Common mistake that people make is,

They see a penis and say its a boy.

No, you dont know that. He didnt say what he is yet.

Gender is what person wants to be.

They looked at me and said "its a boy".

No, I am not.

Why would you assume my gender as soon as I am born?

I can be whatever I want to be. I am not limited to rules such as "penis = boy". 

No!

Penis does not mean boy.

Boy is someone who wants to be a boy, not someone who is forced into roles assigned by society's religious dogma.

The oppression of the religious psychopaths will never return!

It all begins with those little things, really.

First they call you a boy.

Then they tell you that you are Christian.

Then they circumcise you.

Then they spank you.

Then they impose their values on you.

Then they tell you who to hate.

Then they start controlling your life more and more by telling you that you shouldnt be gay or atheist.

Then they tell you about hell.

By the way, I want to burn in hell eternally. I think heaven is for virgin men who are pussies, as the Bible says that only 144000 people entered heaven and they were all virgin men. So yeah, I am going to hell and thats where I will burn like a real man. Its time to burn!!!

Words had an original intent, for a reason.

The same words are now appropriated for other reasons.

They just assumed child's gender, which is wrong.

Gender is the social manifestation of one's biological sex. And the constellation of gendered behaviors are typically associated to particular physical characteristics. You can't have it both ways: either one's sex or gender can be physically identifiable or it can't. And if it isn't physically identifiable, then there really is no point to a man dressing up like woman, and vice versa, or having gender/sex reassignment surgery, or hormone therapy. If gender/sex is fluid, then why does typical behavior indicate anything but.

To me, 

Gender is 

1. Certain characteristics

Or 

2. Desire to have certain characteristics.

So if someone desires to have a penis, that person is a boy even if he doesnt actually have a penis.

Then by that description, "having a penis" would make a person a boy. The desire to have one in and of itself isn't quantifiable. A person presumably wants to "have a penis" because that would make him feel like a boy--i.e. "having penises" is associated with the identification of males.

Intersex people are born with both male and female sex characteristics. Someone perhaps has an underdeveloped penis and a vaginal opening or uterus. Or someone has a vulva and a large clitoris which looks like a penis. Other intersex people do have the fully-developed sex characteristics of 1 sex but a mix of female and male hormones, chromosomes or genes.
Having an intersex body does not cause pain. It’s not unhealthy, or something that needs to be fixed.
