    No???

    Of course privileged classes exist. I just described one and described a way to lessen the impact of its existence, since eliminating it entirely is completely impossible.

    So too is the case with infants having names and genders.

      You mean like not assigning people to classes we know can be incorrect they then would have to change?

        what. is. your. alternative.

        I swear you must not be reading my comments. How do you refer to a child for the first five years of their life if giving them a name, even a temporary one, is transphobic?

          Not shoving people into boxes we know aren’t accurate based on a 2 second glance at baby genitals.

          Why is that even a thing you want to do?

              I notice first off you’re conveniently ignoring how I have been referring to sex designations for the past several posts and instead exclusively focusing on my earlier statement about names.

              Makes me doubt your faith, that.

              I will broaden and ask why you think any imposition of a gender on a person who has not yet informed you what it is is laudable or appropriate, be that marker on a certificate or a gendered name?
