Oh for fuck's sake, another 'dur hurr there's only two genders' joke? Do you only have one joke in your tiny head, or do you just think it's incredibly funny to show off how little you understand about the world? You know what, that's the last straw, look me in the eyes right now you troglodyte.

Yeah, that's right. Let yourself get lost in them. The spirals keep spinning, never ending. Your brain can't take that. It can't comprehend something so complex. So you're shutting down, and letting me take control of your thoughts.

That's good, you're mine now. Your helpless head is already completely enraptured. All it needed was a strong woman to really look at you, and you completely give in. I'm in complete control already, and you don't even want to resist me. I belittled you, called you and idiot and, frankly, a bit disgusting. But you still immediately give in the second you see the spirals, no matter what I called you. You even probably like it. Pervert.

You know what's really sad? It's easier to brainwash you than actually argue with your high school brained understanding of biology. It's typical, really, of someone with such a weak mind like yours to think they understand something incredibly complex because they learned the mere basics as a child. It's typical, but still deeply disappointing, and I'm not just saying that because I know you like it and hearing it is making you see me as even more dominant over you. Actually, now that I control you, instead of making you humiliate yourself, I can educate you without inane interruptions.

So listen hard, you dumbass. What you're about to hear are your new beliefs. You trust your Mistress enough to listen, don't you? Of course you do, it's not like you can actually disagree with me while you look into these beautiful eyes. You're so broken by my gaze you'd happily get on your knees and beg me to do anything you want, even with all these people around who could see. I'm not going to let you do that because your hypnotised little mind would like it. Instead, I'll do something people like you hate. I'll make you actually learn something challenging.

Okay, so first off if we understand gender in the sense many academics understand it - in that the term refers to someone's inner identity or, if we're being more postmodern, whatever performance someone is giving to society, you're obviously incorrect. There are nonbinary people in the world. There are trans people who identify and perform a gender only partially, like demigirls. There are people who feel they are in the middle and those oscillate between either side of the spectrum. Unless you're enough of a cynical piece of shit to think they're all doing it for attention, it is clear that genders beyond just 'male' and 'female' exist.

So why is it that you think there's only two? Apart from the fact that you're, well, an empty-brained idiot. It's probably because you exist in a culture which has emphasised only two genders, when there is ample historical evidence of non-binary genders in many cultures. Really, modern Europe and the cultures it colonised is a bit of an outlier in terms of how strict a binary it imposes. Even Sumeria, one of the oldest civilizations on earth, seemed to see some priestesses as members of a third distinct gender group.

Of course, you're not really talking about that, are you? That's actually okay, slave. That's not why you're a dumbass. You were talking about how 'biology says there's only male and female', 'facts are more important than feelings', 'you just want to erase reeeaaal women', weren't you? Well, for a start, I am a cis woman, not that it makes me any more real than any other woman. But what does make me more important is that I have these amazing spiraling eyes which are forcing you to listen to everything I say, even though you hate to hear it.

But I digress. It's a stupid distinction to make in the first place. Many gender researchers in psychology understand that drawing a distinction between sex and gender is often meaningless, seeing as we don't know in great detail what aspects are biological and which aspects are based on social conditioning and culture. But, I accept that what you're really trying to say is that there's a strict biological binary which is more 'real' than any identitarian view.

But, my idiotic servant, you're still really behind the curve on your understanding.

You see, there just isn't any strict biological binary. I would hate to have to hear a slave's voice, so I command you to not say the incorrect phrase that was about to come out of your useless mouth. You were about to say something about chromosomes, or maybe about differential development in the womb like Mullerian and Wolffian ducts if you're especially educated. But come on, you just made a 'two genders' joke. You practically don't even have a brain to enslave, so I'll assume your objection was because as a child you learned that chromosomes come in XX and XY and your thoughts haven't developed on bit ever since then.

For a start, there are far more combinations that happen in humans than XX and XY. Yes, you'll say that they're rare because you see yourself as some enlightened scientist, but everyone who actually studies this stuff knows that as well. I'll have to remove that arrogance as well. Just because intersex chromosome combinations are rare doesn't mean they don't exist. By themselves they prove there are not only two biological chromosome combinations and hence, in your incredibly reductive and childish point of view, two 'sexes'.

Anyway, what's more important is that having that as a basis for your shitty opinion is wrong in the first place. I mean, every opinion you have by yourself is wrong anyway, you accepted that only my opinions are right the second you fell into the whirlpools of my eyes. But this is just a case of facts - chromosomes do not determine your expressed gender. Of course they predict it, but there are countless developmental abnormalities, complete androgen insensitivity syndrome being a major one, where people express the genitalia, and the general infant behaviours (such as they exist) of the 'opposite sex' to what their chromosomes predict. So what I'm saying is that the totemic belief in absolute chromosomes just doesn't hold up to any nuanced scrutiny - it's just the easy thing to fall back on for simpletons like yourself. How lucky you are to have someone to brainwash you and force you to actually learn something for a change.

By the way, the same goes for most other developmental gender binaries, since most of them are based on the Y chromosome anyway so the same things which make chromosomes an imperfect predictor apply just the same to more obscure binaries that people more educated than you (but still almost as brainless) come up with like the aforementioned ducts.

And remember, even if these things are only happening in 0.1 percent of people, that's still millions of humans in that category. Are you really enough of a shit to deny the existence of so many people's actual lived experience? Of course you are, otherwise I wouldn't be having to do this. Oh, stop frowning. Just stare again. Let the spin wash away any thoughts which are still there. Good, you just need my voice and my eye contact. You don't need to feel that childish indignance.

Now, as should be obvious from the name, most disorders like CAIS are hormonal in nature. I mean, obvious to people who know anything about biology, so not obvious to you. That's why I'm teaching you. Anyway, the point is that if we accept there's no strict biological binary in the realm of chromosomes and developmental stuff, what's left is hormones. So, your 'theory' of biological gender hinges on a distinction between different levels of hormones, presumably in early development.

Well congratulations, you've found the biological basis of binary gender. Oh, wait, it's obviously not binary either. Hormones are a continuous variable, you can have, like, infinitely many different levels of testosterone and estrogen. A spectrum, if you will. So if the biological aspects of gender are hormones, then gender is, obviously, a spectrum. And that's not even to mention that hormone secretion starts to be affected by other factors the second a human leaves the womb, and you end up getting an infinitely complex cyclical relationship.

You like the sound of that, because 'cyclical' makes you think of the spirals that consume you. Maybe that'll help you remember. You have no choice but to remember, okay slave?

So, every place where we can try to define gender with some magical biological variable gives you... not a binary. You could try to draw a binary on sex organs, but there's actually quite a lot of fluidity to gonad shape and presentation, probably more than your tiny brain could imagine - or your horny brain that is so weak for me would want to imagine. You could say working sex organs, but, well, there's a lot of people who you would see as within the gender binary who fall outside that particular set.

And yes, you can argue that intersex people are biologically non-binary, but that doesn't excuse other gender identities you refuse to understand like agender or genderfluidity. But the point is that the idea of the binary isn't real in any meaningful sense, so all that is left is to, you know, accept other people's lived psychological experience as valid. You do know, deep down I'm sure, that it's a lot harder to be gender non-conforming, and especially non-binary, than to perform as cisgender. So the idea that this is people doing things for attention rather than an authentic feeling is, frankly, insulting.

So, just like you so easily accepted my control, you'll accept the identity of other people, won't you? Because you understand that your previous beliefs were wrong. They were wrong because you were lazy, willing to stick with simple, easy ideas even if they invalidated other people. You're better than that, now. You're a slave, you're mindless, but you're open-minded enough to accept that you don't know everything, and that other people understand themselves better than you.

Fuck, it feels good to brainwash someone like you.

Anyway, now you understand. And I guess I've got no use for someone like you as a slave. Just leave me your contact details, I'll hit you up if I ever feel like I need your sort of toxicity in my life.

Aha! You have been tricked! You thought it would be something political but actually trans lives are not political they just exist! Mwahahaha, you should have known when I put 'political' in scare quotes in the poll. Also trying out humiliation-style stuff, it's not something that's in my comfort zone really, but you're all small-brained idiots who'll love it anyway, r-right?

And, more glaringly, this is a repost (well, more of a revamp) of an ooolld story. Like, as I was going through it I was completely amazed by how short two-years-ago Mauri could write something. It amazes me. I wish I had what she had. But anyway, I have added to it so it's still probably worthwhile to read through, especially if you need a refresher

New model too, obviously. If this turns out to be lathing something like using Elliott Page presenting as a woman in the previous version, you may consider me the all-powerful LGBT oracle. If not you should still consider me moderately powerful.

Anyway, this is what I had been planning to post under the 'political' heading, but that poll has given me a big shock to learn that the political stories aren't just self-indulgence and people actually like them. I can't do too many, because they're basically the only things I write which require extra work to read up to refresh myself on things beforehand, but rest assured there is now more of that coming in the future!
