If you’d like help understanding those hard to follow parts of the article, I’d be happy to explain them in more detail. In fact, I might be able to edit the article to improve its clarity if you can tell Me what parts are lacking.
The bottom paragraph and beyond were the parts I had trouble understanding.
I really respect that you wrote an entire article by yourself, especially on such an interesting subject. It’s great to see things made by members of the community :)
Is it the part about humans having divine genders that’s confusing, or the part about gods being nonbinary and Aphrodite having a divine, nonhuman femininity?
Well, I mention gods being nonbinary as a supporting point for the idea that gender is informed by religion, and I mention divinegender humans because a lot of people are tranphobic against divinegender people, and I think right after someone learns that all genders are religiously informed is the best time to tell someone about people who are often attacked for the religion in their genders.
Or from another point of view, the point of the article is “Don’t be transphobic to people with religious genders”, the fact that all genders are religious is an appeal to empathy to get people to not be transphobic, and I talk about two-spirit, bissu, and divinegender as examples of people with religious genders not to be transphobic to.
Hmm, what you said makes sense. How exactly does worship hierarchy relate to that? Isn’t your point to respect the religions of trans people no matter what?
I’m referencing these three paragraphs. I realized I selected the wrong ones previously.
Ps. Thanks for taking the time to respond and clarify

Each paragraph makes sense but I’m having trouble understanding how they connect to the main point.
