People believed and still believe in a lot of fictional things.
I’m not sure why you think “people believed in it” is an argument for the existence of anything. You’re even calling it a myth yourself. You might look up the meaning of that word.
No, gender is a social construct, not a myth. That’s like saying fashion is a myth.
You’re making the most bizarre argument I have ever seen. People believed in Anubis for thousands of years. Please do show me one shred of evidence for the existence of Anubis as a real being.
I see, and you are claiming that all myths that lots of people have believed are true.
Therefore the myth of the intellectually inferior black race is true.
The myth of the inherently greedy Jew is true.
The myth of women being lesser beings than men is true.
The myth that war makes boys into men is true.
Oh, also the myth that you’re born male or female and that’s what you stay until you die? Also true based on your claim.
Drag didn’t say it’s true. Drag said it’s not fictional. Fiction and truth are not a dichotomy. They’re not even mutually exclusive. There’s plenty of things that are both or neither.
What about Noah’s Ark? What about the Argo?
Keep that made up Bible shit out of God’s house (Lemmy)
What about the U.S.S. Enterprise?
I’m not talking about fictional ships.
Also, the Ark famously did not sink.
Then the Bismarck, the Marat or the Yamato? Or Space Battleship Yamato?
Yes? In fact, I haven’t even heard of the Marat.
Also, none of those ships have this many movies about them:

The Argo isn’t fictional. It was a prominent part of the Hellenic religion’s myths. People believed in it.

Gender is also a myth. You might as well argue Socrates wasn’t a famous man, because maleness is a myth.

Really bizarre, yes. But also a waste of time, sorry. Nothing productive will come out of your “discussion” with that person.
Social constructs and myths are the same thing.
I see, and you are claiming that all myths that lots of people have believed are true.
Therefore the myth of the intellectually inferior black race is true.
The myth of the inherently greedy Jew is true.
The myth of women being lesser beings than men is true.

Sure this is what you want to claim?

Argo fuck yourself (speaking of bad movies).
