Misdirected. You are asking gfm7175. He asked you some questions. You are just evading. Answer the questions put to you.

He thinks any equivocation is a fallacy. He is wrong.
Your equivocation is correct. The two words are synonyms.

This is why talking to you donuts is a waste. You dont read and reply only to the voices in your head. I don't give a fuck what you want to be called. I will call you whatever you like and whatever I like. That's not the issue. The issue is when you demand that I believe you actually are what you claim to be. Btw if it's not difficult or painful they why does it matter if I call bill sue or not? I'm not sure and its never been explained why does what a transfreak want matter more than what others want?
You don’t have to “believe” shit, asshole. Your obsession with trans people is obvious with your endless posts about them.
What do they want? The same thing gays wanted when you fucktards fought gay marriage. The same treatment that most of us take for granted.

You went completely off the rails huh dick weed? If I don't have to believe shit then fuck off. Understand that you retarded imbecile?
LOL
Limiting words to your definition and not using the same definition as others are using is a logical fallacy. Gender is not the same as sex when discussing gender identity.

Aren't you limiting the word gender to your definition?
But is the same when discussing sex?
I know what a synonym is. I also know that while words may have similar meanings they often have different connotations or implications and using them as synonyms will often leave someone confused or unclear as to meaning.
Other synonyms of huge are vast, colossal, humongous and immense but no reader would react the same to following phrases:
The huge sky
The vast sky
The colossal sky
the humongous sky
the immense sky.
Congratulations. You just realized this discussion is about which definition we are using. I pointed this out quite some time ago.

Yes sir!
If he were Smart Richard Saunders, he would respond to my post by saying: "Whoops, I really didn't think that one through, did I? Thanks for explaining my mistake to me". Which at that point I would respond: "No worries... such mistakes happen from time to time... now you have an opportunity to learn."
However, since he is Stupid Richard Saunders, he will instead most likely attempt to blame ME for his poor reasoning, thus never learning from his mistakes... He'll maybe mindlessly throw around the word 'strawman' for good measure...
Let's see how this one plays out.

Thanks for responding to my post to you, gfm7175.
Is it a paradox to talk out of both sides of your foot?
This one played out days ago and you continue to not recognize it.
We are arguing about the definition to use, yours or the standard one used when discussing gender identity.

That's not what I asked you. You said limiting words to "your" definition was a logical fallacy. I just pointed out your logical fallacy by YOUR definition.
So sex and gender mean the same when you want them to but don't mean the same thing when you dont want them to. Got it.

Again by YOUR definition, limiting words to your definition is a logical fallacy.
The problem is that the word gender had a meaning when discussing gender identity and it's meaning was known before the attempt to restrict it to a different meaning.
Most words have more than one meaning. Changing the meaning to always use a definition different than the one originally used in the discussion is the equivocation fallacy.
When discussing gender identity, gender is not synonymous with sex.
The logical fallacy occurs when a person changes the meaning in the middle of a discussion on a topic to a meaning other than the meaning in the original topic.
The term gender in gender identity is not synonymous with sex.

The first sentence makes no sense whatsoever.
Well according to the definition in the link you provided, gender is defined as a psychological and sociocultural trait. Correct or incorrect?

Interesting... I really thought that you'd take the "you just don't understand" angle, blaming me for your poor reasoning... Instead, you're opting to be even MORE ridiculous by trying to counter-claim that the words 'huge' and 'gigantic' mean entirely different things.
Even by YOUR OWN stance of Merriam Webster being The Dictionary, the source of word definitions, your claim here is incorrect. From your own chosen source (Merriam Webster):
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/huge
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gigantic
Your own chosen source, The Dictionary, explains how those words are synonyms re: describing the "exceedingly large" size of something, exactly as I previously told you...
Are you now going to deny the veracity of your own chosen source in an attempt to remain a contrarian instead of simply admitting that you were in error?
Ignoring your error is not going to work either, as I will keep bringing it up over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again... Of course, that could be avoided by a simple "whoops, you were right gfm7175"... but that would be too easy, eh?
