Is gender necessary?


"Well I, I wanna tell you a secret
You can take your double standard love and keep it"
"Hermit The Frog" - Marina And The Diamonds
 
So far, I've written about male and female stereotypes (entry about this) and the great fault in usual female behavior when it comes to relationships (entry about this). But, what's the origin of all these problems? Do we really need to separate between men and women? Well, I would say no: nowadays, we've got so many alternatives that make biologically straight pairs useless; when we fall in love with someone we do it because of a person, not because of a man or a woman.

But, then, why have we spent more than fifty centuries conserving that useless division? Regardless of religious issues during History, the most evident reason why we cut our society in between two genders is the domination of one of them. In modern times, the most common situation (and pretty much the only one, to be
honest) is the ownage men do on women, giving to half of population some kind of privilege but also chains and figurated prisons to the other half.

And, eventually, women opened those prisons!
Luckily, since the nineteenth century, women started to push the walls of those prisons and set themselves free progressively. That's why I'm totally sure the division between men and women is not benefitting anyone anymore, so, why don't we just erase it from society? It's good for nothing and it hurts half of the world's population. What if I like a diva's dress and I want to wear it along with my male attributes? Is it a crime? Of course it isn't my case, I just want to get rid of those attributes, but I'm sure you understand my point: there is no such situation as one where gender stereotypes are useful or good: if you truly loved your lover, you wouldn't care about their sex or gender (which is NOT the same, since gender is a social construction while sex is a biological truth).

That's why, here and now, I want to say: I am NOT A TRANSGENDER, I am TRANSSEXUAL. I don't care about my gender anymore, I don't want to belong to the female gender since the female gender is a social deillusion. I just want to be a sexually female being: I'm talking about sex, not gender; sex is having a vag*na while gender is being one.
