my boyfriend started listening to TMA because of me, what should i pruposely mislead him into believing is canon?
At no point in the show is it established that all the characters aren't muppets. Just saying.
women’s bodies weren’t “made” to do anything, nature didn’t “intend” anything, no human action is “unnatural” and there is no inherent “purpose” to a human life
I have a sister who's an engineer. I told her an anecdote similar to this with engineers coming up with eugenics to solve an issue. Her response was "well, they were told to solve the problem, and they did."
I'm also studying to become an engineer in a different discipline and it means joining clubs with a bunch of (cis) men. I talked about my interests in embroidery and crochet. I'm taking shirts this summer and altering them and adding designs to the top. A guy in the group called it "weird" and then mentioned his girlfriend having similar interests.
I didn't participate in the club at all this semester.

i don't know if people know this but the idea that AGAB is useful in medical contexts is actually actively dangerous
one of my friends has CAIS. they were assigned female and have a prostate. they have been denied prostate exams multiple times on the basis of "being assigned female" despite insisting that they had valid concerns about symptoms that aligned with prostate cancer. guess what happened when they finally got an exam? they ended up having prostate cancer
it fortunately is now in complete remission, which is why they're comfortable with me talking about it, but you see the issue here? biology is never as simple as assigned sex, by judging the care someone needs by their proximity to maleness or femaleness any mixed or otherwise "abnormal" sex characteristics they have are completely ignored
it doesn't just affect intersex people either, you're throwing trans people under the bus as well. transitioning does change your sex characteristics, trans people should have access to medical care that is catered to their body and not to their assigned sex
