculinity”   https://youtu.be/jeuj1Dd3gM8   “masculinity is a performance to provide proof for the patriarchy ... but the role can be changed, and has through history, as it has no biological basis”.  

Women are also subject to the same sort of problem - toxic femininity, and I have just come across a new article which helps explain that problem: 

• “Femininity as a Masking Tool: How Gender Performance Gives Neurodivergent Women Cover While It Consumes Them”   https://bridgettehamstead.substack.com/p/femininity-as-a-masking-tool-how   

Don’t be duped by this - seek to be authentic. 

 

Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider: 

• there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking”;  
• I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
