    I love jokes like these, other variants I’ve heard are

    “Libtard can you even tell me the difference between Sex and Gender if they’re REALLY two different things?” “Well it’s quite simple, you see the difference is that I didn’t have gender with your mother last night.”

    “There’s only two sexes!” “You’re right! There are only two sexes, the sex I have with your mom, and the sex I have with your dad.”

      Just FYI, telling them the difference between sex and gender is the difference between biology and psychology usually shuts them right up.

        That’s not really how yo mama jokes work, in an insult sense. They work by implying that suddenly you’re, socially speaking, their father, the rest is flourish. Like the maid uniform your mom wore last night.

          These types of jokes “work” because people consider it an insult when you somehow suggest their mother is promiscuous, or fat, or whatever. When you wonder why that’s sexist ask yourself why these kind of jokes aren’t told as: “Me and my friends gangbanged your father.”

            But I do make father jokes. Sometimes it seems like you people want to be offended. I feel like it should be ok to make jokes exclusively about moms. It should be ok to exclusively make joke’s about how much your dad sucks (deez nuts).

            “Me and my friends gangbanged your father.”

            FYI, in the Middle East things like this are used to a great effect of starting a fist fight (possibly a knife fight) as well.

            They do happen, but you’re right they’re usually centered in bigotry. I think “banged your mom” is more of a dominance play, as iirc there have been times where women have used “I fucked your dad last night” in a similar way, but it strongly skews the other way due to toxic masculinity and homophobia. Saying I fucked your dad last night as a man talking to another man would be suggesting the father is gay or bi, and that your yourself are as well.

            Why would anyone care about that? I already explained how they work: A new man moving into a mother-son relationship is not exactly a trivial thing, you’re completely ignoring even the concept to then assert, without argument, that it must all be due to sexism.

              I care for that because I don’t think that sexism and misogyny are in any way better or more justified than other forms of bigotry.

  • To answer the question implied ( how do lovers with non-hetero bits get it on? ) the answer is any way they can. The sex is not about making sure the parts fit but engaging in physical intimacy and expressing love (or at least extreme horniness) for each other, and so any given couple is going to figure something out, even if its frottage or oral or whatever.

      That’s really confusing for me since in German we have a seperated word for engaging in physical intimacy/extreme horniness that excludes sex. The closest to that in English would be to make out with someone.

        That’s the case for a lot of modern Christian ministries, though they’ll hum and haw about circumstances, such as if an infertile woman should have sex with her husband.

        The scholarly consensus regarding Paul’s proscriptions is that even childbearing is inappropriate since the apocalypse is imminent. That sex is only allowed to sate men whose lust burns too hot (or something to that effect.)

        Obviously, the apocalypse didn’t happen before that generation died, and Christians had to renegotiate with their dogma.

        It’s also noted that there’s no such thing as rape or consent at the time, in that in any sexual encounter, the dominating / penetrating individual is the one taking power and is presumed to have agency. So when two guys get it on, the top is guilty of adultery or fornication (and is killed for such sins) but the bottom is free of responsibility. He is killed anyway because the incident pollutes the land with bad spirit and requires the death to regain its purity (which is really rather chthonic for what becomes a very spirity dogma).

        There’s a lot of apologetics devoted to navigating this because otherwise modern Christians have to contend with the lack of consensual sex, the chattelization of women and active participation in institutionalized sex slavery (non-Hebrews captured in war were totally allowed to be sex slaves), so it’s all a mess.

      There’s also hermaphrodite connectors, connecting any way whatsoever. And then there’s connectors which are assigned male or female but when you look closely enough it’s not so clear any more: The general rule is that whenever a stiff conductor mates with a a springy conductor then the stiff one is male and the springy one female, but then have a look at e.g. DB connectors (serial, parallel, VGA cables) and you see that the ground/shielding is stiff on the side that is springy for all the signal lines, and the male connector thus completely envelops the female one.

      CEE 7/3 sockets (German) are unambigiously female, while CEE 7/5 sockets (French) have a male earth, and then you have bisexual plugs, CEE 7/7, mating with both.

        Isn’t the rule that the female connector should be closer to the power source and the male closer to the appliance? So you don’t accidentally shock yourself.

          Live conductors should never be exposed, but that doesn’t mean that they need to be female as in be the springy part, they can also be stiff conductors that are shielded somehow. Take say DIN 56905, hermaphrodite power cables for stage lighting and stuff

      Biological designed womb? Don’t be stupid.

      Iphones are obviously harvested from an Apple tree©.

  • The analogy with the plugs and sockets is so lame anyways.

    They want to compare a plug and a socket but the analogy falls apart once one takes a moment to realise that the penis analogy, a plug, is a receiver for electricity.

      The egg needs male pee to be ready for fertilization.

      So the egg travels up the urethra, to the balls (where we know pee is stored), is made ready, then travels home.

      Then the jizzum is released, and chases the egg. If it arrives at the perfect moment the egg is implanted on the lining of the womb.

      Activating it with an RFID antenna results in a person.

    • The female uses her ovipositor and extracts a single egg cluster from her egg sac. She then shoves it into the sperm bath located in the posterior thorax of the subdued male. Once the ovicluster is fertilized she will choose to depart, letting the male live. Or she will decapitate the male. Or she will consume the male, in whole or in part.

      Once fertilized the female then finds and subdues a suitable host. Using her ovipositor, she attaches the ovicluster to the host’s underside.

      The eggs soon hatch triggered by the warmth of the host. Dozens of larvae burrow into the host and consuming it from the inside out to fuel their own growth. Instinctively, the larvae avoid vital organs until no other edible parts remain.

      Once the host is consumed, the larvae exfiltrate the host’s remains in search for a nearby suitable place it can pupate, making its own cocoon from available plant matter and its own saliva.

      No, it’s a great analogy. For the purposes of electrical conductivity, the gender of the socket is really just an expression of the cultural norms where they were made. There are hundreds of different socket genders, and you can easily convert one type to another depending on what you want to accomplish. Sounds like they’re really just advocating for gender affirming care.

      There are 3 types of people in this world when it comes to gender and sexual identity

      Homophobes(and other equivalents)

      People in the LGBT community

      Straight people

      Homophobes are literally gay people in denial! Straight people would just go on with their day

            I’d say there’s two groups of primary homophobes: People who are themselves gay, and people with overactive disgust circuitry – “If I (personally) am disgusted then it’s wrong for everyone”. The third group would be people simply following social impulse but that’s also the case for the gay ones, doubling down on homophobia to make sure they’re still accepted, thereby driving the whole thing in the first place.

              I’m on break at work, so I don’t really have to to get past the abstract but.

              Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli.

              I feel like it’s a big assumption to conclude homosexual desire from this. Like sure, I can understand why you would, but I’ve definitely gotten erections from stimulus I didn’t find sexually arousing, especially if they illicited some other strong response.

              Pre-transituon I used to get rage-boners, sad-boners even disgust-boners. Estrogen has mostly eradicated unexpected erections for me, but that isn’t really a factor here.

                What. I get horny boners, and night boners. During puberty I got random boners. It might be that trans brains don’t (always) come with the control circuitry that the external hardware expects and it’s getting confused, it certainly doesn’t sound like ordinary cismale boner patterns.
