Real talk: I've had this happen a couple of times, and know of many other people who either went through this or believed the same nonsense, with all types and permutations of identities and Southern plumbing between them. And all I'm left with after trying to wrap my head around this thing is a question: can we really blame the people who are doing stuff like this considering Mass Media's been force-feeding us this nonsense from the beginning?

I'm not saying this should imply forgiving the behaviour, not in a million years! I'm just questioning where our collective frustration should be directed.

Genitalia. Meaning the genders and sexualitiesb of the people are not what determines their behaviour

Ah, thank you. Of course. I was confused by “between them”, thinking it only referred to the southern plumbing.

Yeah, sorry if it came out abstractly, I have an unfortunate flair for needlessly complicated sentences...

That's what I meant, that it's a gender-/sexual orientation-/hormonally-/identity-neutral mentality.
