Trans Joyleft is 7mo girl Mary, right is 8yo boy Tishka
Awwwww 3 adorable things
waaaaaaa mrrrr meeoow :3
Mine:
so cute
They are very sweet. Especially the orange one, who licks me like a dog. Occasionally she'll bite just a little bit to see if I'm dead and she can eat me now.
The tortoise shell is very playful but not as affectionate. Except with the orange one. They are clearly in a very committed lesbian relationship.
I find it very weird when trans people of all people assign gender to animals based on their biological sex....
I don't. There's nothing wrong with referring to a person or animal by a gender. With humans, you can ask what their gender is, but animals don't care, so going by their sex is fine.
I don't think cats have a social structure complex enough to even have a concept of gender, so they probably don't care how I refer to them
Probably not. I didn't say I thought the cats would be offended, just that it's weird.
we even gender things that have no sex - like boats
Yeah, are you agreeing with me that's it's weird?
hm, I guess I've been socialized to think it's normal ... in some obvious sense it's weird, but no more weird than us thinking of pets as morally the same as humans, for example - we anthropomorphize and project things onto objects and animals that aren't there, we read intention where there is none, etc. - so in the same way we project our human experience of gender onto non-human animals. In some sense that feels entirely natural and consistent with other human tendencies. But yeah, it's weird when we examine it the right way.
I too find it offensive when the french misgender my table
also i cant not assign gender to animal because of russian which has grammatical gender, Mary jumped would be "мэри прыгнуЛА" in feminine form or tishka "тишка прыгнуЛ", so there everything is gendered so i have a habbit, word dog is by default in feminine form "собакА" word puppy only in masculine form "щёноК", cats are also gendered , male cat is "кот" female cat "кошка" , tiger, male "тигр", female "тигрица", also profession names exclusivly in male form , eg there only "психолог"(psycholog) "водитель"(driver), "психологиня" sounds weird and usually as insult "водительница" never heard this word, but we have in everyday use "уборщица" (feminine form cleaner)...... everything is overgendered, but random people doesnt gender me at all to unknown or higher status people we say "вы" not "он" "она" is unrespectful usually threaded as insult, yes ppl can say "мужчина" (men) "молодой человек" "парень" (young men) or "мальчик" (boy), or "женщина" (women) or "девушка" (young women) or "девочка" (girl), but i never heard is outside atleast in my region, my region native language is bashkort and in tatar and bashkort no fucking pronouns no gendering only "ул сулей" (they saying), russian language lesson... also seems like french is gendered
im really hope that im not misgendering cats , how to speak with them? okay they dont care they not in human society, but what if tishka feel gender dysphoria about not having balls and testosterone after orchie?
My mother speaks russian and named our first cat "кошка". She's not a terribly sentimental or imaginative woman.
heh really
also intersex cats are exists woaa
also tishka have orchiectomy)))) so they no longer a boy
they are nonbinary woaaaa
