“[...] The proportion of men must be reduced to and maintained at approximately ten percent of the human race.”
I imagine females will also be reduced to 10%. Gender is pointless. I know I’d like to be (sexually) female sometimes, futanari (is there an english word for this?) sometimes, and male sometimes, and the rest of the time something totally different. Probably with tentacles. I think I’d like to be totally sexless sometimes too.
When you spend enough time on certain places on the internet, radical feminists look like conservatives on gender issues.

Indeed. Reading about the details of sex between one “male” and one “female” partner as though it’s the only kind of sex, really reads to me like trying to enforce a (outdated and sexist) traditional view of how humans are supposed to self-identify and relate to each other.
Technically accurate, but not general enough. A futanari, as I understand, is a person who has a penis, but otherwise has the physical characteristics typically designated “female” (breasts, wide hips, etc.). A no-op trans woman would fit this description, but so would someone who started out with the typical “female” phenotype but had their genitals modified and kept the rest of their body the same. (As far as I know, this hasn’t happened in real life, but it’s theoretically possible.) Also, though I’m not aware of any such condition, I suppose there could be an intersex condition that produces a “futanari” phenotype. (If anyone is aware of one, I’d be curious to hear about it.)
Depending on what you mean by futanari, ‘hermaphrodite’ or ‘shemale’ are common, though the latter is almost surely slang (and checking what Google has to say on the subject is almost surely NSFW).
Well, by that link, both “transvestite” and “hermaphrodite” (NTM “it”) were on the list of slurs. I think it was just indicated as a slur for transsexual people, not inherently a slur.
I dunno. The option would be nice, but I think I’d still spend easily 90% of my time as a “male” and I doubt that’s unusual; the categories of “male” and “female” still have meaning if some women spend their holidays as dolphins.

“No-op trans woman”?

Apparently not

I’ll just keep calling it futa. It’s the only word for that mode of being that I have not seen used offensively.
I must say that I haven’t seen it used offensively either. Nor, for that matter, have I seen the sun rise && false.
(ie. Using the word futa may not be optimal for communicating object level content with people who speak English.)
good point
Modern, generally accepted term in english is intersexed
I’m pretty sure “intersexed” is more general than the sense of “futanari”, or at least the sense meant above.
I dunno. The option would be nice, but I think I’d still spend easily 90% of my time as a “male” and I doubt that’s unusual; the categories of “male” and “female” still have meaning if some women spend their holidays as dolphins.
