What about the gender triple point?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

There is no gender triple point because there are only two genders /s

Just kidding, ther obviously is a gender triple point, I just didn't want to admit that my knowledge is too limited to know anything about it.

Solid = conforming

Gas = non-conforming

Fluid = either or both depending on the person at the moment

Super critical = ignores gender as a concept entirely in their self-definition; OR, considers themselves a gender that is based on different standards entirely, like certain religious positions in human cultures where a spiritual leader is considered to be neither/no gender

Don't fluids conform to the shape of their container? In a sense both fluid and gas would be conforming but solid wouldn't be because solids don't conform to the shape of their container.

I can't say I have ever considered myselfgender fluid due to my gender perfectly fitting the shape of its container (ie me)
