    Not to sound like a chud but he’s biologically male. His Y chromosomes aren’t just gonna disappear, he’s gonna grow his dick back.

    And it’d happen before the surgery was even over

      Y doesn’t contain “dick information” it contains “dick infrastructure schedule information”. The infrastructure builds and maintains dickindustry.

      The only thing that makes a dick and balls is a hormone signal at a specific stage in a fetus’ life. Wether or not a fetus gets that signal dickindustry or pussyindustry will continue as the existing structures dictate. There are plenty of XY pussy-ovary births and XX dick-testes births due to this fact. The people usually never find out, as they lead normal lives.

      Though I agree with you that her dick would show back up, that’s because her regeneration is magic, not science, and the comic gods said she had a dick and that’s that. It would take a big arc for her to get a pussy, old gods or time travel or dimension hopping or something.

      Maybe a deal with Loki that gave wolverine a snarky, chaotic neutral pussy with its own agenda? Also, stop misgendering our beautiful wolverine!

        “Dick instructive schedule information” will be the subject line of the next email I write

        Also why sex (not gender) is biologically problematic.

          If you ever think you’ve found a binary in biology you’ve probably just found a bimodal distribution. And if there’s any complexity to it whatsoever it’s probably a cluster of them that are interrelated. Biological sex is really fucking complicated and our species has a ton of possible intersex conditions because of it, some of which most people who have will never know.

        Why saying her? Wolverine is a male and uses he. Or did I miss a comic story line.

            isn’t the whole point to not associate plumbing with pronouns?

            if we’re taking this thought experiment to the logical end we should continue to use existing directed pronouns until told otherwise, or ask for clarification politely

        Or have someone else pick up the mantle. They probably changed it back to Logan by now though. I’m not been up to date in the comics

      He was blown it a bunch of tiny little bots once and restored to his prior shape. He’s trapped in that body.

      Yeah, I think trans Wolverine would be even more trapped by biology than other trans persons. She would need some cutting-edge gene-editing treatment to remove/replace the Y across much of the body. As a native CA person, I believe she’ll have quite the wait to get that treatment, and I don’t think there’s a DIY option that could work for her.
