“big strong boy / little cute girl”
in Melbourne, 2006
Some interesting info: This is very reminiscent of the Baby X experiments, in which it was discovered that people reacted differently to a baby’s behavior depending on whether or not they believed the baby to be male or female. People were asked to watch a video of a baby reacting to a startling image (a Jack-in-the-box popping up), and describe the baby’s emotional state. When people believed the baby to be female, they described the baby as being scared and upset; when they thought the baby was male, they perceived the baby to be angry. This was very telling, as it showed that literally identical behavior could be construed differently based on the perceived gender of the subject.
(Some radfem who somehow didn’t see the irony added the above comment, so I’m stealing it. They immediately ascribe predatoriness and anger to trans women for stuff they have no problem with in cis women, all because they perceive trans women as males - and vice versa, they ascribe innocence to cis women even in situations where they’ve commited clear wrongs, because of how they perceive their gender.)
